Hi I have been going crazy with this.
There are several questions out there but none have seems to fix my problem. I am getting an error when ever I try to style a drawer layout.
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/drawer_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<!-- As the main content view, the view below consumes the entire
space available using match_parent in both dimensions. -->
<FrameLayout
android:id="@+id/content_frame"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
<LinearLayout
android:id="@+id/left_drawer"
android:layout_width="240dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:gravity="start"
>
<TextView
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:text="test"
android:background="@drawable/black"
android:textColor="#94A1A1"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceListItemSmall"
android:minHeight="?android:attr/listPreferredItemHeightSmall"
android:layout_weight="1"
/>
<ListView
android:id="@+id/left_drawer_child"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:choiceMode="singleChoice"
android:divider="@android:color/transparent"
android:dividerHeight="0dp"
android:background="#323232"
android:layout_weight="1"
/>
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>

/**
* This example illustrates a common usage of the DrawerLayout widget
* in the Android support library.
* <p/>
* <p>When a navigation (left) drawer is present, the host activity should detect presses of
* the action bar's Up affordance as a signal to open and close the navigation drawer. The
* ActionBarDrawerToggle facilitates this behavior.
* Items within the drawer should fall into one of two categories:</p>
* <p/>
* <ul>
* <li><strong>View switches</strong>. A view switch follows the same basic policies as
* list or tab navigation in that a view switch does not create navigation history.
* This pattern should only be used at the root activity of a task, leaving some form
* of Up navigation active for activities further down the navigation hierarchy.</li>
* <li><strong>Selective Up</strong>. The drawer allows the user to choose an alternate
* parent for Up navigation. This allows a user to jump across an app's navigation
* hierarchy at will. The application should treat this as it treats Up navigation from
* a different task, replacing the current task stack using TaskStackBuilder or similar.
* This is the only form of navigation drawer that should be used outside of the root
* activity of a task.</li>
* </ul>
* <p/>
* <p>Right side drawers should be used for actions, not navigation. This follows the pattern
* established by the Action Bar that navigation should be to the left and actions to the right.
* An action should be an operation performed on the current contents of the window,
* for example enabling or disabling a data overlay on top of the current content.</p>

Any help would be great thanks in advance
