I have 3 ToolBars that I use across my whole application
The first one is just a ToolBar with a close button.
The second one is a ToolBar with a close and delete icon.
The third one is a ToolBar with a close and home icon.
Here is my case, I use this ToolBar in many places, and I dont want to use Fragment for some reasons so I am forced to use Activity.
For usability, I created methods to handle their functions, but I am sure I can do something to make this easier as I repeat this code in each activity.

java method that handles the ToolBar :
private void setupToolbar() {
Toolbar mytoolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.mytoolbar);
TextView toolbarTitle = (TextView) mytoolbar.findViewById(R.id.toolbarTitle);
toolbarTitle.setText(getResources().getString(R.string.submit_claim));
ImageView closeButton = (ImageView) mytoolbar.findViewById(R.id.CloseImageView);
closeButton.setOnClickListener(v -> finish());
ImageView HomeButton = (ImageView) mytoolbar.findViewById(R.id.HomeImageView);
HomeButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent mIntent = new Intent(PolicyAndContactDetailActivity.this , MainActivity.class);
mIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(mIntent);
finish();
}
});
}
I need to minimize my code as much as possible, and any help with @+id names will be appreciated.
