Error in styles.xml in android-support-v7-mediarouter

Question

Below is the styles.xml file for android-support-v7-mediarouter.

<resources> <style name="Widget.MediaRouter.MediaRouteButton" parent="Widget.AppCompat.ActionButton"> <item name="android:minWidth">56dp</item> <item name="android:minHeight">48dp</item> <item name="android:padding">0dp</item> <item name="android:focusable">true</item> <item name="android:contentDescription">@string/mr_media_route_button_content_description</item> <item name="externalRouteEnabledDrawable">@drawable/mr_ic_media_route_holo_dark</item> </style> <style name="Widget.MediaRouter.Light.MediaRouteButton" parent="Widget.AppCompat.Light.ActionButton"> <item name="android:minWidth">56dp</item> <item name="android:minHeight">48dp</item> <item name="android:padding">0dp</item> <item name="android:focusable">true</item> <item name="android:contentDescription">@string/mr_media_route_button_content_description</item> <item name="externalRouteEnabledDrawable">@drawable/mr_ic_media_route_holo_light</item> </style> </resources> 

But I get a lot of errors not found, some of them:

I am trying to get a sample QuickBlox chat to work . ** EDIT: ** Version:

Answer 1

In Eclipse , to share the mediarouter library in multiple Android projects, follow these steps:

• In Eclipse, select File | Import | Existing projects in the workspace . Click Next .

• Click Browse and go to the directory for the Android application directory. The default directory should be: ..\android-sdk\extras\android\support\v7\mediarouter\ .

• Click Finish to add a new project.

• Click the Android Project Properties tab.

• On the Properties screen, select the Android option (in the left pane), then click Add and select a mediarouter from the list.

• Click OK to save the changes.

IMPORTANT Repeat the steps above to add the appcompat and gridlayout to your Android projects, as these libraries are needed by the mediarouter library. When the appcompat and gridlayout libraries are added to the workspace, add the appcompat and gridlayout libraries to the mediarouter project by following steps 4 through 6 above and replacing the name appcompat / gridlayout where necessary.

To embed the mediarouter library in each of your Android projects, simply copy the JAR files from the mediarouter libs folder to the libs project folder. You also need to copy the libraries from the appcompat and gridlayout folders to the libs project folder too!

Answer 2

The media router for Android depends on the appcompat v7 library. to solve this problem correctly, add appcompat as a dependency for your android-support-v7-mediarouter library project, and then add a media router as a dependency for your own project ...

more like your project depends on support android-support-v7-mediarouter which depends on appcompat_v7

old question, late answer, but hope this helps someone. Took me some time to figure it out.
