Class Activity extends ActionBarActivity deprecated

When i create a new activity it automatically extends ActionBarActivity which is deprecated. The question is , Do i do something with it? or just leave it alone?

i tried to replace the ActionBarActivity with AppCompatActivity but it gives me errors in the rest of the class.

Thanks.

Either is fine. If you wish to get rid of the deprecation warning, replace ActionBarActivity with AppCompatActivity. Hopefully, the new-activity templates will be fixed in an upcoming release of Android Studio.

Make sure that you add the import statement to import AppCompatActivity. This directory contains several sample projects that use appcompat-v7 and AppCompatActivity.

Beyond that, consider asking a separate Stack Overflow question, where you provide your code and list the errors.
