I\'ve implemented the newest appcompat library and using the Toolbar as action bar. But the problem is I cannot catch the home button / hamburger icon click eve
For anyone looking for a Xamarin implementation (since events are done differently in C#), I simply created this NavClickHandler class as follows:
public class NavClickHandler : Java.Lang.Object, View.IOnClickListener
{
private Activity mActivity;
public NavClickHandler(Activity activity)
{
this.mActivity = activity;
}
public void OnClick(View v)
{
DrawerLayout drawer = (DrawerLayout)mActivity.FindViewById(Resource.Id.drawer_layout);
if (drawer.IsDrawerOpen(GravityCompat.Start))
{
drawer.CloseDrawer(GravityCompat.Start);
}
else
{
drawer.OpenDrawer(GravityCompat.Start);
}
}
}
Then, assigned a custom hamburger menu button like this:
SupportActionBar.SetDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
SupportActionBar.SetDefaultDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(false);
this.drawerToggle.DrawerIndicatorEnabled = false;
this.drawerToggle.SetHomeAsUpIndicator(Resource.Drawable.MenuButton);
And finally, assigned the drawer menu toggler a ToolbarNavigationClickListener of the class type I created earlier:
this.drawerToggle.ToolbarNavigationClickListener = new NavClickHandler(this);
And then you've got a custom menu button, with click events handled.
