“错误膨胀类菜单”-android.view.InflateException：二进制XML文件行＃119：错误膨胀类菜单

Question

I am working on an Android app and I try to implement Social share buttons into the app.

I checked the Android documentation for sharing - Sharing simple data and implemented the code there; however, the app crashes when launching with the error message android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #119: Error inflating class menu

I changed the position and constraints of the Layout files with no success.

            android:id="@+id/menu_item_share"
            android:actionProviderClass="android.widget.ShareActionProvider"
            android:showAsAction="ifRoom"
            android:title="Share" />
    </menu>

I know that there is a problem with inflating the social share menu but I don´t get to the point why the app is crashing; hence, any help or hints would be very much appreciated!

Answer 1

"android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #119: Error inflating class menu"

You should try with

app:showAsAction="ifRoom"
app:actionProviderClass="android.support.v7.widget.ShareActionProvider"

Example

<item android:id="@+id/menu_item_share"
    android:title="@string/share"
    app:showAsAction="ifRoom"
    app:actionProviderClass="android.support.v7.widget.ShareActionProvider"/>

Read Use action views and action providers

Answer 2

<item android:id="@+id/menu_item_share"
        android:title="@string/share"
        app:showAsAction="ifRoom"
        app:actionProviderClass="android.widget.ShareActionProvider" />


or


<item android:id="@+id/menu_item_share"
        android:title="@string/share"
        app:showAsAction="ifRoom"
        app:actionProviderClass="android.support.v7.widget.ShareActionProvider" 
/>
