I am trying to set up a click event for a popup menu in Android. I created an overidden onOptionsItemSelected(), but nothing seems to be happening. Here is the popupmenu.xml file:

popupmenu.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">

<item android:id="@+id/help"

    android:title="Help" />

<item android:id="@+id/information"

    android:title="Information" />

<item android:id="@+id/services"

    android:title="Services" />

<item android:id="@+id/overdose"

    android:title="Overdose" />

</menu>

Here is the onOptionsItemSelected() method:

@Override

public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {

    // Handle item selection

    switch (item.getItemId()) {

        case R.id.help:

            Toast toast = Toast.makeText(this, "Help Works", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);

            toast.show();

            return true;

        case R.id.information:

            Toast toast2 = Toast.makeText(this, "Information Works", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);

            toast2.show();

            return true;

        case R.id.services:

            Toast toast3 = Toast.makeText(this, "Services Works", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);

            toast3.show();

            return true;

        case R.id.overdose:

            Toast toast4 = Toast.makeText(this, "Services Works", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);

            toast4.show();

            return true;

        default:

            return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);

    }

}

I was under the impression that onOptionsItemSelected() was called whenever a menu item was selected, and that it didn't require the android:onClick attribute in the layout for the activity. Is there something I'm missing here? The popup menu works perfectly otherwise.

UPDATE: I thought you want to listen for Toolbar option's click. Here is
how to listen for click events in PopupMenu

popup.setOnMenuItemClickListener(new PopupMenu.OnMenuItemClickListener() {  

                public boolean onMenuItemClick(MenuItem item) {  

                    // get id in item parameter and switch case

                    return true;  

                }  

            });  

I Think u have to add another method as below. You haven't mentioned above.

@Override

public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {

    MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();

    inflater.inflate(R.menu.popupmenu, menu);

    return true;

}

You can add this code in Your MainActivity.java. Or For More refer to this link.
