Unable Override onCreateOptionsMenu in my Main_Activity


Two days ago, I switched switched from xamarin to android studio and I'm extremly new to Java. I'm trying to create a DrawerLayout with a NavigationView but once I try to override onOptionsItemSelected it simply don't wanna come. So what should I do? I tried to paste a method, but android studio treats it as a normal variable or method.

Edit : Solved.


Solution

  • onCreateOptionsMenu() is a method like onCreate(). You have to write this method in the same level of your onCreate() and not inside. To do this, move onCreateOptionsMenu() below the very next closing brace.
