Error inflating class android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView Android

I found found route cause of this problem as

My project migrated to AndroidX through AndroidStudio tools : Refactor -> Migrate to AndroidX..

In AndroidX this package was not available , which is causing this issue.


To resolve this problem please make this change :

Replaced :

android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView

with

androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView

and it worked!
