Implementation of Sliding Menu J. Feinstein
android, menu, sliding
Solution
Your problem is here.Your code:
sliding:viewAbove="@layout/menu_frame"
sliding:viewBehind="@layout/menu_frame"
From the doc example:
sliding:viewAbove="@layout/YOUR_ABOVE_VIEW"
sliding:viewBehind="@layout/YOUR_BEHIND_BEHIND"
You have to make sure what is above and what is behind the view.
Update: I have tested your code, there are no problem with it. The only thing I had to do was delete `sliding:fadeEnabled="true"` because of compile error for me. You might want to look at somewhere else in your code or try to delete that line and try.
Problem
I'm trying to develop an application using jeremy feinstein's SlidingMenu library which I found very interesting. I have set up everything and created a sample project just to check whether i'm able to implement the sliding menu, but unfortunately I couldn't see any sliding menu in my application. these are the things what I did, downloaded SlidinMenu from HERE and imported into eclipse as an android existing project. Changed its google api level. (Now no more red mark on it.) Created a new project, and added the sliding menu library to it. As jfeinstein explained, I added the following code to my MainActivity.java ``` public class MainActivity extends Activity { @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setTitle("Title !"); setContentView(R.layout.activity_main); SlidingMenu menu = new SlidingMenu(this); menu.setMode(SlidingMenu.LEFT); menu.setTouchModeAbove(SlidingMenu.TOUCHMODE_FULLSCREEN); menu.setShadowWidthRes(R.dimen.shadow_width); menu.setShadowDrawable(R.drawable.shadow); menu.setBehindOffsetRes(R.dimen.slidingmenu_offset); menu.setFadeDegree(0.35f); menu.attachToActivity(this, SlidingMenu.SLIDING_CONTENT); menu.setMenu(R.layout.menu); } ``` } and my activity_main.xml ``` <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" tools:context=".MainActivity" > <com.slidingmenu.lib.SlidingMenu xmlns:sliding="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" android:id="@+id/slidingmenulayout" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" sliding:viewAbove="@layout/testing" sliding:viewBehind="@layout/testing_two" sliding:touchModeAbove="margin" sliding:behindWidth="@dimen/shadow_width" sliding:behindScrollScale="0.5" sliding:shadowDrawable="@drawable/shadow" sliding:shadowWidth="@dimen/shadow_width" sliding:fadeEnabled="true" sliding:selectorEnabled="true"/> </RelativeLayout> ``` and menu_frame.xml ``` <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:id="@+id/menu_frame" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" /> ``` testing.xml ``` <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:orientation="vertical" > <TextView android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="Test"/> </LinearLayout> ``` and I have copied his menu.xml, shadow.xml, dimen.xml into my project. And when I run it I saw nothing but these errors, ``` 01-31 22:18:13.027: E/AndroidRuntime(759): FATAL EXCEPTION: main 01-31 22:18:13.027: E/AndroidRuntime(759): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{android.demo.com/android.demo.com.MainActivity}: android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #2: Error inflating class fragment ``` I don't know where I made a mistake. Tried a lot and I couldnt figure out anything online. Any kind of help or example is much appreciated. Thanks !
