  • Fix: MenuItem.getSubMenu now returns a support instance rather than a
    native instance.
  • Fix: Fragment methods onAttach and onInflate incorrectly regressed to use
    Activity instead of a FragmentActivity in their method signatures.
  • Fix: Retained fragments not being re-attached on pre-3.0 when attached to
    android.R.id.content upon activity recreation.
  • Fix: onPrepareOptionsMenu not dispatched to fragments. This still will only
    occur if the activity method returns true (which is the default).

Due to shortcomings in the Android theming system, a small change must be made
in how this library handles themes. If you were using a custom style for
actionBarStyle you must now specify its attributes in the root of the theme
and prefix them with 'ab'.

You can see an example of this in the SherlockCustom theme in
samples/demos/res/values/styles.xml.

  • Library now uses the r3 version of the compatibility library for its base.
  • actionBarStyle is no longer a valid theme attribute (see note above).
  • Added the demo project included with the new compatibility library under
    samples/demos/ and merged in the old 'featuredemo'.
  • Dividers are now shown on pre-3.0 devices between all action items.
  • Window.FEATURE_ACTION_BAR_OVERLAY is now honored on pre-3.0 devices.
  • Inflation of XML menu resources will now honor android:actionLayout and
    android:actionViewClass attributes.
  • Buttons for displaying the determinate and indeterminate progress bars have
    been added to the feature toggle demo.
  • Added support for indeterminate progress bar. Due to the final modifier on
    the native type, you must use setIndeterminateProgressBarVisibility(Boolean)
    and pass Boolean.TRUE or Boolean.FALSE.
  • Fix: MenuBuilder#removeItem(int) and MenuBuilder#findItem(int) throwing
    IndexOutOfBoundsExceptions when the item was not found.
  • Fix: Theme attributes for home item data (e.g., icon, logo) will not be
    overwritten by the special MenuItem instance for home.
  • Fix: Native strings can now be specified for an XML menu <item> in
    android:title and android:titleCondensed.
  • Window.FEATURE_ENABLE_ACTION_BAR_WATSON_TEXT is now
    Window.FEATURE_ACTION_BAR_ITEM_TEXT.
  • Widget.Sherlock.Spinner.DropDown.ActionBar and
    Widget.Sherlock.Light.Spinner.DropDown.ActionBar styles are now
    Widget.Sherlock.Spinner and Widget.Sherlock.Light.Spinner, respectively.
  • Widget.Sherlock.ActionBarView_TabXXX styles are now
    Widget.Sherlock.ActionBar.TabXXX.

Version 3.0.3

This version is a hotfix for incompatibilities introduced with the SDKs for
3.1 r2 and 3.2 r1. Due to unavoidable changes in the underlying SDK, the library
must now be compiled against API level 13.

  • actionModeStyle and actionModePopupWindowStyle are no longer valid theme
    attributes.

Version 3.0.2

  • Sub-menus for action items are now shown in a list dialog.
  • Moved certain classes to the com.actionbarsherlock.internal package which
    were not meant for public consumption. Despite being given public scope in
    this new package, these classes should NOT be used under any circumstances
    as their API can be considered highly volatile and is subject to change often
    and without warning.

Version 3.0.1

  • Fix: onOptionsItemSelected() not being called in fragments if the activity
    version returns false.
  • Fix: onCreateOptionsMenu() not being called in fragments on Android 3.0+.
  • New: Enable action item text display on pre-Android 3.0 by calling
    requestWindowFeature with Window.FEATURE_ENABLE_ACTION_BAR_WATSON_TEXT.
  • Fix: setCustomView() no longer automatically enables the custom view on
    pre-3.0. You must call setDisplayShowCustomEnabled() in order to display
    the view.

Version 3.0.0

The API has been rewritten to mimic that of the native action bar. As a result,
usage now only requires changing a few imports to use the support versions
of classes and calling getSupportActionBar(). See the README for more info.

The rewrite necessitated tight interaction with the
compatibility library
to the point where its sources are now included. You are no longer required to
have the standalone .jar file.

Also included is a default custom action bar for use by default on pre-3.0
devices. This custom implementation is based off of Johan Nilsson's
Android-ActionBar and the
work that I have done
on it.

WARNING: The Android Compatibility Library (v4) is now required.

  • Added ActionBarSherlock.Activity, ActionBarSherlock.FragmentActivity,
    and ActionBarSherlock.ListActivity for extension by implementing
    activities, the latter of which is deprecated. This affords a much tighter
    integration and allows for the use of other new features listed below.
  • New API method: layout(Fragment) will use the fragment argument as the
    content to the activity.
  • New API method: menu(int) allows for the inflation of menu XMLs from a
    resource. For the non-native implementation, the XML can be inflated to a
    custom Menu which can then be applied appropriately to the third-party
    action bar. Sub-menus are also supported. Third-party action bar handlers
    should implement ActionBarSherlock.HasMenu for this functionality. This
    feature requires that activities extend from one of the provided activity
    base classes.
  • New API method: homeAsUp(boolean). This mimics the native method
    setDisplayHomeAsUpEnalbed on the native action bar. Third-party action bar
    handlers should implement ActionBarSherlock.HasHomeAsUp for this
    functionality.
  • New API method: useLogo(boolean) will trigger the action bar to hide the
    application icon/home button and title and show a larger logo representing
    the application. Third-party action bar handlers should implement
    ActionBarSherlock.HasLogo for this functionality.
  • New API method: listNavigation(SpinnerAdapter, OnNavigationListener). Tells
    the action bar to use drop-down style navigation with the specified list of
    items and callback listener. Third-party action bar handlers should
    implement ActionBarSherlock.HasListNavigation for this functionality.
  • Javadocs are now available at
    jakewharton.github.com/ActionBarSherlock.
  • A standalone JAR is now available via the
    GitHub downloads page
    or in my
    personal maven repository
    as com.jakewharton:android-actionbarsherlock:2.1.0.

  • Use Class.forName() for detection of native action bar. This provides
    compatability all the way back to Android 1.5.
