Question

public static class ProgressDialogFragment extends DialogFragment
{

    public ProgressDialogFragment()
    {
        super();
    }

    @Override
    public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState)
    {
        final ProgressDialog dialog = new ProgressDialog(getActivity());
        dialog.setMessage(getString(R.string.dlg_progress_title));
        dialog.setIndeterminate(true);
        dialog.setCancelable(false);
        return dialog;
    }

    @Override
    public void show(FragmentManager manager, String tag)
    {
        try
        {
            super.show(manager, tag);
        }
        catch (IllegalStateException e)
        {
            Log.d(TAG, e.getMessage());
        }
    }

}
