Re: [android-developers] Menu throughout Application
Although Mark's idea is workable, it may be bad OOD. It would work if all your apps are direct subclasses of Activity, but what if some are MapActivity, etc? I think the answer may depend on that and how you want to use the global menu. Using delegation, you could have each menu be created by the same code, but then what? Typically menus are implemented with inner classes, allowing access to the Activity's private methods and classes. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

Use inheritance if you can (implement onCreateOptionsMenu() on some class and have your other activities inherit from it). -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android App Developer Training: http://commonsware.com/training -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Menu throughout Application
Hi, I have implemented a Menu within an Activity, but I'd like this Menu to exist throughout my whole application... How can thsi be achieved ? Should I be placing the public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) method within every single Activity or is there some way to "share" the menu ?
