   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
   <android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
   
   <android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout 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"

               android:layout_width="match_parent"
               android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
               android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
               app:popupTheme="@style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay" />

       </LinearLayout>
   
   </android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
   

    
   
3. Create a menu file in menu directory(main_menu.xml).
   
   

   <menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
       xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">

           android:title="Logout" />
   </menu>
   
   

   
   
4. Open your MainActivity.JAVA class and update it -
   
   

   package com.pankaj.menudemo;
   
   import android.os.Bundle;
   import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
   import android.support.v7.widget.PopupMenu;

   import android.view.Menu;
   import android.view.MenuItem;
   import android.view.View;
   import android.widget.Button;
   import android.widget.Toast;
   
   public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
   
       //_________create objects of buttons
       private Button btnPopupMenu, btnContaxtMenu;
   
       @Override
       protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
           super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
           setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
   
           //_________create toolbar object
           Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
   
           //_________add toolbar
           setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
   
           //_________initialize buttons
           btnPopupMenu = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnPopupMenu);
           btnContaxtMenu = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnContaxtMenu);
   
           //_________register button for context menu
           registerForContextMenu(btnContaxtMenu);
       }
   
       //_________override method to create context menu
       @Override
       public void onCreateContextMenu(ContextMenu menu, View v, ContextMenu.ContextMenuInfo menuInfo) {
           super.onCreateContextMenu(menu, v, menuInfo);
   
           //________add title of the menu, if is it.
           menu.setHeaderTitle("This is a Context Menu");
   
           //_________add icon of the menu, if is it.
           menu.setHeaderIcon(getResources().getDrawable(R.mipmap.ic_launcher));
   
           //_____________inflate main_menu.xml file to show option in context menu
           getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu);
       }
   
       //_________override method to process selected context menu option.
       @Override
       public boolean onContextItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
   
           //_________Message will be shown, When option selected from context menu.
           Toast.makeText(this, "Context Menu : " + item.getTitle(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
           return super.onContextItemSelected(item);
       }
   
       //_________override method to create options menu
       @Override
       public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
   
           // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
           //_____________inflate main_menu.xml file to show option in popup menu
           getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu);
           return true;
       }
   
       //_________override method to process selected options menu option.
       @Override

           Toast.makeText(this, "Option Menu : " + item.getTitle(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
           return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
       }
   
       //_________override method to create popup menu.
       public void openPopupMenu(View view) {
   
           //_________create popup menu object
           PopupMenu popupMenu = new PopupMenu(this, btnPopupMenu);
   
           //_____________inflate main_menu.xml file to show option in popup menu
           popupMenu.getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_main, popupMenu.getMenu());
   
           //__________set listener to call back on item selection
           popupMenu.setOnMenuItemClickListener(new PopupMenu.OnMenuItemClickListener() {
   
               //_________override method to process selected popup menu option.
               @Override
               public boolean onMenuItemClick(MenuItem item) {
   
                   //_________Message will be shown, When option selected from popup menu.
                   Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Popup Menu : " + item.getTitle(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                   return false;
               }
           });
           popupMenu.show();
       }
   }
