Android Tab icon for 4.0 and later

Question

I want to set icon on a tab. My codes are right and I am sure.Is it a problem because of the version of android? I looked lots of codes but all of them are the same.The codes are;

package com.mesutemre.androidtabkullanimi;

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.ActivityGroup;
import android.app.TabActivity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.widget.TabHost;
import android.widget.TabHost.TabSpec;

public class MainActivity extends TabActivity {

@SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    TabHost tabhost = getTabHost();
    tabhost.setup();
    tabhost.addTab(tabhost
            .newTabSpec("tabindis1")
            .setIndicator("SEKME1",
                    getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.document))
            .setContent(new Intent(MainActivity.this, Sekme1Activity.class)));

    tabhost.addTab(tabhost
            .newTabSpec("tabindis2")
            .setIndicator("SEKME2",
                    getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.music))
            .setContent(new Intent(MainActivity.this, Sekme1Activity.class)));

    tabhost.addTab(tabhost
            .newTabSpec("tabindis3")
            .setIndicator("SEKME3",
                    getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.delete))
            .setContent(new Intent(MainActivity.this, Sekme1Activity.class)));

    tabhost.addTab(tabhost
            .newTabSpec("tabindis4")
            .setIndicator("SEKME4",
                    getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.close))
            .setContent(new Intent(MainActivity.this, Sekme1Activity.class)));



}

@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
    getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
    return true;
}

  }

I read from some links that this is a problem adroid 4.0 and later. What can i do for setting icon on a tab.

Answer 1

Pls try setView to set TextView instead of setIndicator. Set icon and indicator text to TextView.
