I've an app that i've been developing for around 6 months. It uses an options menu on some of the screens. It has always worked until i updated eclipse from api ~14 to 17. I also updated the tools as well.
The options menu is no longer present can anyone tell me why? Is there something i have to do differently in api 17?
Here's the optionsmenu that logs the user into the app.
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();
inflater.inflate(R.layout.menuentryoptionsmenu, menu);
if(isAllowChangeUser.equalsIgnoreCase("false")){
MenuItem mi = menu.findItem(R.id.changeuser);
mi.setVisible(false);
}
return true;
}
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
Cursor allFromCompIdTable = nfcscannerapplication.loginValidate.queryAllFromCompanyIdTable();
if(allFromCompIdTable.getCount() > 0){
if(allFromCompIdTable.moveToLast()){
compId = allFromCompIdTable.getString(allFromCompIdTable
.getColumnIndex(LoginValidate.C_COMPANY_ID_OUTSIDE_APP_PURPOSES));
}
}
if(isAllowChangeUser.equalsIgnoreCase("false")){
if(item.getItemId() == R.id.changeuser)
item.setVisible(false);
}
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.login:
//if(gpsStatusStopped == true){
Log.e(TAG, "gps engine has stopped now");
.........
I had same problem, maybe try to compile agains api level 11. in api 17 there are some unconvienced features with some device without hardware buttons, this could do the mess.
