When I try to add an ActionbarSherlock SearchView to my ActionBar the application crashes as soon as the activity should be shown. As reason for this, I found the following in LogCat:

10-22 21:22:51.070: W/MenuInflater(21873): Cannot instantiate class: com.actionbarsherlock.widget.SearchView

When I use the regular android.widget.SearchView for the android:actionViewClass everything works fine. I followed the tutorial from the Android website.

This is my menu xml

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

    <item
        android:id="@+id/menu_search"
        android:actionViewClass="com.actionbarsherlock.widget.SearchView"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_a
android actionbarsherlock
