Can't create custom handler for Views2

Question
Basically I want to create a custom handler to unserialize a db field called birthday.
I've managed to correctly output the field serialized using the default views_handler_field. Unfortunately When I try to create a custom handler, I get this message:
Error: handler for drappsprofiles > birthday doesn't exist!
Here's the file structure:
all/modules/drapps/drappsprofile/
|->drappsprofiles.views.inc
|->drappsprofiles.module
|->drappsprofiles.install
|->drappsprofiles.info
|->drappsprofiles.inc
|->drappsprofiles_handler_field_birthday.inc
here's drappsprofiles.module
/**
* VIEWS2 MODULE
* Implementation hook_views_api
**/
function drappsprofiles_views_api() {
$info['api'] = 2;
return $info;
}
/*****************************************************************************
* INCLUDES
**/
// Loads Google Apps Profile Integration
module_load_include('inc', 'drappsprofiles');
(...)
here's drappsprofiles.views.inc
/**
*
* Implementation of hook_views_handlers().
*
**/
function drappsprofiles_views_handlers() {
return array(
'handlers' => array(
'drappsprofiles_handler_field_birthday' => array(
'parent' => 'views_handler_field',
)
)
);
}
/**
* Implementation of hook_views_data().
*
* @return array
**/
function drappsprofiles_views_data() {
(...)
$data['drappsprofiles']['birthday'] = array(
'title' => t('Birthday'),
'help' => t('Users birthday'),
'field' => array(
'handler' => 'drappsprofiles_handler_field_birthday',
'click sortable' => FALSE,
),
);
return $data;
}
drappsprofiles_handler_field_birthday.inc
<?php
/**
*
* Custom views handler for Birthday
*
*/
class drappsprofiles_handler_field_birthday extends views_handler_field {
function render($values) {
$val = unserialize($values->{$this->field_alias});
return ($val);
}
}
It seems that drappsprofiles_handler_field_birthday.inc is not being read, although I can't figure out why.
Any help would be appreciated. (I've been around this for 2 weeks!)
