安装ActionBar：
Support Android 3.0 and Above Only(仅支持3.0版本之后)
<manifest ... > <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="11" ... /> ... </manifest>Support Android 2.1 and Above（如果想让应用支持3.1版本之后，需如下操作）
1安装v7 appcompat 库
2Update your activity so that it extends ActionBarActivity. For example:public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity { ... }3In your manifest file, update either the <application>element or individual <activity> elements to use one of the Theme.AppCompat themes. For example:<activity android:theme="@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light" ... >
Adding Action Buttons（增加ActionBar）：
1.Specify the Actions in XML3.0以上版本：
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" > <!-- Search, should appear as action button --> <item android:id="@+id/action_search" android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_search" android:title="@string/action_search" android:showAsAction="ifRoom" /> <!-- Settings, should always be in the overflow --> <item android:id="@+id/action_settings" android:title="@string/action_settings" android:showAsAction="never" /> </menu>2.0以上版本：
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:yourapp="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" > <!-- Search, should appear as action button --> <item android:id="@+id/action_search" android:icon="@drawable/ic_action_search" android:title="@string/action_search" yourapp:showAsAction="ifRoom" /> ... </menu>
2.Add the Actions to the Action Bar：使ActionBar生效
@Override public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) { // Inflate the menu items for use in the action bar MenuInflater inflater = getMenuInflater(); inflater.inflate(R.menu.main_activity_actions, menu); return super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu); }3.Respond to Action Buttons相应ActionBar的事件
@Override public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) { // Handle presses on the action bar items switch (item.getItemId()) { case R.id.action_search: openSearch(); return true; case R.id.action_settings: openSettings(); return true; default: return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item); } }Add Up Button for Low-level Activities：增加返回至上一个Activity的动作按钮:1.不管是4.0以上版本还是使用ActionBarActivity从支持库都需要：增加android:parentActivityName属性
<application ... > ... <!-- The main/home activity (it has no parent activity) --> <activity android:name="com.example.myfirstapp.MainActivity" ...> ... </activity> <!-- A child of the main activity --> <activity android:name="com.example.myfirstapp.DisplayMessageActivity" android:label="@string/title_activity_display_message" android:parentActivityName="com.example.myfirstapp.MainActivity" > <!-- Parent activity meta-data to support 4.0 and lower --> <meta-data android:name="android.support.PARENT_ACTIVITY" android:value="com.example.myfirstapp.MainActivity" /> </activity> </application>
调用setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled():
@Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.activity_displaymessage); getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true); // If your minSdkVersion is 11 or higher, instead use: // getActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true); }
因为设置了android:parentActivityName属性，所以系统知道要返回的父Activity，所以不用设置事件监听
Styling the Action Bar（设置ActionBar风格）:
Use an Android Theme（当使用支持库的时候分别为如下，对应括号中为非支持库的）
When using the Support Library, you must instead use the Theme.AppCompat themes:
Theme.AppCompat for the "dark" theme. （Theme.Holo）
Theme.AppCompat.Light for the "light" theme.（Theme.Holo.Light）
Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar for the light theme with a dark action bar.（Theme.Holo.Light.DarkActionBar）
Customize the Background（改变ActionBar的背景）
For Android 3.0 and higher only：1.定义资源文件：res/values/themes.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <resources> <!-- the theme applied to the application or activity --> <style name="CustomActionBarTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light.DarkActionBar"> <item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/MyActionBar</item> </style> <!-- ActionBar styles --> <style name="MyActionBar" parent="@android:style/Widget.Holo.Light.ActionBar.Solid.Inverse"> <item name="android:background">@drawable/actionbar_background</item> </style> </resources>2.Then apply your theme to your entire app or individual activities(引用资源文件):
<application android:theme="@style/CustomActionBarTheme" ... />For Android 2.1 and higher：1.res/values/themes.xml： <resources> <!-- the theme applied to the application or activity --> <style name="CustomActionBarTheme" parent="@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar"> <item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/MyActionBar</item> <!-- Support library compatibility --> <item name="actionBarStyle">@style/MyActionBar</item> </style> <!-- ActionBar styles --> <style name="MyActionBar" parent="@style/Widget.AppCompat.Light.ActionBar.Solid.Inverse"> <item name="android:background">@drawable/actionbar_background</item> <!-- Support library compatibility --> <item name="background">@drawable/actionbar_background</item> </style> </resources>
2.Then apply your theme to your entire app or individual activities:<application android:theme="@style/CustomActionBarTheme" ... />
Customize the Text Color（自定义ActionBar字体颜色）
For Android 3.0 and higher only：res/values/themes.xml：
