can I use a compatible action bar AND a fragment in the same activity?

Question

OK, I\'ve been extending my activities to

extends ActionBarActivity

My main menu page

extends FragmentActivity

Answer 1

Do you have menu items for your Fragments? Use your own app namespace instead of android for app:showAsAction and app:actionLayout, etc.

To add your namespace to the XML use this line in the menu tag

xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

E.g.

Note the app:showAsAction rather than android:showAsAction
