My program runs, but when I click on the q button I should open a new Activity, the program closes saying there is an error.

What could it be? My code:

import android.content.Intent; 
import android.net.Uri;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity; 
import android.os.Bundle; 
import android.view.View; 
import android.widget.Button; 
import android.widget.ListView;
import com.google.android.gms.appindexing.Action; 
import com.google.android.gms.appindexing.AppIndex; 
import com.google.android.gms.common.api.GoogleApiClient;
import java.util.ArrayList;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    /**
     * ATTENTION: This was auto-generated to implement the App Indexing API.
     * See https://g.co/AppIndexing/AndroidStudio for more information.
     */
    private GoogleApiClient client;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        ArrayList<evento_onClick> lista = new ArrayList<evento_onClick>();

        evento_onClick a = new evento_onClick("item a", R.drawable.fireworks, "22/03");
        evento_onClick b = new evento_onClick("item b", R.drawable.fireworks, "22/03");
        evento_onClick c = new evento_onClick("item c", R.drawable.fireworks, "22/03");
        evento_onClick d = new evento_onClick("item d", R.drawable.fireworks, "22/03");
        evento_onClick e = new evento_onClick("item e", R.drawable.fireworks, "22/03");
        evento_onClick f = new evento_onClick("item f", R.drawable.fireworks, "22/03");
        evento_onClick g = new evento_onClick("item g", R.drawable.fireworks, "22/03");
        evento_onClick h = new evento_onClick("item h", R.drawable.fireworks, "22/03");

        lista.add(a);
        lista.add(b);
        lista.add(c);
        lista.add(d);
        lista.add(e);
        lista.add(f);
        lista.add(g);
        lista.add(h);

        ListaAdapterEvento AdapterEvento = new ListaAdapterEvento(this, lista);
        ListView listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listView);
        listView.setAdapter(AdapterEvento);
        // ATTENTION: This was auto-generated to implement the App Indexing API.
        // See https://g.co/AppIndexing/AndroidStudio for more information.
        client = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(this).addApi(AppIndex.API).build();
    }

    public void acionaBotao(View view) {
        Intent novoEvento = new Intent(this, CriarEvento.class);
        startActivity(novoEvento);
    }

    @Override
    public void onStart() {
        super.onStart();

        // ATTENTION: This was auto-generated to implement the App Indexing API.
        // See https://g.co/AppIndexing/AndroidStudio for more information.
        client.connect();
        Action viewAction = Action.newAction(
                Action.TYPE_VIEW, // TODO: choose an action type.
                "Main Page", // TODO: Define a title for the content shown.
                // TODO: If you have web page content that matches this app activity's content,
                // make sure this auto-generated web page URL is correct.
                // Otherwise, set the URL to null.
                Uri.parse("http://host/path"),
                // TODO: Make sure this auto-generated app deep link URI is correct.
                Uri.parse("android-app://com.example.raissa.calencon/http/host/path")
        );
        AppIndex.AppIndexApi.start(client, viewAction);
    }

    @Override
    public void onStop() {
        super.onStop();

        // ATTENTION: This was auto-generated to implement the App Indexing API.
        // See https://g.co/AppIndexing/AndroidStudio for more information.
        Action viewAction = Action.newAction(
                Action.TYPE_VIEW, // TODO: choose an action type.
                "Main Page", // TODO: Define a title for the content shown.
                // TODO: If you have web page content that matches this app activity's content,
                // make sure this auto-generated web page URL is correct.
                // Otherwise, set the URL to null.
                Uri.parse("http://host/path"),
                // TODO: Make sure this auto-generated app deep link URI is correct.
                Uri.parse("android-app://com.example.raissa.calencon/http/host/path")
        );
        AppIndex.AppIndexApi.end(client, viewAction);
        client.disconnect();
    } }

XML file:

<Button
    style="?android:attr/buttonStyleSmall"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="@string/mais"
    android:id="@+id/button"
    android:textSize="25sp"
    android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
    android:layout_alignRight="@+id/listView"
    android:layout_alignEnd="@+id/listView"
    android:layout_alignParentEnd="false"
    android:background="#3ed2cb"
    android:textAlignment="center"
    android:nestedScrollingEnabled="false"
    android:onClick="acionaBotao" />

I’ve tried some internet tutorials and some responses from other posts here but they didn’t help. When I start the program:

W/Egl_emulation: eglSurfaceAttrib not implemented 01-07 18:45:54.989 2071-2086/com.example.Raissa.calencon W/Openglrenderer: Failed to set EGL_SWAP_BEHAVIOR on Surface 0xeae349c0, error=EGL_SUCCESS

Welcome Raissa. You will need to include your code so the staff can help you. If possible provide a MCVE

What do you do with the Actionbar in class Criaevent???

– Thiago Luiz Domacoski

The Create Event class does nothing yet, only takes a few texts.

What you can understand from his mistake is that he couldn’t find Actionbar: on a null Object Reference at com.example.Raissa.calencon.Create event.onCreate(Createvent.java:12) . What makes line 12? This seems to me something related to the Theme of the Criaevent

– Thiago Luiz Domacoski

line 12: getActionBar(). setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);

If in case you are using Theme.Holo.Light and do not want to use a ActionBar, then you can disable by changing your style.xml modifying the property windowActionBar:

<style name="AppTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light">
    <item name="android:windowActionBar">false</item>
    <item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
</style>

There are two possibilities:

It is likely that your Theme not of Actionbar support. Try to change it in the file styles.xml for this:
```
<style name="AppTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light">
```
Support:

Instead of using getActionBar , try getSupportActionBar().
