If you are using new androidx implementations, when typing Toolbar, the Studio will autocomplete it to android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar, but you should use androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar instead, otherwise you will get this error.

Sorry Guys. I have solved this Issue long ago. I did a lot of changes. So I can't figure out which one does the trick.

  1. I have changed the id as suggested by Jared Burrows.

  2. Removed my support library and cleaned my project and Re added it.

  3. Go to File -> Invalidate Caches/Restart.

Hope it works.

This is how my code looks now

activity.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

    <include
        android:id="@+id/toolbar_actionbar"
        layout="@layout/toolbar_default"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

    <android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout
        android:id="@+id/drawer"
        xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:layout_below="@+id/toolbar_actionbar">

        <FrameLayout
            android:id="@+id/container"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"/>

        <fragment
            android:id="@+id/fragment_drawer"
            android:name="com.arul.anahy.drawer.NavigationDrawerFragment"
            android:layout_width="@dimen/navigation_drawer_width"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:layout_gravity="start"
            app:layout="@layout/fragment_navigation_drawer"/>
    </android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>
</RelativeLayout>

toolbar_default.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
    style="@style/ToolBarStyle"
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
    android:minHeight="@dimen/abc_action_bar_default_height_material"/>

ToolBarStyle

<style name="ToolBarStyle" parent="">
        <item name="popupTheme">@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light</item>
        <item name="theme">@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar</item>
 </style>

This happened to me when I tried to use my older code in new android with androidx implementations. change your XML definition to;

<androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar
            android:id="@+id/toolbar"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
            android:background="@color/colorPrimary"
            android:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.ActionBar"
            app:titleTextColor="@android:color/white" />

then in your java code;

import androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar;

I was able to solve this problem by replacing the following:

In the Toolbar layout, replace everything which is like this:

android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"

with

android:minHeight="@dimen/abc_action_bar_default_height_material"
android:background="@color/myColor"
