[android-developers] Re: Alert input must show the keyboard.

'm showing an input box using AlertDialog. The EditText inside the
dialog itself is automatically focused when I call AlertDialog.show(),
but the soft keyboard is not automatically shown.

How do I make the soft keyboard automatically show when the dialog is
shown? (and there is no physical/hardware keyboard). Similar to how
when I press the Search button to invoke the global search, the soft
keyboard is automatically shown.
