searchManager.getSearchableInfo(getComponentName()) returns null

问题

I've followed this Android guide in order to add a search bar to an activity. The setup looks like this:

res/menu/activity_main.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >

<item
    android:id="@+id/search"
    android:title="@string/menu_search"
    android:icon="@android:drawable/ic_menu_search"
    android:showAsAction="collapseActionView|ifRoom"
    android:actionViewClass="android.widget.SearchView" />
<item
    android:id="@+id/menu_settings"
    android:orderInCategory="100"
    android:showAsAction="never"
    android:title="@string/menu_settings"
    android:icon="@drawable/ic_menu_settings"/>

</menu>

res/xml/searchable.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<searchable xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:hint="@string/search_hint" />

Activity entry in manifest file:

    <activity
        android:name="de.ivu.realtime.app.activity.MainActivity"
        android:label="@string/app_name" >
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>
        <meta-data
            android:name="android.app.searchable"
            android:resource="@xml/searchable" />
        <meta-data
            android:name="android.app.default_searchable"
            android:value="de.ivu.realtime.app.activity.MainActivity" />
    </activity>

and the code in MainActivity:

@SuppressLint("NewApi")
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu)
{
    this.getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.activity_main, menu);

    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.HONEYCOMB)
    {
        SearchManager searchManager = (SearchManager) getSystemService(Context.SEARCH_SERVICE);
        SearchView searchView = (SearchView) menu.findItem(R.id.menu_search).getActionView();
        SearchableInfo searchableInfo = searchManager.getSearchableInfo(getComponentName());
        searchView.setSearchableInfo(searchableInfo);
    }

    return true;

The call to searchManager.getSearchableInfo(getComponentName()); always returns null. I've seen this in other questions on stackoverflow, however, none of the solutions presented there seem to apply to my case.

the menu XML has a <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> header
the searchable XML has no hard-coded strings
renaming the menu item does not work
cleaning and rebuilding does not do the trick either

Any help is very much appreciated. Thanks!

Add it to the activity where you've put your SearchView

<meta-data
    android:name="android.app.default_searchable"
    android:value=".activity_that_handles_the_search" />

<intent-filter>
    <action android:name="android.intent.action.SEARCH" />
</intent-filter>

In my case the problem was my mistake during integration with ActionBarSherlock. In this case android:actionViewClass should be com.actionbarsherlock.widget.SearchView instead of android.widget.SearchView. I know this sounds dumb, but I spent 20 minutes trying to figure out why searchView is null in my code that is similar to yours.

Replace:

android:actionViewClass="android.widget.SearchView"

With:

app:actionViewClass="android.widget.SearchView"

Because app is often used if you are using support library.
