Error creating ArrayAdapter

Question

I am trying to set an adapter to a spinner but I don't know why I am getting the following error:

Cannot resolve constructor 'ArrayAdapter(com.example.app.DialogBox,int, java.util.list)'

Here is the method where I try to populate the spinner and set the adapter for it:

public class DialogBox extends DialogFragment implements View.OnClickListener {

     // To fill the age spinner
    public ArrayAdapter<Integer> populateAgeSpinner () {

        Log.d(TAG ,"populateAgeSpinner - Ini");

        List age =  new ArrayList<String>();
        age.add("");

        for(int i =  18; i <= 100; i++) {
            age.add(Integer.toString(i));
        }

        ArrayAdapter<Integer> spinnerAgeAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<Integer>(this,R.layout.spinner_item_layout, age);
        spinnerAgeAdapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);

        Log.d(TAG ,"populateAgeSpinner - Fi");

        return spinnerAgeAdapter;

    }
}

And this is the spinner_item_layout.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:id="@+id/spinner_text"
        style="?android:attr/spinnerItemStyle"
        android:singleLine="true"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="30dp"
        android:ellipsize="marquee"
        android:background="@color/com_facebook_button_send_background_color"
        android:textColor="#000"
        android:textAlignment="inherit"/>

DialogFragment does not extend Context needed for each of ArrayAdapter constructors. You should use Context or any of its inheritors in the constructor. To get Context call the getActivity() method of Fragment.
