I have newly implemented popup menus in my Android project, but I would like to programmatically change the text for one of the menu items, depending on software state. Is this possible with a pop up menu item?? I can already do it with my Action Bar items using menu.findItem(), but that function doesn't seem to be provided for popupmenu.
This is my code for displaying the menu:
private void showPopupMenu (final View v)
{
PopupMenu pm = new PopupMenu (net, v);
pm.getMenuInflater().inflate (R.menu.popupmenu, pm.getMenu());
pm.setOnMenuItemClickListener (new PopupMenu.OnMenuItemClickListener()
{
...
I suppose I could create a big set of popupmenu XML's and parse the one I need in inflate(), but really doesn't seem like an efficient way to do it.
Ultimately, what I decided to do was this:
pm.getMenuInflater().inflate (bConfigSelf
? R.menu.SelfConfigMenu // Need a different menu for myself
: R.menu.ConfigMenu, // than for a neighbor
pm.getMenu());
A choice of 2 different menus didn't seem too outlandish, but this isn't really a solution for the general case. But I'm going to assume (based on the number of responses) that this isn't a common problem, and that there really isn't a solution to it at this point.
