                   int flags,
                   MenuItem[] outSpecificItems)

Description copied from interface: Menu

Add a group of menu items corresponding to actions that can be performed for a particular Intent. The Intent is most often configured with a null action, the data that the current activity is working with, and includes either the Intent.CATEGORY_ALTERNATIVE or Intent.CATEGORY_SELECTED_ALTERNATIVE to find activities that have said they would like to be included as optional action. You can, however, use any Intent you want.

See PackageManager.queryIntentActivityOptions(android.content.ComponentName, android.content.Intent[], android.content.Intent, int) for more * details on the caller, specifics, and intent arguments. The list returned by that function is used to populate the resulting menu items.

All of the menu items of possible options for the intent will be added with the given group and id. You can use the group to control ordering of the items in relation to other items in the menu. Normally this function will automatically remove any existing items in the menu in the same group and place a divider above and below the added items; this behavior can be modified with the flags parameter. For each of the generated items MenuItem.setIntent(android.content.Intent) is called to associate the appropriate Intent with the item; this means the activity will automatically be started for you without having to do anything else.

Specified by:

addIntentOptions in interface Menu

Parameters:

group - The group identifier that the items should be part of. This can also be used to define groups of items for batch state changes. Normally use Menu.NONE if the items should not be in a group.

id - Unique item ID. Use Menu.NONE if you do not need a unique ID.

categoryOrder - The order for the items. Use Menu.NONE if you do not care about the order. See MenuItem.getOrder().

caller - The current activity component name as defined by queryIntentActivityOptions().

specifics - Specific items to place first as defined by queryIntentActivityOptions().

intent - Intent describing the kinds of items to populate in the list as defined by queryIntentActivityOptions().

flags - Additional options controlling how the items are added.

outSpecificItems - Optional array in which to place the menu items that were generated for each of the specifics that were requested. Entries may be null if no activity was found for that specific action.

Returns:

The number of menu items that were added.

stopDispatchingItemsChanged

public void stopDispatchingItemsChanged()

Stop dispatching item changed events to presenters until startDispatchingItemsChanged() is called. Useful when many menu operations are going to be performed as a batch.

startDispatchingItemsChanged

public void startDispatchingItemsChanged()

flagActionItems

public void flagActionItems()

This method determines which menu items get to be 'action items' that will appear in an action bar and which items should be 'overflow items' in a secondary menu. The rules are as follows:

Items are considered for inclusion in the order specified within the menu. There is a limit of mMaxActionItems as a total count, optionally including the overflow menu button itself. This is a soft limit; if an item shares a group ID with an item previously included as an action item, the new item will stay with its group and become an action item itself even if it breaks the max item count limit. This is done to limit the conceptual complexity of the items presented within an action bar. Only a few unrelated concepts should be presented to the user in this space, and groups are treated as a single concept.

There is also a hard limit of consumed measurable space: mActionWidthLimit. This limit may be broken by a single item that exceeds the remaining space, but no further items may be added. If an item that is part of a group cannot fit within the remaining measured width, the entire group will be demoted to overflow. This is done to ensure room for navigation and other affordances in the action bar as well as reduce general UI clutter.

The space freed by demoting a full group cannot be consumed by future menu items. Once items begin to overflow, all future items become overflow items as well. This is to avoid inadvertent reordering that may break the app's intended design.
