Howdy.

Instead of displaying text for a few seconds using toast, I would like to display it permanently. At first, I thought toast would be better, now I can't figure out how to simply display it.

Here is the toast code:

public void onClick(View arg0)
{       
    gps = new GPSTracker(TrackingActivity.this);

    if(gps.LocationFound())
    {
        double latitude = gps.getLatitude();
        double longitude = gps.getLongitude();

        Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Your Location is - \nLat: " + latitude + "\nLong: " + longitude, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();    
    }
    ......

Here is what I tried:

public void onClick(View arg0)
{       
        gps = new GPSTracker(TrackingActivity.this);

        if(gps.LocationFound())
        {
            double latitude = gps.getLatitude();
            double longitude = gps.getLongitude();


            TextView textViewObject = new TextView(this);

            textViewObject.setText("Your Location is - \nLat: " + latitude + "\nLong: " + longitude);

            setContentView(textViewObject); 

            ......

I've done some searching and perhaps I should use a dialoge box? However, dialogue insinuates interaction, which is not what I want.

Any suggestiosn? Thanks.
