API Error 21 21?

Question

In my current development process, I came across a very strange error ... In all tested versions of the API, the application works perfectly, smoothly and without errors, but only on API 21 I received the following error, and I do not know how to fix it.

Can someone help me fix this? File

RES / Hood-V21 / abc_edit_text_material.xml

is included in the appcompat lib, I think ... I already updated the build tools, cleared everything several times, reinstalled everything and even the hardresettet device, but this did not change anything. I worked a few weeks ago ... Suddenly this happened, and I do not know what has changed ... (did not touch the project)

Answer 1

I believe this is a problem with the latest version of the gradle plugin.

I use:

 classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.0-alpha3' 

and I get the same error as you.

You can return to this version of the plugin to fix the problem:

 classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.1.0' 

However, this means that you cannot use Instant Run if you are using the Preview Studio version for Android.

For reference, I am using android studio:

 Android Studio 2.2 Preview 3 Build #AI-145.2949926, built on June 7, 2016 JRE: 1.8.0_76-release-b01 x86_64 JVM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM by JetBrains sro 

I tried v21 device and got an error. On devices running <21 or> 21, no error was received.
