Newbie trying to finish the My first App tutorial provided by Google. On the way to this fatal exception I did import a lot of random packages to get rid of "cannot be resolved" errors for a number of things, ActionBarActivity, EditText, Fragment, LayoutInflater, etc, but not sure this matters. Anyway, my app crashes and produces a Fatal exception when I click on the "Send" button in the Main Activity. Here is my code and logcat file.
MyActivity.java (aka MainActivity.java of the tutorial)
package magiccoupons.tutapp;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.EditText;
public class MyActivity extends Activity {
public final static String EXTRA_MESSAGE = "com.example.myfirstapp.MESSAGE";
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_my);
}
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.my, menu);
return true;
}
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
/** Called when the user clicks the Send button */
public void sendMessage(View view) {
// Do something in response to button
Intent intent = new Intent(this, DisplayMessageActivity.class);
EditText editText = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.edit_message);
String message = editText.getText().toString();
intent.putExtra(EXTRA_MESSAGE, message);
startActivity(intent);
}
}
DisplayMessageActivity.java:
package magiccoupons.tutapp;
import android.widget.*;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.view.*;
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity;
import android.app.Fragment;
public class DisplayMessageActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// Get the message from the intent
Intent intent = getIntent();
String message = intent.getStringExtra(MyActivity.EXTRA_MESSAGE);
// Create the text view
TextView textView = new TextView(this);
textView.setTextSize(40);
textView.setText(message);
// Set the text view as the activity layout
setContentView(textView);
}
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}

Sorry if I missed something and this question is completely unnecessary and/or a dupe. Thanks.
