Deprecated ActionBarDrawerToggle

actionbardrawertoggle, android, navigation-drawer

Solution

I solved my problem by importing the newer `android.support.v7.app.ActionBarDrawerToggle` and by using the RecyclerView instead of the ListView as shown in this example: How to make Material Design Navigation Drawer With Header View:

private ActionBarDrawerToggle mDrawerToggle;
//... ... 
mDrawerToggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(
            this,
            mDrawerLayout,
            toolbar,
            R.string.drawer_open, R.string.drawer_close){
                    @Override
                    public void onDrawerOpened(View drawerView) {
                        super.onDrawerOpened(drawerView);
                        // code here will execute once the drawer is opened 
                        getSupportActionBar().setTitle(mTitle);
                        invalidateOptionsMenu(); // creates call to onPrepareOptionsMenu()
                    }
                    @Override
                    public void onDrawerClosed(View drawerView) {
                        super.onDrawerClosed(drawerView);
                        // Code here will execute once drawer is closed
                        getSupportActionBar().setTitle(mDrawerTitle);
                        invalidateOptionsMenu();
    };

Problem

I was trying to implement the android.support.v4.app.ActionBarDrawerToggle in my app; since this class is deprecated This class is deprecated. Please use ActionBarDrawerToggle in support-v7-appcompat. I've switched to android.support.v7.app.ActionBarDrawerToggle. Before I could call the constructor in this way: ``` mDrawerToggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle( this, /* host Activity */ mDrawerLayout, /* DrawerLayout object */ R.drawable.ic_drawer, /* nav drawer image to replace 'Up' caret */ R.string.drawer_open, /* "open drawer" description for accessibility */ R.string.drawer_close /* "close drawer" description for accessibility */ ){ public void onDrawerClosed(View view) { getActionBar().setTitle(mTitle); invalidateOptionsMenu(); // creates call to onPrepareOptionsMenu() } public void onDrawerOpened(View drawerView) { getActionBar().setTitle(mDrawerTitle); invalidateOptionsMenu(); // creates call to onPrepareOptionsMenu() } }; ``` but after I've switched to the newer v7 support library, I receive the error ``` "ActionBarDrawerToggle() in ActionBarDrawerToggle cannot be applied to: toolbar: android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar Actual arguments: R.drawable.ic_drawer (int)" ``` Apparently I am not introducing a proper Toolbar into the constructor, but I'm not sure to understand the difference between the two conflicting arguments. How do I get the required toolbar?
