I have a class that extends SherlockFragmentActivity that is supposed to provide actionBar to other classes. Somehow when I override some methods, they aren't working the way they should. This is the original overriden method
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case android.R.id.home:
final Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(),
MainScreen.class);
intent.putExtra("Back", true);
startActivity(intent);
break;
default:
break;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
And here I override it in my Activity.
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case android.R.id.home:
final Intent intent = new Intent(Terms.this, CarDetailed.class);
Log.d("ActionBar in Terms", "Home button pressed");
intent.putExtra("Back", true);
startActivity(intent);
break;
default:
break;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
The log says it is invoking home button, but somehow I am always redirected to MainScreen.class. What am I doing wrong?
SOLVED
I returned super method, that was my error.

You can inflate the menu programmatically based on the type of the user with
navigationView.getMenu().clear(); //clear old inflated items.
navigationView.inflateMenu(R.menu.new_navigation_drawer_items);
From this answer
I am trying to perform action when click on item in menu and I used switch case to loop over item id
I tried to remove break and tried to play with the code does not work and every time I click on any item in the menu it performs last method in the menu i.e. log out
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.menu_all_users:
// complete later
case R.id.menu_account_setting:
Intent settingIntent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, SettingActivity.class);
startActivity(settingIntent);
finish();
case R.id.menu_log_out:
auth.signOut();
Intent loginIntent = new Intent(MainActivity.this , LoginActivity.class);
loginIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK);
startActivity(loginIntent);
finish();
default:
break;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
Why you've removed break statement, try in this way :
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle item selection
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.menu_all_users:
return true;
case R.id.menu_account_setting:
Intent settingIntent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, SettingActivity.class);
startActivity(settingIntent);
finish();
return true;
case R.id.menu_log_out:
auth.signOut();
Intent loginIntent = new Intent(MainActivity.this , LoginActivity.class);
loginIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK);
startActivity(loginIntent);
finish();
return true;
default:
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
Also cross check all id's are present in xml or not and you're properly inflating menu in onCreateOptionsMenu method.
I believe you are missing break statements in all cases except default.
Thank you guys I solved it using if statment instead of switch and it worked
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
if(item.getItemId() == R.id.menu_all_users){
sendToAllUsers();
}else if(item.getItemId() == R.id.menu_account_setting){
GoToSetting();
}else if(item.getItemId() == R.id.menu_log_out){
Logout();
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
#Override
public boolean onContextItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
int selecteditemid = item.getItemId();
switch(selecteditemid){
case R.id.rajasthan:
// I want to call context menu from here
break;
case R.id.gujrat:
break;
case R.id.maharastra:
break;
}
return super.onContextItemSelected(item);
}
I want context menu from these items of context menu, i also tried onCreateContextMenu() function but it didn't worked.
How do you open a new activity when you click on an item in the menu list?
For example I have a menu item named "Teams" so after I click on that, the "TeamsActivity" should open. I've searched on the internet but that didn't help me.
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.home:
???????????????????
case R.id.Teams:
???????????????????
default:
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
Basically you create an Intent and start it.
You can have a look in the tutorial of the developer-site of android.
In your case it's something like:
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
Intent intent = null;
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.home:
intent = new Intent(this, HomeActivity.class);
break;
case R.id.Teams:
intent = new Intent(this, TeamsActivity.class);
break;
default:
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
startActivity(intent);
return true;
}
I've been using ABS 4.0 with two MenuItems in one of my apps, but have discovered a little error: When pressing the second MenuItem, it does exactly the same as the first one...
I've tried just about everything I can think of, but it isn't working. I've altered onOptionItemSelected, as I thought that was the method I need to edit.
EDIT:
I've been looking at #Ollie's suggestions, but neither LogCat nor Debug is showing weird things. Maybe it's in some other part of the code, or a declaration for ABS? Here's the entire code, if you could look through it, that would be great!
The code for the whole Activity, as it's maybe in some other place?

I'm thinking that the problem is in the declaration of the menu items, but I don't see any problem there...
Could you take a look at my menu.xml? Posted here:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<item android:id="#+id/settings"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_settings"
android:title="Instellingen"></item>
<item android:id="#+id/about"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_about"
android:title="Over de app"></item>
</menu>
Create the menu like this:
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();
inflater.inflate(R.menu.menu, menu);
return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);
}
Then use a switch statement to handle selections:
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case android.R.id.home:
// Do stuff
return true;
case R.id.menu_item_2:
// Do stuff
return true;
default:
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
EDIT: Finally, you should do different things for each item, if you change the Intent target Activity to another, it'll do what you expect:
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case android.R.id.home:
// ... Stuff ...
case R.id.settings: // Settings item
Intent i = new Intent(this, About.class); // Start About.java Activity, but item says "settings"
// TODO: Change About to Settings?
i = new Intent(this, Settings.class);
startActivity(i);
return true;
case R.id.about: // About item
Intent about = new Intent(this, About.class); // Start About.java Activty
startActivity(about);
return true;
default:
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
What I find odd is the way you create your menu.
You have defined menu layout it in a menu.xml, yet you do not reference this layout in a onCreateOptionMenu() method.
It should be something like this:
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
getSupportMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu, menu);
return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);
}
Pay attention to the getSupportMenuInflater() method which is used instead of getMenuInflater(). Why this must be so is somewhere in docemntation about android support library which in term is used by ActionBarSherlock library.
What you do is create menu in code programmatically by using a method menu.add() with a signature add(CharSequence). Nowhere it is in there that you give ItemId. I guess (and this is only a guess) android in that case assigns the same id to all items, something like zero or some other arbitrary number. You should use a method with a signature add(int, int, int,CharSequence) or add(int, int, int, int) as only those allow you to specify ItemId. So, both of your menu items have the same id. And this is (I guess again) the cause that they behave the same.
One more thing. Be careful that you use the correct substitute classes and methods from support library and ActionBarSherlock library.
Please let us know if this solved the problem as I am only running this in my head.
