    Experiment – 9

    Aim: Design an application to create an options menu for the android activity.

    Solution:
    Step 1: Change an element in <application> attribute in AndroidManifest.xml:

    android:theme="@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar"

    Step 2: Create a resource directory


    To create a menu, you need to create menu folder so create one inside the “res” folder by selecting it
    and choosing “File”, “New”, then “Folder” and entering “menu” as the name and type as menu.

    Step 3: create a menu XML file:


    Choose the “menu” folder and create a new file by selecting “Menu Resource File”, “New”, then “File”
    and entering a name. You can choose any filename you like, for example “my_menu.xml”.
    Step 4: my_menu.xml:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <menu xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">

    <item
    android:id="@+id/search"
    android:icon="@android:drawable/ic_menu_search"
    android:title="Search"
    app:showAsAction="always" />
    <item
    android:id="@+id/settings"
    android:title="Settings"
    app:showAsAction="never" />
    <item
    android:id="@+id/deleteid"
    android:title="Delete"
    app:showAsAction="never" />
    </menu>

    Step 5: activity_main.xml:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    tools:context=".MainActivity">

    <androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar
    android:id="@+id/my_toolbar"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
    android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
    android:elevation="4dp"
    android:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.ActionBar"
    app:layout_constraintBottom_toTopOf="@+id/textView"
    app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
    app:layout_constraintHorizontal_bias="1.0"
    app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
    app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
    app:layout_constraintVertical_bias="0.0"
    app:popupTheme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light" />

    <TextView
    android:id = "@+id/textView"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="Hello World!"
    app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
    app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
    app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
    app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf = "parent" />

    </androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>
    Step 6: MainActivity.java:
    package com.example.menuexampleprogram;

    import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;

    import android.os.Bundle;
    import android.view.Menu;
    import android.view.MenuInflater;
    import android.view.MenuItem;
    import android.widget.TextView;
    import android.widget.Toast;
    import androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar; Make sure that
    androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolb
    public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity { ar package imported to java code.
    TextView res;
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    res = findViewById(R.id.textView);
    Toolbar myToolBar = findViewById(R.id.my_toolbar);
    setSupportActionBar(myToolBar);
    }
    @Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu){
    MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();
    inflater.inflate(R.menu.my_menu,menu);
    return true;
    }
    @Override
    public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item){
    if(item.getItemId()==R.id.search){
    res.setText("Search");
    Toast.makeText(this, "Search Menu", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    return true;
    } else if (item.getItemId()==R.id.settings) {
    res.setText("Settings");
    Toast.makeText(this, "Settings Menu", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    return true;
    } else if (item.getItemId()==R.id.deleteid) {
    res.setText("Delete");
    Toast.makeText(this, "Delete Menu", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    return true;
    }
    else
    return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
