Example to implement SlidingDrawer in XML

SlidingDrawer hides content out of the screen and allows the user to drag a handle to bring the content on screen.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    >
<TextView  
    android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
    android:text="@string/hello"
    />
<SlidingDrawer
     android:id="@+id/drawer"
     android:layout_width="fill_parent"
     android:layout_height="wrap_content"
     android:orientation="vertical"
     android:handle="@+id/handle"
     android:content="@+id/content">
<ImageView 
     android:id="@id/handle"
     android:layout_width="fill_parent"
     android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
     android:src="@drawable/icon"/>
<LinearLayout
     android:id="@id/content"
     android:layout_width="fill_parent"
     android:layout_height="fill_parent"
     android:orientation="vertical">
<Button
     android:layout_width="fill_parent"
     android:layout_height="fill_parent" 
     android:text="Big Big Button"/>
</LinearLayout>
     
</SlidingDrawer>
</LinearLayout>
