Using a Material-based Dialog Theme with AppCompat

Question

I have an activity in my Manifest I used to style with a Dialog Theme. I can not find how to replace this in AppCompat library.

  <activity
            android:name=".LoginActivity"
            android:theme="@android:styles/Theme.Holo.Dialog" 
            android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize|keyboardHidden"
            android:label="Login" >

Is there a Material-based equivalent?

Answer 1

Java code

    AlertDialog.Builder builder =
                    new AlertDialog.Builder(SecondActivity.this, R.style.AppCompatAlertDialogStyle);
            builder.setTitle("SCRUM");
            builder.setMessage("In the SCRUM methodology a sprint is the basic unit of development. Each sprint is preceded by a planning meeting, where the tasks for the sprint are identified and an estimated commitment for the sprint goal is made, and followed by a review or retrospective meeting where the progress is reviewed and lessons for the next sprint are identified. During each sprint, the team creates finished portions of a product.....");
            builder.setPositiveButton("OK", null);//second parameter used for onclicklistener
            builder.setNegativeButton("Cancel", null);
            builder.show();

Use this theme

  <style name="AppCompatAlertDialogStyle" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.Dialog.Alert">
    <item name="colorAccent">#FFCC00</item>
    <item name="android:textColorPrimary">#FFFFFF</item>
    <item name="android:background">#5fa3d0</item>
</style>

Import support v7 alert dialog

import android.support.v7.app.AlertDialog;

Output like this,
