SearchView's OnCloseListener doesn't work

Question

I\'m trying to add support for the SearchView in the Android 3.0+ ActionBar, but I can\'t get the OnCloseListener to work.

Here\'s my code:

Answer 1

seems an old thread already, but I thought I got the same problem API 18 in the first beginning. After googled around, found this thread, another hour read the javadoc tried and errored for something I don't pretend fully understand in javadoc, the following work for me now:

searchView.setIconifiedByDefault(true);

   // OnQueryTextListener
   @Override
   public boolean onQueryTextSubmit(String query) {
      Log.d(tag, "onQueryTextSubmit: " + query);
      return true;
   }

   @Override
   public boolean onQueryTextChange(String query) {
      Log.d(tag, "onQueryTextChange: " + query);
      return true;
   }

   // OnCloseListener
   @Override
   public boolean onClose() {
      Log.w(tag, "onClose: ");
      return false;
   }

I played with true/false a bit, that somehow makes the difference, and it works for me now. Hopefully, it could save someone time.
