Switch for onPrepareOptionsMenu

Question

How can I write this switch statement? I want make two statements for the items below.

public boolean onPrepareOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
switch(?????){
case ?????:

    }
}

MenuItem log = menu.findItem(R.id.action_Log);
log.setChecked(isChecked);

MenuItem sound = menu.findItem(R.id.action_Sound);
sound.setChecked(isChecked);

so you want to handle the click event on menu items? Did you create the menu in xml and inflated in using `onCreateOptionsMenu`? — Leo, Mar 29 '16 at 17:55
your question was not clear, even after I asked you about it here in the comments. Why do you want to use a switch statement? — Leo, Mar 29 '16 at 19:41

If you want to know when the menu item is clicked you need to implement MenuItem.OnMenuItemClickListener in your Activity then override the method onMenuItemClick like this:

@Override
public boolean onMenuItemClick(MenuItem item) {
    switch(item.getItemId()) {
        case R.id.action_Log:
            // do stuff
            return true;
        case R.id.action_Sound:
            //do stuff
            return true;
    }

    return false;
}

I used this method allready. I just want both items to be checked. — Niclas, Mar 29 '16 at 19:38
