ClassNotFoundException with a TextArea

Question

I'm having an error i don't understand :
I have got a fragment, here is the code and the xml

public class OrigineFragment extends Fragment {

private Mission mission;

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
        Bundle savedInstanceState) {

    View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_origine, container, false);

    return rootView;
}
}

the xml :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" >

    <TextArea android:id="@+id/date_appel_origine"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="@string/date_appel" />

</RelativeLayout>

I have got a ClassNotFoundException when inflating the TextArea, and have no clue why it behave like that, but i guess it has something to do with fragment maybe ?
