ClassCastException : java.lang.ClassCastException: android.widget.LinearLayout$LayoutParams cannot be cast to android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout

Question

I have written a program for a navigation drawer which was working perfectly, but recently i have tried to put an ImageView for a profile picture and a TextView, after that it gives me a ClassCastException.

main_activity.xml : When I remove the LinearLayout inside that the ImageView and the TextView are, its working perfectly.

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

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"

            android:layout_height="1dp"

Should I change my XML code or java code?

Thank you!

Actually i found out the solution , in place of drawer.closeDrawer(drawerlist) , i put drawer.closeDrawer(linearlayout); — narahari_arjun

You have an error here drawer.closeDrawer(drawerList); I think you should do this this way: drawer.closeDrawer(drawer). You are using wrong layout, just change to DrawerLayout.

You are trying to close the list which isn't a "drawer". Try using drawer.closeDrawers(); instead of drawer.closeDrawer(drawerList).

drawerList.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {

    @Override 
    public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int 
        position, long id) {
        displayView(position);
        drawer.closeDrawers();
    } 

    private void selectItem(int position) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub 
        drawerList.setItemChecked(position, true);
        setTitle(Menus[position]);

    } 

    public void setTitle(String title) {
        getSupportActionBar().setTitle(title);

    } 
});
