680 views.Action Bar in Android is used to provide navigation and to perform some actions. In this tutorial we are going to implement a Simple Action Bar in our Android Application and perform actions such as switching fragments , speech recognition. More Advanced implementation will be covered in another article. To support older version of Android use Android Support Library.

package androiindian.customtoast; import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity; import android.view.Menu; import android.view.MenuItem; import android.widget.Toast; /** * Created by janga on 21-10-2016. */ public class Menuoptions extends AppCompatActivity { @Override public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) { getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main_menu, menu); return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu); } @Override public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) { switch (item.getItemId()){ case R.id.abt: Toast.makeText(Menuoptions.this, "about", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); case R.id.ab: Toast.makeText(Menuoptions.this, "androi", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); case R.id.java: Toast.makeText(Menuoptions.this, "Java", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); case R.id.php: Toast.makeText(Menuoptions.this, "PHP", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); } return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item); } } |
