How to open the options menu programmatically?

Question

I would like to open the optionsMenu programmatically without a click on the menu key from the user. How would I do that?

Answer 1

Apparently, doing it in onCreate breaks app, since Activity's not yet attached to a window. If you do it like so:

@Override
public void onAttachedToWindow() {
    openOptionsMenu(); 
};

...it works.
