ClassCastException when trying to implement ListView in FragmentTabHost [duplicate]

Question

I am using ActionBarSherlock in my app that works for 2.3.3 and higher version. In my application in fragment tab host I am trying to implement ListView in one of the activities but I am getting ClassCastException . Please find necessary code attached .

public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                Bundle savedInstanceState) {


            // Create FragmentTabHost
            mTabHost = new FragmentTabHost(getSherlockActivity());
            // Locate fragment1.xml to create FragmentTabHostx
            mTabHost.setup(getSherlockActivity(), getChildFragmentManager(), R.layout.fragment1);
          // Create Tab 1

            mTabHost.addTab(
                    mTabHost.newTabSpec("tab1").setIndicator("ALL",
                            getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.all)),
                    CreateEvent.class, null);
            //mTabHost.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec("tab1").setContent(R.drawable.fb).setIndicator("Tab 1"), CreateEvent.class, null);
                 // Create Tab 2
            mTabHost.addTab(mTabHost.newTabSpec("tab2").setIndicator("NEARBY",getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.near_by)), CreateEvent.class, null);

            mTabHost.getTabWidget().setBackgroundColor(Color.GRAY);
            return mTabHost;
        }

The CreateEvent.class has a listView in it . public class CreateEvent extends SherlockListActivity implements OnItemClickListener{ }

for FSM sake !!! CreateEvent extends Activity but it should extends ListFragment since you're using FragmentTabHost and you wana have ListView ... there should be some class in ABS API for this ... — Selvin
