InflateException Binary XML file at line #7: Error inflating class fragment

Question

I've been doing some research of this problem but no solution has yet to work for me. I've added empty constructors in the fragment classes and tried with different imports of fragments, but nothing seems to work. I hope you guys can help me!

My Activity:

package com.example.com.example.android.rssfeed;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;

public class RssfeedActivity extends Activity implements MyListFragment.OnItemSelectedListener {

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_rssfeed);
}

public void onRssItemSelected(String link) {
    DetailFragment fragment = (DetailFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.detailFragment);

    if (fragment != null && fragment.isInLayout()) {
        fragment.setText(link);
    }//end if
}//end method onRssItemSelected

}//end class

My fragment:

package com.example.com.example.android.rssfeed;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Fragment;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.Button;


public class MyListFragment extends Fragment {

public MyListFragment() {

}

private OnItemSelectedListener listener;


@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_rsslist_overview, container, false);
    Button button = (Button) view.findViewById(R.id.btn1);
    button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            updateDetail();
        }//end onClick
    });
    return view;
}//end onCreateView

public interface OnItemSelectedListener {
    public void onRssItemSelected(String link);
}//end onItemSelectedListener

@Override
    public void onAttach(Activity activity) {
    super.onAttach(activity);

        if (activity instanceof OnItemSelectedListener) {
            listener = (OnItemSelectedListener) activity;

        } else {
            throw new ClassCastException(activity.toString()
                    + "Must implement MyListFragment.OnItemSelectedListener");
        }//end else

}//end onAttach

//May also be triggered from the activity
public void updateDetail() {
    //Create fake data
    String newTime = String.valueOf(System.currentTimeMillis());
    // Send data to Activity
    listener.onRssItemSelected(newTime);
}//end method updateDetail
}//end class

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class "com.example.android.rssfeed.MyListFragment" on path: /data/app/com.example.com.example.android.rssfeed-1.apk

Change this

 class="com.example.android.rssfeed.MyListFragment"

to

 class="com.example.com.example.android.rssfeed.MyListFragment"

cause the packagename is package com.example.com.example.android.rssfeed.

Similarly

 class="com.example.com.example.android.rssfeed.DetailFragment"

if the package name is the same

Change this

<button
android:id="@+id/btn1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Press to Update">

To

<Button
android:id="@+id/btn1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Press to Update" />
