Android Error inflating class SwipeRefreshLayout

android, android-fragments, swiperefreshlayout

Solution

You need to use a full package name for `SwipeRefreshLayout`:

<android.support.v4.widget.SwipeRefreshLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    tools:context="com.ryan.brooks.fropllc.frop.app.whatsGoingOnFragment"
    android:id="@+id/swipe_refresh_whats_going_on">

    <ScrollView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:background="#343434"></ScrollView>

</android.support.v4.widget.SwipeRefreshLayout>

Problem

I am working on an App right now that uses 3 tabs with a fragment in each and I am trying to implement SwipeRefreshLayout in each of these fragments. I believe that I have created this correctly, but I continue to get the errors: ``` android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #1: Error inflating class SwipeRefreshLayout Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class "android.view.SwipeRefreshLayout" on path: DexPathList[[zip file "/data/app/com.ryan.brooks.fropllc.frop.app-1.apk"],nativeLibraryDirectories=[/data/app-lib/com.ryan.brooks.fropllc.frop.app-1, /vendor/lib, /system/lib]] at com.ryan.brooks.fropllc.frop.app.whatsGoingOnFragment.onCreateView(whatsGoingOnFragment.java:23) ``` Now I have absolutely no idea what is causing this. If anybody could help me that would be tremendously appreciated. Here is my fragment layout where I am implementing the SwipeRefreshLayout: ``` <SwipeRefreshLayout android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:id="@+id/swipe_refresh_whats_going_on"> <ScrollView android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:background="#343434"></ScrollView> </SwipeRefreshLayout> ``` And here is my fragment class where I am calling the SwipeRefreshLayout. ``` public class WhatsGoingOnFragment extends Fragment { private SwipeRefreshLayout swipeLayout; @Override public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) { // Inflate the layout for this fragment View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.whats_going_on_fragment, container, false); // Retrieve the SwipeRefreshLayout and ListView instances swipeLayout = (SwipeRefreshLayout) view.findViewById(R.id.swipe_refresh_whats_going_on); // Set the color scheme of the SwipeRefreshLayout by providing 4 color resource ids swipeLayout.setColorScheme( android.R.color.holo_blue_bright, android.R.color.holo_green_light, android.R.color.holo_orange_light, android.R.color.holo_red_light); return view; } } ``` Both the layouts and class structure are the exact same for all 3 fragments just with id name changes. I really have no clue what is going wrong here. Again any help is greatly appreciated!
