Android: menu option ShareAction versions -

It is compiled without any errors, but after crashing the activity, I get it at runtime:

  java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: it is not supported, use android.support.v7.internal.view.menu.MenuItemImpl.getActionProvider (MenuItemImpl.java:645) on MenuItemCompat.getActionProvider () on com ... .... activity .onCreateOptionsMenu  

line of code (the onCreateOptionsMenu)

  shareProvider = (ShareActionProvider) item.getActionProvider ();  

MenuItemCompat.getActionProvider (use) asked for, but it is an import and I minSdkVersion is 15, targetSdkVersion 21

Menu

  & lt; Menu xmlns: android = "http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns: app = "http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" xmlns: tools = "http: //schemas.android.com/tools "tool: reference =" com ....... activity "& gt; & Lt; item android: id = "@ + id / action_share" android: title = "Share" app: Sosakshn = "Ifroom" android: icon = "@ android: drawable / Aisi_menu_shaire" Android: ActionProviderClass = "AndroidkwidgetkShareActionProvider" / & Gt; & Lt; / Menu & gt;    
 
 
 When you use  ActionBarActivity  Instead of using  android.widget.ShareActionProvider : 
 
  & lt; Android: id = "@ + id / action_share" Android: title = "share" application: showAsAction = "ifRoom" app: action providerClass = "android.support.v7.widget.ShareActionProvider" /> Errors the error message as  
 
 and then  MenuItemCompat.getActionProvider () . 
 
 Use the note that it is clickable only after calling  ShareActionProvider   setShareIntent ()  - as soon as you can ( either  onCreateOptionsMenu ()  is used or when you want to share, load content /  onOptionsItemSelected () . 
 
  instead selected /
