Option Menu

[shien]

Hi I am trying to make Option menu. I am running 2.2 project.

I am making it by documentation but the menu table doesn't show up. Can you help me?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item
   android:id="@+id/menu_newGame"
   android:title="New Game"
/>
<item
   android:id="@+id/menu_HighScores"
   android:title="Highscores"
/>
<item 
   android:id="@+id/menu_quit"
   android:title="Quit"
/>
</menu>

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
   }
   public boolean onCreateOptionMenu(Menu menu)
    {
       MenuInflater menuInflater = getMenuInflater();
       menuInflater.inflate(R.layout.menu, menu);
       return true;
    }
    public boolean onOptionItemSelected(MenuItem item)
    {
          switch (item.getItemId())
            {
            case R.id.menu_newGame:
                // Single menu item is selected do something
                // Ex: launching new activity/screen or show alert message
                Toast.makeText(GameOfAnagramsActivity.this, "Bookmark is Selected", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                return true;
     
            case R.id.menu_HighScores:
                Toast.makeText(GameOfAnagramsActivity.this, "Save is Selected", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                return true;
     
            case R.id.menu_quit:
                Toast.makeText(GameOfAnagramsActivity.this, "Search is Selected", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                return true;
     
            
     
            default:
                return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
            }
   
}

Solved it.

But I have another problem. When I click on menu item. It doesn't show Toast message. It only refreshes main activity.

Any ideas how to fix it?
