ActionBarDrawerToggle on right

Question

I am using ActionBarDrawerToggle (Navigation Drawer), but I can't set it on the right corner (for persian language).

Here is my activity_main.xml code:

<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/drawer_layout"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

    <!-- Framelayout to display Fragments -->
    <FrameLayout   
        android:id="@+id/frame_container"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent" />  

    <!-- Listview to display slider menu -->
    <ListView
        android:id="@+id/list_slidermenu"
        android:layout_width="240dp"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"  
        android:layout_gravity="start"
        android:choiceMode="singleChoice"
        android:divider="@color/list_divider"
        android:dividerHeight="1dp"        
        android:listSelector="@drawable/list_selector"
        android:background="@color/list_background" />

</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>

And this is relevant code from my activity class:

mDrawerToggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this, mDrawerLayout,
    R.drawable.ic_drawer, //nav menu toggle icon
    R.string.app_name, // nav drawer open - description for accessibility
    R.string.app_name // nav drawer close - description for accessibility) {
        public void onDrawerClosed(View view) {
            getActionBar().setTitle(mTitle);
            // calling onPrepareOptionsMenu() to show action bar icons
            invalidateOptionsMenu();
        }

        public void onDrawerOpened(View drawerView) {
            getActionBar().setTitle(mDrawerTitle);
            // calling onPrepareOptionsMenu() to hide action bar icons
            invalidateOptionsMenu();
        }          
};

I searched about this, I should use gravity, but it it is not working in xml.

it does not work because 'start' works on the type of language that you are using. if your language is Right-to_left, then the drawer will appear on right. I think you should check your language pattern and then try again. — Aradhna, Jun 21 '14 at 06:16

toolbar.setNavigationOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
    if (Drawer.isDrawerOpen(Gravity.RIGHT)) {
        Drawer.closeDrawer(Gravity.RIGHT);
    } else {
        Drawer.openDrawer(Gravity.RIGHT);
    }
}});

Try adding this line to android manifest file:

android:supportsRtl="true"
