java.lang.Objectandroid.support.v4.view.ActionProvider
public abstract class ActionProvider
This class is a mediator for accomplishing a given task, for example sharing a file. It is responsible for creating a view that performs an action that accomplishes the task. This class also implements other functions such a performing a default action.
Note: This class is included in the support library for compatibility
with API level 4 and higher. If you're developing your app for API level 14 and higher
only, you should instead use the framework ActionProvider
class.
An ActionProvider can be
optionally specified for a MenuItem
and in such a case it will be
responsible for
creating the action view that appears in the ActionBar
as a substitute for
the menu item when the item is displayed as an action item. Also the provider is responsible for
performing a default action if a menu item placed on the overflow menu of the ActionBar is
selected and none of the menu item callbacks has handled the selection. For this case the
provider can also optionally provide a sub-menu for accomplishing the task at hand.
There are two ways for using an action provider for creating and handling of action views:
MenuItem
directly by
calling MenuItemCompat.setActionProvider(android.view.MenuItem, ActionProvider)
.
<item android:id="@+id/my_menu_item"
android:title="@string/my_menu_item_title"
android:icon="@drawable/my_menu_item_icon"
android:showAsAction="ifRoom"
android:actionProviderClass="foo.bar.SomeActionProvider" />
MenuItemCompat.setActionProvider(android.view.MenuItem, ActionProvider)
,
MenuItemCompat.getActionProvider(android.view.MenuItem)

onPrepareSubMenu(android.view.SubMenu subMenu)
Called to prepare an associated submenu for the menu item backed by this ActionProvider. |
boolean |
overridesItemVisibility()
The result of this method determines whether or not isVisible() will be used
by the MenuItem this ActionProvider is bound to help determine its visibility. |

public abstract android.view.View onCreateActionView()
public android.view.View onCreateActionView(android.view.MenuItem forItem)
If your ActionProvider implementation overrides the deprecated no-argument overload
onCreateActionView()
, overriding this method for devices running API 16 or later
is recommended but optional. The default implementation calls onCreateActionView()
for compatibility with applications written for older platform versions.
forItem
- MenuItem to create the action view for
public boolean overridesItemVisibility()
isVisible()
will be used
by the MenuItem
this ActionProvider is bound to help determine its visibility.
isVisible()
public boolean isVisible()
overridesItemVisibility()
returns true, the return value of this method
will help determine the visibility of the MenuItem
this ActionProvider is bound to.
If the MenuItem's visibility is explicitly set to false by the application, the MenuItem will not be shown, even if this method returns true.
public void refreshVisibility()
overridesItemVisibility()
and
isVisible()
. If overridesItemVisibility()
returns false, this call
will have no effect.
public boolean onPerformDefaultAction()
For the case of an action provider placed in a menu item not shown as an action this method is invoked if previous callbacks for processing menu selection has handled the event.
A menu item selection is processed in the following order:
MenuItem.OnMenuItemClickListener.onMenuItemClick
.Activity.onOptionsItemSelected(android.view.MenuItem)
FragmentActivity.onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem)}
Fragment.onOptionsItemSelected(android.view.MenuItem)
Fragment.onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem)}Intent
set via
MenuItem.setIntent(android.content.Intent)
The default implementation does not perform any action and returns false.
public boolean hasSubMenu()
Associated submenus will be shown when an action view is not. This provider instance will
receive a call to onPrepareSubMenu(SubMenu)
after the call to onPerformDefaultAction()
and before a submenu is displayed to the user.
public void onPrepareSubMenu(android.view.SubMenu subMenu)
if hasSubMenu()
returns true, this method will be called when the menu item is
selected to prepare the submenu for presentation to the user. Apps may use this to create or
alter submenu content right before display.
