Understanding why onCreateOptionsMenu is not displaying a menu

Question

I\'m reading through Android For Dummies. One example makes use of the onCreateOptionsMenu (I\'ve added a log message):

@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsM         


        

Answer 1

This question is answered here:

My menu in my activity is not appearing because my onCreateOptionsMenu is not getting called

I had the same problem whilst studying this book. The code is right, but you have to press the menu button in order for it to appear. :)
