getSupportActionBar crashes my app

I'm trying to use actionbar in my application, however getSupportActionBar crashes my app.

This was working, but I don't know what I've done to make it crash (I've remove everything and tried again, it keeps crashing ).

import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBar;
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.Window;
import android.view.WindowManager;
import android.widget.LinearLayout;

public class MainMenu extends ActionBarActivity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        ActionBar actionbar = getSupportActionBar();
        getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN,
                WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);
        getWindow().requestFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main_menu);
        LinearLayout v = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.layout);
        v.setBackgroundColor(0xffECECEC);


    }

    /*
    @Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.actionbar, menu);
        return true;
    }
    */
    public void play(View view){
        Intent intent = new Intent(MainMenu.this, Levels.class);
        startActivity(intent);
    }


}

when i was directly using getSupportActionBar() method my app was crashed instead of that i am using ActionBar actionbar=getSupportActionBar(); then you can do and perform any operation on action bar like actionbar.show(),actionbar.hide() and other operations.

If you only want actionbar then you can adjust your code like below.

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main_menu);
    ActionBar actionbar = getSupportActionBar();
    LinearLayout v = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.layout);
    v.setBackgroundColor(0xffECECEC);


}

We should not write the actionbar code before setContentView() method.

And if you want full screen then there is no use of actionBar in your activity.
