In your activity class, override the following methods if they are not there by default:

// create an action bar button
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    // R.menu.mymenu is a reference to an xml file named mymenu.xml which should be inside your res/menu directory. 
    // If you don't have res/menu, just create a directory named "menu" inside res
    getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.mymenu, menu);
    return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);
}

// handle button activities
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
    int id = item.getItemId();

    if (id == R.id.mybutton) {
    // do something here
    }
    return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}

mymenu.xml

<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
  xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
<item
    android:id="@+id/mybutton"
    android:title=""
    app:showAsAction="always"
    android:icon="@drawable/mybuttonicon"
    />
</menu>

If you want to customize UI of your ActionBar, then you can use Toolbar as ActionBar. Here are the steps to do the same :

1. Add below code as a child of AppBarLayout in your activity layout xml.

   <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
           android:id="@+id/toolbar"
           android:layout_width="match_parent"
           android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize" >
   
           <LinearLayout
               android:layout_width="match_parent"
               android:layout_height="wrap_content"
               android:weightSum="1">
   
               <TextView
                   android:id="@+id/title"
                   android:layout_width="0dp"
                   android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                   android:layout_weight="1"
                   android:text="ActionBar Title"/>
   
               <Button
                   android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                   android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
   
           </LinearLayout>
   
       </android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>
   

2. Make your Toolbar as ActionBar by adding the below code in your Activity onCreate() method.

   Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
   setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
   getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
   

3. In AndroidManifest.xml, add following theme to your activity:

   android:theme="@style/AppTheme.NoActionBar"
   

4. In styles.xml add following code:

   <style name="AppTheme.NoActionBar">
       <item name="windowActionBar">false</item>
       <item name="windowNoTitle">true</item>
   </style>

Someone had answered this question before

You have two steps to do that:

1. Create menu in res/menu (Name it my_menu.xml)

   <menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
   <item
       android:id="@+id/action_cart"
       android:icon="@drawable/cart"
       android:orderInCategory="100"
       android:showAsAction="always"/> 
   </menu>
   

2. Override onCreateOptionsMenu and inflate menu

   @Override
   public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
   MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();
   inflater.inflate(R.menu.my_menu, menu);
   return true;
   }

回答4:

its described properly at https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/menus.html#xml . You can create a menu.xml file at "menu" directory, which is at the same level as "drawable" and "layout" directories

回答5:

Make a xml file for your menu in res/menu directory ( menu_main.xml in this case):

<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    tools:context="com.example.rashish.myapplication.MainActivity">
    <item
        android:id="@+id/action_settings"
        android:orderInCategory="100"
        android:title="Button title"
        android:icon="@drawable/buttonicon"
        app:showAsAction="never" />
</menu>

then add these methods in your activity class :

@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
    getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu);
    return true;
}

@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
    // Handle action bar item clicks here.
    int id = item.getItemId();

    if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
        //process your onClick here
        return true;
    }

    return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
