I'm reviving an old application I used to develop and I encouter a few problems.
The current one I'm facing is:

java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'void android.support.v7.widget.SearchView.setOnQueryTextFocusChangeListener(android.view.View$OnFocusChangeListener)' on a null object reference

Ofcourse, this happens because a previos call to getActionView() returns null.
I've tried to update the dependencies, but nothing worked.

This is the code I try to run:

@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) 
 getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);

 final MenuItem searchItem = menu.findItem(R.id.search);
 et = (SearchView) searchItem.getActionView();
 et.setOnQueryTextFocusChangeListener(new View.OnFocusChangeListener() 

 @Override
 public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) 
 // TODO Auto-generated method stub
 if (hasFocus) 
 
 
 );
 et.setOnQueryTextListener(new SearchView.OnQueryTextListener() 
 @Override
 public boolean onQueryTextChange(String newText) 
 expListAdapter.getFilter().filter(newText);
 cmAdapter.getFilter().filter(newText);
 allAdapter.getFilter().filter(newText);
 playlistAdapter.getFilter().filter(newText);
 return false;
 

 @Override
 public boolean onQueryTextSubmit(String query) 
 return false;
 
 );
 return true;
