How to fix ' You must specifiy a layout in the include tag: <include layout="@layout/layoutID" />'

Question

I am creating an android application using material design in android studio for pre lollipop devices and i am new to android studio i am creating a tool bar in my project but i am getting an error called " Caused by: android.view.InflateException: You must specifiy a layout in the include tag: " please help me to solve this, This is my activity code:

package sample.lakshman.com.sampleltester;

import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar;


public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
    public Toolbar toolbar;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.tool_bar);
        setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
    }


    @Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu);
        return true;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
        // Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
        // automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
        // as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
        int id = item.getItemId();

        //noinspection SimplifiableIfStatement
        if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
            return true;
        }

        return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
    }
}

This is my xml:

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

    <include
        android:id="@+id/tool_bar"
        android:layout="@layout/tool_bar" />
</RelativeLayout>

This is my Toolbar Xml:

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <android.widget.Toolbar xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:background="#E91E63">

    </android.widget.Toolbar>


This is my logcat:

Answer 1

layout="@layout/view_toolbar" 

instead

android:layout="@layout/view_toolbar

Answer 2

I find answer to my own question. In my tool activity_main xml layout i replaced android:layout="@layout/tool_bar" with layout="@layout/tool_bar" and in tool bar layout android.widget.Toolbar with android.support.v7.widget.Tool bar Check out below my both xml files

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

    <include
        android:id="@+id/tool_bar"
        android:layout="@layout/tool_bar" />
</RelativeLayout>

Corrected and working xml:

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

    <include
        android:id="@+id/tool_bar"
        layout="@layout/tool_bar" />
</RelativeLayout>
