| <p>This sample shows how to use the action bar design pattern on pre-API 11 devices and the built-in |
| <a href="../../../reference/android/app/ActionBar.html">ActionBar</a> on devices supporting API |
| 11 or greater. The example 'compatible' action bar, instantiated on pre-Android 3.0 devices, |
| uses the same <a href="../../../guide/topics/resources/menu-resource.html">menu resource</a>-based |
| action item definition mechanism as the new framework API, even supporting the |
| <code>android:showAsAction</code> attribute to a limited extent.</p> |
