Android spinner in layout

I am trying to populate a spinner but I seem to be missing something in my layout file

    ArrayAdapter<String> cuisines = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, R.layout.spinner_view,
    getResources().getStringArray(R.array.cuisines));

I can't find R.layout.spinner_view and can only assume that I have to make it myself in my layout file. How do I do that?

Use import com.companyname.product.R;

instead of

import android.R;

If you want to load with default spinner view, then use, 

ArrayAdapter<String> cuisines = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item,
    getResources().getStringArray(R.array.cuisines));

Include spinner in xml file as:

<Spinner 
        android:id="@+id/spin"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

and in activity:

Spinner spinner=(Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spin);
        ArrayAdapter<String> adapter=new ArrayAdapter<String>(YourActivity.this, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item,R.array.cuisines);
        adapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
        spinner.setAdapter(adapter);
