How to resolve problem of inflateException when I include a layout?

I design a new form name (form_info.xml) to get some information from user then I tried to include the form to activity_main.xml but unfortunately app crashed and I got inflateExcdeption but I don’t know how to handle it. Also when I add my new form by means of setContentView (R.layout.form_info) I got same error.

package com.google.a05_layout_decoration_design_form_information;

import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;

import android.os.Bundle;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

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

There is activity_main.xml:

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    tools:context=".MainActivity">

    <include layout="@layout/form_info"/>

</RelativeLayout>

And below is form_info.xml :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

Answer

Change your view component to this :

<View
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="2dp"
    android:background="#000000"
    android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
    android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"/>

Use View instead of view.
