How do I implement the onCreateOptionsMenu method in a SherlockFragment?

actionbarsherlock, android, android-optionsmenu

Solution

The onCreateOptionsMenu() function of SherlockFragment is exactly like the Fragment one.

@Override
public void onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu, MenuInflater inflater) {
    super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu, inflater);
    inflater.inflate(R.menu.fragment_menu_xyz, menu);
}

Also you have to add the following to your `onCreate()` function

setHasOptionsMenu(true);

The imports are:

import com.actionbarsherlock.view.Menu;
import com.actionbarsherlock.view.MenuInflater;

Problem

I am really struggling to set up the `onCreateOptionsMenu` method in my Sherlock Fragment, as I usually don't use Sherlock fragments that much. Can someone tell what I have to import and how the implementation works? Some code that I have: ``` public class MyFragment extends SherlockFragment { @Override public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) { View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.custom_list, container, false); // SOME CODE ... return rootView; } @Override public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) { // ??? } } ```
