Android: onCreateOptionsMenu() item action

Question

I have a menu created through:

  @Override
  public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    menu.add(\"Email\");

    return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu)         


        

Answer 1

From Android developer guide

@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle item selection
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case R.id.new_game:
    newGame();
    return true;
case R.id.help:
    showHelp();
    return true;
default:
    return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
