I am trying to manually implement the actions that must take place when the up button on the actionbar is pressed but for some reason nothing happens when I press it.
here is my code:
public class ActivityOne extends AppCompatActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_activity_one);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar)findViewById(R.id.toolbar_actionbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
Button button = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btn1);
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
openActivityTwo();
}
});
Button button2 = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btn2);
button2.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
openActivityThree();
}
});
}
void openActivityTwo(){
Intent intent = new Intent(this, ActivityTwo.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
void openActivityThree(){
Intent intent = new Intent(this, ActivityThree.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
@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_activity_one, menu);
return true;
}
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
//noinspection SimplifiableIfStatement
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
}
else if(id == R.id.homeAsUp){
Log.i("","Up is pressed");
finish();
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}
I understand that I have to explicitly assign a parent activity for the activity I want to implement up navigation on the manifest file, but problem is that this activity has multiple parents so I thought calling the finish()
method when the up button is pressed on this activity will be the better approach.
I have already tried both id == R.id.home
and id == R.id.homeAsUp
and they both do not work. I do not know if it is because I am using AppCompactActivity
or what Please help
