More than one .xml file in res/menu folder

When I have more than one xml file in my res/menu folder it only recognises one of them. I would like to have one Action bar for a certain activity and a different one for another. I take it this isn't some kind of illegal action?

No, this is not illegal. Usually you have several menu xml files and you use what you want in your Activities.

for you... ¿Whats the meaning of 'recognise'?

You can declare several files under res/menu. They only need to have different names.

For example

res/menu/
  --menu_one.xml
  --menu_two.xml
  --menu_three.xml

is completely valid.

You'll need to reference them during menu creation via R.menu.menu_one, R.menu.menu_two or R.menu.menu_three.
