So, I am doing this project that includes an intro activity that switches to a menu activity with navigation drawer. Couple of days ago, I had an issue switching from intro to menu (Android Studio 1.0.2: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo: java.lang.NullPointerException
) and it was solved by changing name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar"
to name="AppTheme" parent="android:Theme.Holo.Light.DarkActionBar"
thanks to goonerdroid's suggestion in my previous link.
The issue that I have now is that I am trying to add a search action on the top right corner of the action bar alongside the navigation drawer so it can search on different future activities and javas that I will be adding. When I run the program, it enters the intro activity with no problems. When I click on the button to take me to the menuactivity, it displays the following error:
