Android - Binary XML file line #11: Error inflating class

Question

Not sure why its giving me this error. The XML is super simple and I just have a class which assigns the objects.

<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">
    <fragment
        android:id="@+id/mapview"
        android:name="com.testapp.app.custom.CustomMap"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
        android:layout_weight='4' />
    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/map_pin"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:src="@drawable/nav_location_start"
        android:layout_marginBottom="25dp"
        android:layout_gravity="center"
        android:scaleType="center"/>
</FrameLayout>

Class

public class MapPinView extends FrameLayout {

   public SupportMapFragment getMapView() {
       return mapView;
   }

   public void setMapView(SupportMapFragment mapView) {
       this.mapView = mapView;
   }

   SupportMapFragment mapView;
   private ImageView mapPin;

   public MapPinView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
       super(context, attrs);

       LayoutInflater layoutInflater = (LayoutInflater)context.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
       View linearLayout = layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.mapview_pin_layout, this);

       this.mapPin = (ImageView) linearLayout.findViewById(R.id.map_pin);
   }

   public ImageView getMapPin() {
       return mapPin;
   }

   public void setMapPin(ImageView mapPin) {
       this.mapPin = mapPin;
   }
}

Its crashing on Line 11 of the xml which is the imageview. From other posts, most people have been getting out of memory errors but I haven't seen that error yet. Any help is appreciated.

Have you defined an other element in the project with the same id as `` in this layout? — Prerak Sola, Dec 22 '15 at 17:06
Try to change the id of your fragment ref: `Duplicate id 0x7f0b0124, tag null, or parent id 0x0 with another fragment for com.testapp.app.custom.CustomMap` — Context, Dec 23 '15 at 10:40
The id is only ever called once. Does it help to know that this class is a fragment? Any chance it gets created more then once? Does onCreate in a fragment get called more then once? — Mikerizzo, Dec 23 '15 at 16:22

You have done something not acceptable in fragment handling. Take a look at this documentation.

Note: You cannot inflate a layout into a fragment when that layout includes a <fragment>. Nested fragments are only supported when added to a fragment dynamically.

You should instead add fragments programmatically by calling getChildFragmentManager()

Here is an example from the same documentation:

Fragment videoFragment = new VideoPlayerFragment();
FragmentTransaction transaction = getChildFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
transaction.add(R.id.video_fragment, videoFragment).commit();
