Display Menu items in Fragment ActionBar

When Implementing Fragment screen, If it require to display Menu Items only specific to that Fragment screen.

If you just write the following code…

       
        @Override
	public void onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu, MenuInflater inflater) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu, inflater);
		menu.clear();
		inflater.inflate(R.menu.done_actions_menu, menu);
	}

	/**
	 * On selecting action bar icons
	 * */
	@Override
	public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
		// Take appropriate action for each action item click
		switch (item.getItemId()) {
		case R.id.action_done:
			Log.d(TAG, "Done button clicked...");
                        //action code
			return true;
		default:
			return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
		}
	}

It won’t display Menu items in ActionBar.

To display Menu Items you should also override OnCreate method of Fragment class as shown below

     
       @Override
	public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
		setHasOptionsMenu(true);

	}

Hope it helps somebody…
