Replace deprecated android.support.v4.app.ActionBarDrawerToggle with support.v7 version cause drawer not works on Jelly Bean
android, android-support-library
Solution
- To get `ActionBarDrawerToggle` v7 to work properly you need to extends your Activity class from `android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity`
- `ActionBarActivity` v7 must be used with `Theme.AppCompat` theme from the `appcompat-v7:21` support library.
- Unless you want to switch from `ActionBar` to `ToolBar`, don't add `<item name="windowActionBar">false</item>` when extending `Theme.AppCompat`. Doing so will make your `ActionBarActivity` have no default `ActionBar` decor, and `getSupportActionBar` will return null. You'll need to provide your own `ToolBar` and call `setSupportActionBar` first to make `getSupportActionBar` work.
Problem
Following the answer in this question i have replaced `ActionBarDrawerToggle` of support v4 library that in latest update(rev 21) has been deprecated with the latest `ActionBarDrawerToggle` of `support-v7 library`. Now the drawer works on Android Lollipop Emulator without deprecation warnings but when I test the app on a Jelly Bean real device no drawer and no toggle drawer button is shown. What the hell appened with this support library update? How could I fix this issue without downgrade to previous version? Here my layout ``` <android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:id="@+id/drawer_layout" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" > <!-- content view --> <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" android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin" android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin" android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin" android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin" tools:context=".MainActivity" > <TextView android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="@string/drawer_text" /> </RelativeLayout> <!-- nav drawer --> <ListView android:id="@+id/drawer" android:layout_width="320dp" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:layout_gravity="start" android:background="#F3F3F4" android:choiceMode="singleChoice" android:divider="@android:color/transparent" android:dividerHeight="0dp" /> </android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout> ```
