Invalid tag vector - appcompat-v7: 24.1.1

Question

OK. I read most of the available answer to similar questions, but nothing fixed my problem.

gradle classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.1.2'

android {
   defaultConfig {
      minSdkVersion 16
      targetSdkVersion 24
      vectorDrawables.useSupportLibrary = true
   }
}

dependencies {
    compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:24.1.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:24.1.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:24.1.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:24.1.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:design:24.1.1'
}

</vector>

my activity class expands AppCompatActivityand the tags android:srcchange to app:srcCompat, but still I see an error Invalid drawable tag vectoron minSdkVersionthat is set to 16.

Answer 1

The problem is resolved itself after updating to Android studio 2.2

Answer 2

- Resources.getDrawable(int), , . , ImageView.setImageDrawable(Drawable).

Google Blog Post Android Support Library 23.2:

Android Support Library 23.3.0, : srcCompat setImageResource().

. VectorDrawableCompat.create(, int, ), drawable.

ImageView.setImageResource(int), / .

, ImageView AppCompatImageView. , , , .
- , , , . - , , , leftImage ImageButton. 23.3, @Zeke. , 23.4, ,

Drawable . - ;

Drawable icon = AppCompatDrawableManager.get().getDrawable(context, resVectorID);  
// Set it for example as a left image of button
button.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds( icon, null, null, null );

I have not tested this and have no idea if this causes memory problems or not. Will it be loved if someone can follow him.

Answer 4

I like it:

public static final Drawable getMyDrawable(Context context, int id) {
     final int version = Build.VERSION.SDK_INT;
     if (version >= 21) {
         return ContextCompat.getDrawable(context, id);
     } else {
         return VectorDrawableCompat.create(context.getResources(), id,  context.getTheme());
     }
}
