public interface ContextMenu
implements Menu

android.view.ContextMenu

Extension of Menu for context menus providing functionality to modify the header of the context menu.

To show a context menu on long click, most clients will want to call Activity.registerForContextMenu and override Activity.onCreateContextMenu.
