This is probably realy noobish question but, i am unable to solve it. I dont know what i am doing wrong or what should i do, i checked some tuts but i wasnt able to solve it. So i created new folder in res called menu and created new file there called xyz.xml. Now i want to call it in activity with following R.menu.item … But when i just write R. it doesnt show menu as option. I can call any map which are default here like layout etc, but maps which i created i cant call them. What should i do to solve this?

If the menu file you create is called xyz.xml, then in your code you should use it as:
Also, are you referring to the correct R? There’s one R class used for the Android framework resources (android.R) and then there’s one specific R class for your projects resources. To ensure you’re using the right one you can use the fully qualified namespace, e.g. yourprojectsnamespace.R.
