Add and Handle Menu Items

public class TestProject extends Activity {
    /* Set ID's */
    private final int MENU_NEW_GAME = 0;
    private final int MENU_QUIT = 1;
    
    /* Create Menu Items */
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        menu.add(0, MENU_NEW_GAME, 0, "Help");
        menu.add(0, MENU_QUIT, 0, "About");
        return true;
    }
    
    /* Handles Item Selection */
    public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
        switch (item.getItemId()) {
            case MENU_NEW_GAME:
                newGame();
                return true;

            case MENU_QUIT:
                finish();
                return true;
        }
        return false;
    }
}

This code adds two items to the menu (Help and About) and handles the selection of the items.

Just wanted to add, that you can include an image to the menu as simple as using the following code at line 8:

menu.add(0, MENU_NEW_GAME, 0, "Help").setIcon(R.drawable.icon_menu_newGame);

Thanks, this worked great. I don't understand why it's so hard to find SIMPLE code examples.