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <resources> <!-- the theme applied to the application or activity --> <style name="CustomActionBarTheme" parent="@style/Theme.Holo"> <item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/MyActionBar</item> <item name="android:actionBarTabTextStyle">@style/MyActionBarTabText</item> <item name="android:actionMenuTextColor">@color/actionbar_text</item> </style> <!-- ActionBar styles --> <style name="MyActionBar" parent="@style/Widget.Holo.ActionBar"> <item name="android:titleTextStyle">@style/MyActionBarTitleText</item> </style> <!-- ActionBar title text --> <style name="MyActionBarTitleText" parent="@style/TextAppearance.Holo.Widget.ActionBar.Title"> <item name="android:textColor">@color/actionbar_text</item> </style> <!-- ActionBar tabs text styles --> <style name="MyActionBarTabText" parent="@style/Widget.Holo.ActionBar.TabText"> <item name="android:textColor">@color/actionbar_text</item> </style> </resources>For Android 2.1 and higher（When using the Support Library, your style XML file might look like this:）：res/values/themes.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <resources> <!-- the theme applied to the application or activity --> <style name="CustomActionBarTheme" parent="@style/Theme.AppCompat"> <item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/MyActionBar</item> <item name="android:actionBarTabTextStyle">@style/MyActionBarTabText</item> <item name="android:actionMenuTextColor">@color/actionbar_text</item> <!-- Support library compatibility --> <item name="actionBarStyle">@style/MyActionBar</item> <item name="actionBarTabTextStyle">@style/MyActionBarTabText</item> <item name="actionMenuTextColor">@color/actionbar_text</item> </style> <!-- ActionBar styles --> <style name="MyActionBar" parent="@style/Widget.AppCompat.ActionBar"> <item name="android:titleTextStyle">@style/MyActionBarTitleText</item> <!-- Support library compatibility --> <item name="titleTextStyle">@style/MyActionBarTitleText</item> </style> <!-- ActionBar title text --> <style name="MyActionBarTitleText" parent="@style/TextAppearance.AppCompat.Widget.ActionBar.Title"> <item name="android:textColor">@color/actionbar_text</item> <!-- The textColor property is backward compatible with the Support Library --> </style> <!-- ActionBar tabs text --> <style name="MyActionBarTabText" parent="@style/Widget.AppCompat.ActionBar.TabText"> <item name="android:textColor">@color/actionbar_text</item> <!-- The textColor property is backward compatible with the Support Library --> </style> </resources>
Customize the Tab Indicator(自定义选项卡TabHost的样式，使用选择器)
res/drawable/actionbar_tab_indicator.xml：
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"> <!-- STATES WHEN BUTTON IS NOT PRESSED --> <!-- Non focused states --> <item android:state_focused="false" android:state_selected="false" android:state_pressed="false" android:drawable="@drawable/tab_unselected" /> <item android:state_focused="false" android:state_selected="true" android:state_pressed="false" android:drawable="@drawable/tab_selected" /> <!-- Focused states (such as when focused with a d-pad or mouse hover) --> <item android:state_focused="true" android:state_selected="false" android:state_pressed="false" android:drawable="@drawable/tab_unselected_focused" /> <item android:state_focused="true" android:state_selected="true" android:state_pressed="false" android:drawable="@drawable/tab_selected_focused" /> <!-- STATES WHEN BUTTON IS PRESSED --> <!-- Non focused states --> <item android:state_focused="false" android:state_selected="false" android:state_pressed="true" android:drawable="@drawable/tab_unselected_pressed" /> <item android:state_focused="false" android:state_selected="true" android:state_pressed="true" android:drawable="@drawable/tab_selected_pressed" /> <!-- Focused states (such as when focused with a d-pad or mouse hover) --> <item android:state_focused="true" android:state_selected="false" android:state_pressed="true" android:drawable="@drawable/tab_unselected_pressed" /> <item android:state_focused="true" android:state_selected="true" android:state_pressed="true" android:drawable="@drawable/tab_selected_pressed" /> </selector>
然后：
For Android 3.0 and higher only：res/values/themes.xml：
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <resources> <!-- the theme applied to the application or activity --> <style name="CustomActionBarTheme" parent="@style/Theme.Holo"> <item name="android:actionBarTabStyle">@style/MyActionBarTabs</item> </style> <!-- ActionBar tabs styles --> <style name="MyActionBarTabs" parent="@style/Widget.Holo.ActionBar.TabView"> <!-- tab indicator --> <item name="android:background">@drawable/actionbar_tab_indicator</item> </style> </resources>For Android 2.1 and higher：res/values/themes.xml：

Enable Overlay Mode（自动隐藏模式）：For Android 3.0 and higher only：
<resources> <!-- the theme applied to the application or activity --> <style name="CustomActionBarTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo"> <item name="android:windowActionBarOverlay">true</item> </style> </resources>Then apply your theme to your entire app or individual activities:<application android:theme="@style/CustomActionBarTheme" ... />For Android 2.1 and higher：

Specify Layout Top-margin（top留空白，避免与ActionBar接触）:
没有使用支持库：
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:paddingTop="?android:attr/actionBarSize"> ... </RelativeLayout>使用了支持库：
<!-- Support library compatibility --> <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:paddingTop="?attr/actionBarSize"> ... </RelativeLayout>
