Starting Activity with a Floatingbutton

Question

So I have my List class which has a floatingbutton. I want to make it so that when i click that button it goes into another one of my activities, MainActivity. This is the code I have for my list class.

public class List extends Activity {
ImageButton floatButton;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_list);
    populateUsersList();

    floatButton = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.imageButton);
    floatButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            Intent barcodes = new Intent (List.this, MainActivity.class);
            startActivity(barcodes);
        }
    });
}

private void populateUsersList() {
    // Construct the data source
    ArrayList<User> arrayOfUsers = User.getUsers();
    // Create the adapter to convert the array to views
    UserAdapter adapter = new UserAdapter(this, arrayOfUsers);
    // Attach the adapter to a ListView
    ListView listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.lvUsers);
    listView.setAdapter(adapter);
}

It seems like it should work, but every time i click the button, this error code pops up.

How do I fix this?

Answer 1

You need to declare your activity at the manifest file.

Add this to your manifest:

<activity android:name=".MainActivity" android:screenOrientation="portrait" />

All your <activity... /> tags should be placed under the <application.. /> tag.
