Error: resource identifier for attribute 'srcCompat'

Question

I added 2 images using Copy + Paste in the folder @drawable, but I get an error

 Error:(25) No resource identifier found for attribute 'srcCompat' in package 'com.example.francydarkcool.maps'

I added:

defaultConfig {
 vectorDrawables.useSupportLibrary = true;
 ...
}

in build.gradle

and:

    ImageView img1 = new ImageView(this);
    img1.setImageResource(R.drawable.cascada3);
    setContentView(img1);

    ImageView img2 = new ImageView(this);
    img2.setImageResource(R.drawable.cascada1);
    setContentView(img2);

in my .java file.

This is my activity_cascada_urlatoarea.xml file:

If I try to change

xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

with

xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/lib/com.app.chasebank"

I do not get errors, but images are not displayed ...

Please, help.

Answer 1

make sure that in your build.gradle application , which is under the dependency .. you are using the latest version of the support library (any version 23.3+ will work).

compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:24.1.1'

.
