Onclick of menu item gives a wired toast

Question

I am using Drawer functionality and i am using Fragment-TabHost functionality for fragments and i am using Sherlock action Library for this

---

Code runs fine but there is a bug in the functionality:: When i click the menu item of the actionBar a toast kind of dialog is displayed as shown in figure below, I have never used toast in the code

Node::keep pressing menu item for 3 sec...then this dialog pops up

MainActivity.java

public class MainActivity extends SherlockFragmentActivity implements OnItemClickListener{

    private DrawerLayout drawlayout=null;
    private ListView listview=null;
    private ActionBarDrawerToggle actbardrawertoggle=null;

    private String[] myfriendname=null;

         myfriendname = new String[] { "Sunil Gupta", "Abhishek Tripathi","Sandeep Pal", "Amit Verma" };
         myfriendnickname = new String[] { "sunil android", "Abhi cool","Sandy duffer", "Budhiya jokar"};
         photo = new int[] { R.drawable.sunil, R.drawable.abhi, R.drawable.sandy, R.drawable.amit};

         drawlayout = (DrawerLayout)findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
         listview = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listview_drawer);

Answer 1

This is not a bug. It is designed to be like this and it is not related to all files you have posted here but your menu file named actionbar_sort_menu. In this file you are having probably something like this:

<item
    android:id="@+id/menu_delete"
    android:orderInCategory="100"
    android:showAsAction="ifRoom|withText"
    android:title="@string/menu_delete"
    android:icon="@drawable/ic_white_trash"/>

And all you need to do is to not use title. But if you want to see a description for that item, so write something for it.

Answer 2

When you long press a MenuItem in the ActionBar, a Toast is displayed that contains the title of the MenuItem. The Toast is empty because you don't have a title for that MenuItem.

From the docs:

If the action item appears with only the icon, a user can long-press the item to reveal a tool-tip that displays the action title.
