I just started development for Android, and I am stuck with this code:

public class Home extends Activity {
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.home);
        Button buttonFoo = (Button)findViewById(R.id.buttonFoo);
        buttonFoo.setOnClickListener(openFoo);
    }

    public OnClickListener openFoo = new OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(View v) {
            Intent intent = new Intent(Home.this, Foo.class);
            startActivity(intent);
        }
    };
}

And here is the code of activity Foo:

public class Foo extends Activity {
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        //populateWithLatest();
    }
}

And the error log:

Unless I comment the line startActivity(intent);, the app force closes when I press the Foo button.

    <application android:label="@string/app_name" android:icon="@drawable/icon">
    <activity android:name=".Home"
              android:label="@string/app_name">
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>

    <activity android:name=".Foo"></activity>

    This is my favorite part:

    I don’t know if this is the best way to implement a button, but here’s how I do it:

    findViewById(R.id.buttonFoo).setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
    public void onClick(View v) {
        Intent i = new Intent(v.getContext(), Foo.class);
        startActivity(i);
    }
});
