invalidateOptionsMenu() not working when "restarting" activity
I have an activity, let's call it FirstActivity.java , which has an actionBar with a navigation drawer instantiated via fragment. In this fragment, NavigationDrawerFragment.java , I've put the methods onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu, MenuInflater inflater), onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) and onPrepareOptionsMenu(Menu menu) as anyone normally would in order to instantiate the actionBar. On the right side of the actionBar, I have a button with a "messages" icon that leads to the user's inbox fragment. When a new message incomes, I call invalidateOptionsMenu() inside my FirstActivity and change the icon to a brighter one in onPrepareOptionsMenu(Menu menu). Everything works fine so far.
The problem is: I can leave the FirstAcitivty via one of the options in the navigation drawer. I do it via Intent. Let's call it SecondActivity.java .
Intent myIntent = new Intent(FirstActivity.this, SecondActivity.class);
startActivity(myIntent);
finish();
When I call the FirstAcitivity again, also via Intent, the invalidateOptionsMenu() method stops working. It does not trigger the methods onCreateOptionsMenu nor onPrepareOptionsMenu. I have also tried supportInvalidateOptionsMenu() with no luck.
Only when I hit the MENU BUTTON (on the left side of the actionBar) is that these methods are called and the messages icon is changed. Does anyone know the reason for this strange behavior?
Better yet, does anyone know a solution for my problem? : )
FirstActivity.java
public class FirstActivity extends ActionBarActivity impements NavigationDrawerFragment.NavigationDrawerCallbacks {
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.first_activity);
// When a new message arrives
if (thereIsAnIncomingMessage) {
invalidateOptionsMenu();
}
}
}

@Override

return relativeLayout;

fragmentTransaction.commit();

}
@Override

} else {
menu.getItem(0).setIcon(R.drawable.message_icon);
}
}
public interface NavigationDrawerCallbacks {
void onNavigationDrawerItemSelected(int position);
}
}
The problem is that the OnCreate method of FirstActivity is not called when you hit the back button. Instead, you can put your code in OnResume , as follows:
@Override
public void onResume(){
super.onResume();
if(thereIsAnIncomingMessage)
invalidateOptionsMenu();
}
