$ NotFoundException Resources for Vector-wrapped ImageView

Question

I had a crash - Resources$NotFoundException for a vector that can be retrieved when an activity is created. Crash on pre-21.

• Android Studio 2.1
• Support Library 24.0.0
• Gradle plugin 2.1.0
• targetSdk 23
• minSdk 15
• buildToolsVersion 23.0.2
• Debugging on sdk 16 emulator

in the build.gradle application module I have:

 vectorDrawables.useSupportLibrary = true 

This activity is a subclass of AppCompatActivity . Fragment is a subclass of Fragment support.

In the action that I invoke:

 static { AppCompatDelegate.setCompatVectorFromResourcesEnabled(true); } 

Xml view parameter:

 <ImageView android:layout_width="64dp" android:layout_height="match_parent" app:srcCompat="@drawable/ic_map_white_24dp" android:background="@color/vibrant5" android:scaleType="center"/> 

Xml portable vector:

 <vector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:width="24dp" android:height="24dp" android:viewportWidth="24.0" android:viewportHeight="24.0"> <path android:fillColor="#FFffffff" android:pathData="M20.5,3l-0.16,0.03L15,5.1 9,3 3.36,4.9c-0.21,0.07 -0.36,0.25 -0.36,0.48V20.5c0,0.28 0.22,0.5 0.5,0.5l0.16,-0.03L9,18.9l6,2.1 5.64,-1.9c0.21,-0.07 0.36,-0.25 0.36,-0.48V3.5c0,-0.28 -0.22,-0.5 -0.5,-0.5zM15,19l-6,-2.11V5l6,2.11V19z"/>

I do not see anything that could be wrong. I follow all the recommendations for vectors, but still

Answer 1

Self-answer: Moving xml from drawable-anydpi to drawable fixes the problem. (but the layout editor still doesn't work).

Answer 2

From the Android Developers Blog :

As in Android Support Library 23.3.0, support for vector drawings can only be downloaded through the application: srcCompat or setImageResource ()

This can solve an InflateException in the XML file.

Answer 3

This was decided for me at the moment when I changed the support library from 24 to 23. Not sure why, but 24 seems to violate KitKat compatibility.
