4,374 PointsAdding Action Bar in ListActivity
In my ListActivity i have to display an action bar but i cant. i have searched on the internet, all links tell me to change my app theme to holo.light but that doesnt work as when i do that my ribbit app crashes. I think that is because my main activity is extending action bar activity Main activity displays the action bar I want the action bar in my recipientsActivtity which extends ListActivty. How can i do that in android Studio?
