I made a NavigationView inside a DrawerLayout in an XML file - but when I try to initialize it in Java I get this error.
// DrawerLayout initialises fine
DrawerLayout drawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.nav_drawer);
// Cannot resolve symbol 'NavigationView'
NavigationView navView = (NavigationView) findViewById(R.id.navigation_view);
I tried adding the import line
import android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
but this is also giving me errors. Any ideas? Haven't been able to find a solution online.
Edit: After adding dependency given in Tanis' answer, I get these errors
Error:A problem occurred configuring project ':app'.
> Could not resolve all dependencies for configuration ':app:_debugCompile'.
> Could not find com.android.support:design:22.2.1.
