    Calendar c=Calendar.getInstance();
    c.set(year,monthOfYear,dayOfMonth);

    SimpleDateFormat dateFormat=new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MM-yyyy");
    String date=dateFormat.format(c.getTime());

    {
        listener.returnDate(date);
    }

}
}

Answer 1

write your code like this with ACTION_UP motion event

 @Override
            public boolean onTouch(View view, MotionEvent motionEvent) {
                if (motionEvent.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP) {
                    new DatePickerDialogFragment().show(getFragmentManager(),"DatePicker");                      
                }
                return false;
            }
