Unable Override onCreateOptionsMenu in my Main_Activity

Question

Two days ago, I switched switched from xamarin to android studio and I'm extremly new to Java. I'm trying to create a DrawerLayout with a NavigationView but once I try to override onOptionsItemSelected it simply don't wanna come. So what should I do? I tried to paste a method, but android studio treats it as a normal variable or method.

Edit : Solved.

onCreateOptionsMenu() is a method like onCreate(). You have to write this method in the same level of your onCreate() and not inside. To do this, move onCreateOptionsMenu() below the very next closing brace.

You can also try to reformat your code with android studio to see much clear – François Legrand Nov 24 '17 at 22:18

onCreateOptionMenu() is same as onCreate() method, you have to write down this method below one more "curly braces".

It solve your problem.
