Action Bar Sherlock - project for action bar implementation


Project Action Bar Sherlock is very promising looking project that provides implementation for the action bar pattern in form of an Android library project. What makes it particularly great is that it supports both 3.0 and pre 3.0 Android versions. It will automatically display the Honeycomb action bar on 3.0 + and the traditional version on anything bellow 3.0.

See project website for more info and instructions:

Project license is Apache 2.0.

  1. Thanks for the post! I just want to let everyone know that version 3 has been released which allows you to use the native API in your activity (using getSupportActionBar()) and even allows themes that work on both pre-3.0 and 3.0+ action bars.

    The repository link above is still valid but you can also get more information at http://actionbarsherlock.com.
