how to fix inflating fragment inside onther

Question

I’m trying to make footer for my fragment. I succeed to do it but still have a problem when I load this fragment for the first time it's work well, but when I change the fragments in my navigation drawer and trying to get this fragment for the second time the app crash and the log error show me an error :

 android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #17: Error inflating class fragment
        at android.view.LayoutInflater.createViewFromTag(LayoutInflater.java:713)
        at android.view.LayoutInflater.rInflate(LayoutInflater.java:755)
        at android.view.LayoutInflater.inflate(LayoutInflater.java:492)
        at android.view.LayoutInflater.inflate(LayoutInflater.java:397)
 Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Binary XML file line #17: 
 Duplicate id 0x7f070084, tag null, or parent id 0x7f070082 with another fragment for   com.example.user.unchained.FooterHome

So any one have an idea to resolve the problem

The OnCreateView Function :

 @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
            Bundle savedInstanceState) {

        v =   inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_homes, container, false);

        listView = (ListView) v.findViewById(R.id.homeList);

        l = new HomeListAdapter(this, homeList);
        listView.setAdapter(l);

        return v;

    }

The main Layout 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"
android:background="@color/dark_grey"
android:id="@+id/fHome"
tools:context="com.example.user.unchained.HomesActivity$PlaceholderFragment">

<ListView
    android:id="@+id/homeList"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:dividerHeight="1dp"
    android:choiceMode="singleChoice"
    android:listSelector="@drawable/list_row_selector" />

<fragment
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:name="com.example.user.unchained.FooterHome"
    android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
    android:id="@+id/foo"
    android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
    android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
    tools:layout="@layout/footer_home" />


 </RelativeLayout>

The Footer Layout XML.

<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

 </FrameLayout>

Start with changing your `new HomeListAdapter(this, homeList)`. If it receives a context as 1st parameter you should be passing getActivity() instead of this. — Pedro Oliveira, Oct 09 '14 at 08:17
why getActiviy? i have the list in a fragment and not an activity ! — Karimx, Oct 09 '14 at 08:40
What is the 1st parameter on the HomeListAdapter constructor? — Pedro Oliveira, Oct 09 '14 at 08:42

Your error message says: "Duplicate id 0x7f070084..." That makes me think you cannot add the same fragment twice if the root of your fragment has an id.

It's just a guess, but try it without the android:id attributes on the root element.

update

See if you can find out which ids the error message is talking about. Check your R class. It is auto-generated from the layout xml files where it generates unique numbers for each id that you add with the "@+id/some_name" notation.

The error message mentions a problem with id 0x7f070084 or id 0x7f070082. It doesn't mention them by name which would probably give you a better hint where to look for the problem.

But you can look up the names in the auto-generated R class. On Android Studio you can find the R class in the following path: app/build/generated/source/r/debug/com/example/user/unchained/debug. I don't know if Eclipse uses a different path, but I'm sure you can figure it out.

Open the R.java file and search for the id numbers that are mentioned in your error message.

It says "or" too. So it could be that the error is not on the id — Pedro Oliveira, Oct 09 '14 at 08:56
