TUTORIAL 31
Searching For Food
In this tutorial, we will enable searching of the restaurant list, so you can
find one in the vast array of restaurants you surely will maintain in this
application.
Step-By-Step Instructions.........................................................................
First, you need to have completed the previous LunchList tutorial. If you are
starting the tutorials here, or if you wish to not use your existing work, you
can download a ZIP file with all of the tutorial results, and you can copy the
14-Rotation edition of LunchList to use as a starting point.
Step #1: Have the List Conduct the Search......................................
First, we need to be able to trigger the local search. To do this, add another
item to our LunchList/res/menu/options.xml menu definition:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:id="@+id/add"
android:title="Add"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_menu_add"
/>
<item android:id="@+id/search"
android:title="Search"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_menu_search"
/>
<item android:id="@+id/prefs"
