Toast won't show inside Android DatePickerDialog

Question

I have pickDateTime function, that restricts the user of choosing times that are in past. Current time - is the "minimum" time allowed.

This is the function:

public void pickDateTime(View view) {
    Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
    currentYear = c.get(Calendar.YEAR);
    currentMonth = c.get(Calendar.MONTH);
    currentDay = c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
    currentHour = c.get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY);
    currentMinute = c.get(Calendar.MINUTE);
    DatePickerDialog datePickerDialog = new DatePickerDialog(NewMissionUser.this
            , new DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener() {
        @Override
        public void onDateSet(DatePicker datePicker, int year, int month, int day) {

            Log.d(TAG,"Chose: year: " + year + " , month: " + (month+1) + " day: " + day);
            missionYear = year;
            missionMonth = (month+1);
            missionDay = day;

            TimePickerDialog timePickerDialog = new TimePickerDialog(NewMissionUser.this, new TimePickerDialog.OnTimeSetListener() {
                @Override
                public void onTimeSet(TimePicker timePicker, int hourOfDay, int minute) {
                    missionTime = missionDay+"/"+missionMonth+"/"+missionYear + " " +hourOfDay + ":" + minute;
                    Log.d(TAG,"missionTime: " + missionTime);
                    if (isPast(missionTime)){
                        Log.d(TAG,"mission time in past!");
                        Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "APP Mission inserted in past, ignoring date, default date is now.",Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
                        Toast.makeText(NewMissionUser.this, "Mission inserted in past, ignoring date, default date is now.",Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
                        Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "BASE Mission inserted in past, ignoring date, default date is now.",Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
                        missionTime = currentDay+"/"+currentMonth+"/"+currentYear + " " +currentHour + ":" + currentMinute;
                    }
                }
            },currentHour, currentMinute, true);

            timePickerDialog.show();

        }
    },currentYear, currentMonth, currentDay);


    datePickerDialog.show();
}

This is the class:

public class NewMissionUser extends AppCompatActivity implements PopupMenu.OnMenuItemClickListener, GmapFragmentNewMission.TextClicked

The problem is, that the Toast won't show up in either of these tries. The Log DOES appear, and in debug I see that the code reaches this point and isPast function is behaving as expected.

Why the Toast won't come up? Thanks.

You're missing the call to show() the Toast:

Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "...",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
