How to replace deprecated android.support.v4.app.ActionBarDrawerToggle

Question

Yesterday (17-10-2014) I have update Android SDK and support-library-v4.jar of my App, now I get deprecation warning related to ActionBarDrawerToggle

Answer 1

you must use import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarDrawerToggle;

and use the constructor

public CustomActionBarDrawerToggle(Activity mActivity,DrawerLayout mDrawerLayout)
{
    super(mActivity, mDrawerLayout, R.string.ns_menu_open, R.string.ns_menu_close);
}

and if the drawer toggle button becomes dark then you must use the supportActionBar provided in the support library.

You can implement supportActionbar from this link: http://developer.android.com/training/basics/actionbar/setting-up.html
