I have been trying to change this part of my gradle.
compileOptions {
sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
}
Each time I find a post about how to fix the current error a new error appears.
I'm trying to include a java library in an android studio project.
The library uses JDK 14 or higher.
So I downloaded jdk-14.0.2 and updated the variable JAVA_HOME to C:\Progra~1\Java\jdk-14.0.2
(after struggling to make android studio compile with this one)
I can compile a new project just changing the JDK to use in Project structure -> JDK location.
But updating the JavaVersion to any higher number throws error: package android.os does not exist
Solved it adding this to dependencies
implementation files("${android.getSdkDirectory().getAbsolutePath()}/platforms/${android.compileSdkVersion}/android.jar")
But now I get several of these errors
com.android.tools.r8.errors.b: Unsupported class file version: 58
Others are in java.lang or other places, but all say Unsupported class file version: 58
Is there a way to make android studio properly work with a higher JavaVersion?
All posts I see say that is as simple as just change the JDK location, but it hasn't been like that.
Currently android can only work up to Java11.
I found this when gradle updated to 7.0, this version required Java11.
Seems for this you also need to have Android Studio Arctic Fox.
With this my app's gradle can have this
android {
compileSdkVersion 30
defaultConfig {
minSdkVersion 26
targetSdkVersion 30
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
}
compileOptions {
sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_11
targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_11
}
}
I'm very new at Android app development and trying to apply some changes on an existing project. When I try to change the Compile Sdk Version in Project Structure in Android Studio, it displays a red warning (Invalid hash string) on the right side of the chosen Sdk "Vuzix Corporation:Vuzix M300 SDK:23" and doesn't apply the changes. And then I realised the same also happens for "Google Inc.:Google APIs:23".
It's an app built for Vuzix M300 augmented reality glasses and I followed the documentation on their site to update an existing project and install the M300 SDK in Android Studio. First I built the app using the standard Sdk with Compile Sdk Version API 23: Android 6.0 (Marshmallow), as they recommended to do so. Later they want us to change the Compile Sdk Version to Vuzix M300 SDK (API 23) in Project Structure, which didn't work.
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
android {
compileSdkVersion 23
buildToolsVersion '28.0.3'
defaultConfig {
applicationId "de.tum.fml.pbvofflineapp"
minSdkVersion 15
targetSdkVersion 15
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
}
buildTypes {
release {
minifyEnabled false
proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
}
}
}
dependencies {
implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
}
I expect that the compileSdkVersion should change but I don't know what it should be for that specific Sdk.
your compileSdkVersion , targetSdkVersion and buildToolsVersion should be on the same version level .
also , in the SDK Manager, make sure SDK version is installed.
after that run "invalidate caches/restart" if the problem persist
Edit
if you are using gradle plugin version 3.4.1
This version of the Android plugin requires the following:
SDK Build Tools 28.0.3 or higher.
source
which means you can't use compileSdkVersion 23
If you change compileSdkVersion change also targetSdkVersion to the same. It has no sense to target a previous sdk and compile with greater one. Also you should have buildToolsVersion according with compile sdk
If you not choose your desired Compile Sdk Version as "Vuzix Corporation:Vuzix M300 SDK:23".
which will leads to can not find custom add-on sdk class build error.
Recently dove into the world of React-Native and got roadblocked immediately. Bought a course from Udemy called The Complete React Native and Redux Course and got stuck trying to compile my first application.
I've tried a bunch of different solutions and have gone through a variety of different errors so its come to the point where I have to make my first stackoverflow post. Going to post a bunch of my current settings below as well as the error im receiving.

In the course im using the instructor says to use the NEXUS 5 API 23, incase that helps. Gradle builds within Android Studio no errors.
Thanks for any and all help
Solved.
Deleted my project, recreated it with react-native init ProjectName, ran AVD, compiled project through terminal. I think I altered too many configurations in my old one and needed to recreate it.
I've always programmed Android with Eclipse and decided to start migrating to Android Studio. I decided to use the same SDK I already had for Eclipse, then:
Started a new project
Set minimum SDK 4.0 (API Level 14)
Choose Blank Activity option
Used Default names for Activity Name and Layout Name
Hit Finish
After a few seconds Gradle finishes the build, and it throws me two errors with the following messages in file Teste4\app\build\intermediates/exploded-aar\com.android.support\appcompat-v7\23.0.0\res\values-v23\values-v23.xml:
Error:(2) Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'android:TextAppearance.Material.Widget.Button.Inverse'.
Error:(2) Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'android:Widget.Material.Button.Colored'.
Under File -> Project Structure -> Modules: app (left column) -> Properties tab, I have the following versions set up:
"Compile Sdk Version": Android 5.1 (API Level 22)
"Build Tools Version": 23.0.2
What should I do in order to fix this?
