getActionView is deprecated?

Question

Today I decide to translate my android app from Java to Kotlin ! :) But I was very surprise when I type this :

val searchItem = menu.findItem(R.id.action_sea         


        

Answer 1

As suggested by egor, you can do like this

    getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_items, menu);
    MenuItem menuItem = menu.findItem(R.id.action_search);

    SearchView searchView = (SearchView) menuItem.getActionView();
    search(searchView);
    return true;
