Android：删除某些类的Sherlock Action Bar项目

Question

I'm having Sherlock Action Bar to show several icons in the Action Bar, like sharing, info, etc.

The thing is that I want to delete, for certain activities/fragments one of the buttons (sharing), but I can't do it.

My activity (StartActivity) extends from InfoActivity, which is the one that implements the onCreateOptionsMenu .

I tried to override the onCreateOptionsMenu method and do a clear() but it doesn't work:

@Override
    public void onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu, MenuInflater inflater) {
        super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu, inflater);
    }

Any ideas on how to do this?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Answer 1

Find the menu item in question and disable or hide it. Something like this in onCreateOptionsMenu() or onPrepareOptionsMenu() if you want to make it dynamic:

menu.findItem(R.id.menu_share).setVisible(false);

Answer 2

What I did in the end, was creating different classes: one with the Sharing button in the menu as a button, and one without, and just making the proper activity extend from the appropriate class.

For example, StartActivity, I don't want it to have sharing capabilities, so I made it extend from an Activity without the sharing button.

Thanks @NikolayElenkov for your help!
