Question

I have created menu in toolbar.But sometime menu icon is visible and sometime not visible when activity load.and i also want to implement multiselection of submenu

here is my menu.xml file code

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" >

    <item
        android:id="@+id/language_menu"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_language_white"
        android:title="Language"
        app:showAsAction="always">

        <menu>

        <group
            android:id="@+id/group2"
            android:checkableBehavior="all"
            >
            <item
                android:id="@+id/submenu1"
                android:title="English"
                android:orderInCategory="1"
                app:showAsAction="never"/>
            <item
                android:id="@+id/submenu2"
                android:title="Hindi"
                android:orderInCategory="1"
                app:showAsAction="never"/>
            <item
                android:id="@+id/submenu3"
                android:title="Gujarati"
                android:orderInCategory="1"
                app:showAsAction="never"
                />
        </group>

    </menu>

</item>

and here is my java code for inflating menu

Toolbar toolbarMain = findViewById(R.id.toolbar_main);
setSupportActionBar(toolbarMain);

and menu creation method

@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu, menu);
    return true;
}

using this code i am able to implement menu but menu icon is sometime show and sometime not showing.

nothing wrong in your code. set menu icon for submenu1,2,3. – sivaBE35 Jan 27 '17 at 07:20 — sivaBE35, Jan 27 '17 at 07:20
Try calling `super` in your `onCreateOptionsMenu`. – Paresh P. Jan 27 '17 at 07:40 — Paresh P., Jan 27 '17 at 07:40

I think you should still define the class MenuInflater inside the onCreateOptionsMenu.

@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater();
    inflater.inflate(R.menu.menu, menu);
    return true;
}
