  <p>Unfortunately I am not under Eclipse.</p>
  
  <p>The code I try to run is the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>package com.example.doblevxv5.sunny;
  
  import android.os.Bundle;
  import android.view.Menu;
  import android.view.MenuItem;
  
  /**

   */
  public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
  
      @Override
      protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
          super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
          setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
          if (savedInstanceState == null) {
              getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
                      .add(R.id.container, new ForecastFragment())
                      .commit();
          }
      }
  
  
      @Override
      public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
          // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
          getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
          return true;
      }
  
      @Override
      public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
          // Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
          // automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
          // as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
          int id = item.getItemId();
          if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
              return true;
          }
          return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
      }
  
  }
  </code></pre>
