Can't really see what's wrong in your project. Here is how I use custom view & attrs in mine :

In my library project :

attrs.xml :

in my custom class :

 TypedArray a = context.obtainStyledAttributes(attrs, R.styleable.CustomFontSize);
 if (a == null) {
      return;
 }
 CharSequence s = a.getString(R.styleable.CustomFontSize_typeFace);
 if (s != null) {
    // do something
 }

In my Main Project here an example of one of my layout :

Hope it will help ...

Edit :

in my build.gradle of my "main project"

dependencies {
    compile project(":MyLibraryProject")
}

And here the build.gradle of my library :

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.7.+'
    }
}
apply plugin: 'android-library'

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: '*.jar')
    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:19.0.0'
    compile 'com.actionbarsherlock:actionbarsherlock:4.4.0@aar'
    compile project(':WebediaCore:dependencies:DataDroid')
    compile project(':WebediaCore:dependencies:ViewPagerIndicator')
    compile project(':WebediaCore:dependencies:ActionBar-PullToRefresh')
    compile project(':WebediaCore:dependencies:Android-Universal-Image-Loader')
}

android {
    compileSdkVersion 19
    buildToolsVersion '19'

    defaultConfig {
        minSdkVersion 8
        targetSdkVersion 19
    }
}

EDIT1 :

Try to use this namespace :

xmlns:custom="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

and replace :

 iconview:icon_name="entypo_search"

by :

 custom:name="entypo_search"
