I'm attempting to follow this guide to implementing an Android Navigation Drawer:

and I'm getting following error:

In my source line # 125 is:
setContentView(R.layout.ss_home);
the contents of R.layout.ss_home are:
<DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginBottom="00dp"
android:layout_marginTop="0dp"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:id="@+id/RootView" >
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="280dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:id="@+id/drawerPane"
android:layout_gravity="start">
...
If anyone can shed some light on why this might be happening / how to resolve it - it would be greatly appreciated.
I'm stumped at this point (the resource it says is missing - exists! [also - I have tried cleaning the project and restarting Eclipse])
On the XML change,
<DrawerLayout
to <android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout
and don't forget to integrate the support library
