ClassNotFoundException Android Runtime issue

Question

I am getting this error at runtime:

/AndroidRuntime(1739): java.lang.RuntimeException: 
Unable to instantiate activity ComponentInfo{com.newsrss.Feed/com.newsrss.Feed.NewsRssActivity}:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.newsrss.Feed.NewsRssActivity

I don't understand why. I've ensured my class is named appropriately and referenced correctly in the manifest.xml file:

<activity android:name="com.newsrss.Feed.NewsRssActivity">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>

This is the class

package com.newsrss.Feed;

import android.app.Dialog;
import android.app.LoaderManager;
import android.app.ProgressDialog;
import android.content.*;
import android.content.pm.ActivityInfo;
import android.graphics.drawable.Drawable;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.AsyncTask;
import android.os.Build;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.text.Html;

import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;

import com.fortysevendeg.swipelistview.BaseSwipeListViewListener;
import com.fortysevendeg.swipelistview.SwipeListView;
import com.google.analytics.tracking.android.EasyTracker;
import com.slidingmenu.lib.SlidingMenu;

import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Map;


public class NewsRssActivity extends shaerToSocial {

shaerToSocial extends SherlockActivitiy (ABS).

I'd really appreciate any help on the isuue, mant thanks

Can it be the case that you have a project and Android library it depends on? — Boris Strandjev, May 20 '14 at 13:27
is that on your development device or reports from Google Play ? — Budius, May 20 '14 at 13:27
@Boris that is possible. I am not the original developer. I am trying to run the application locally for test purposes. I know for a fact that it uses `Facebook SDK`, `Actionbar Sherlock`, `NineOldAndroids`, `Google Play `Services` and few others. — Javacadabra, May 20 '14 at 13:28
what is your API version on the phone? Is lint declaring any new api issue if you run it? — Boris Strandjev, May 20 '14 at 13:30

I'm using emulator at the moment, the version is set to API v 15 — Javacadabra, May 20 '14 at 13:32
check on the build settings if `ActionBarSherlock` is being included in the project build? — Budius, May 20 '14 at 13:36