I already tried what was suggested in Stack Overflow question appcompat-v7:21.0.0': No resource found that matches the given name: attr 'android:actionModeShareDrawable', but it didn't work.
Your compile SDK version must match the support library's major version.
Since you are using version 23 of the support library, you need to compile against version 23 of the Android SDK.
Alternatively you can continue compiling against version 22 of the Android SDK by switching to the latest support library v22.
This happens because after updates Android Studio uses API version 23 by default.
The following worked for me:
Press Ctrl + Shift + Alt + S to get to the project structure page. Go to the properties tab and change 23.0.0 to 22.0.1 (or equivalent to what you were using earlier) in the build tool area and rebuild your project.
If that doesn't work, go to gradle:app and then
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:22.2.1'
Edit v7:23.0.0 to v7:22.2.1 as shown above and sync gradle. This will definitely work.
When you update your Android Studio, it uses API version 23 by default,
which is the main reason for its occurrence. So,
At first, check your AppCompat version in build.gradle(Module:app)
That is,
If after changing to 23 there occurs an error then just download
Compile Sdk Version to API 23, and Build Tools Version to 23.0.0
from SDK Manager. If already downloaded then:
1. Go to SDK Manager and
2. Under Project Structure, change *Compile SDK Version* to API 23, and *Build Tools Version* to 23.0.0
Click the SDK Manager Button and open the dialog.
Click SDK Platform and check if Android 6.0 is downloaded or not.
if not, then download that first. After completing the download, click Apply.
Now you need to apply changes to your project from setting.
Then press Ctrl + Alt + Shift + S to open setting
Click the app from the list.
Click properties
Change your Compile SDK Version to API 23
Change your Build Tools Version to 23.0.0
Don't forget to rebuild your project.
Then your error will be gone.
If you've tried to change target to a previous GooglePlayServices or AppCompatv7 version and it doesn't work, check if you have any project-libraries dependency, this project will be targeting the latest version of any of these libraries. It happened to me with the Google Maps Utils Library project:
replace:
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:+'
to
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:8.3.0'
Then you can continue full targeting API 22
If it still doesn't compile, sometimes is useful to set compileSdkVersion API to 23 and targetSdkVersion to 22.
I agree with the previous answer. Your compile SDK version must match the support library. Here is what I did.
You can go to SDK Manager and under SDK Platform, install the Android 5.X with API level 23.
Under Project Structure, change compile SDK Version to API 23, and Build Tools Version to 23.0.0
Then it should build without problem.
You need to set compileSdkVersion to 23.
Since API 23 Android removed the deprecated Apache Http packages, so if you use them for server requests, you'll need to add useLibrary 'org.apache.http.legacy' to build.gradle as stated in this link:
android {
compileSdkVersion 23
buildToolsVersion "23.0.0"
...
//only if you use Apache packages
useLibrary 'org.apache.http.legacy'
}
This issue is raised because now the compile SDK version must match the Android Support library's major version.
In my case i have the Android Support Library version 23, so i had to compile against the Android SDK version 23, and I had to change this in my build.gradle file:
Well some of you will need to install the SDK, Android 6.0 (API 23)
and don´t forget to Sync project with gradle files
android {
compileSdkVersion 23
buildToolsVersion '23.0.1'
defaultConfig {
applicationId ""
minSdkVersion 14
targetSdkVersion 22
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
}
buildTypes {
release {
minifyEnabled false
proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
}
}
}
dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
compile 'com.google.code.gson:gson:2.3.1'
compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:23.0.0'
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.1'
}
I found the solution, Problem started when I updated sdk, after that I used different buildToolsVersion ('22.0.1') and I was using different support library like compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.0', showing you in image below
This was raising problem of "android.widget.Material..."
Then I used same version for support library like compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:22.0.1' and its DONE. (Showing you in below screenshot)
You should compile your project with latest version so update & install from your SDK. Sync your project with sync project with Gradle file Button.
You can also continue with the existing version but check it installed properly below image indicate to API 22 that is properly installed.
And sync your project if needed.
it may help.
As pointed out by Tanis.7x, the support library version (23) does not match the targetSdkVersion (22)
You can fix this by doing the following:
In the build.grade file of your app module, change the following line of code
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.0'
To
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:22.+'
This will use the latest version of the appcompat version that is compatible with SdkVersion 22.
Your compile SDK version must match the support library major version. This is the solution to your problem. You can check it easily in your Gradle Scripts in build.gradle file.
Fx: if your compileSdkVersion is 23 your compile library must start at 23.
compileSdkVersion 23
buildToolsVersion "23.0.0"
defaultConfig {
minSdkVersion 15
targetSdkVersion 23
versionCode 340
versionName "3.4.0"
}
dependencies {
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.1.0'
compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:23.0.1'
}
And always check that your Android Studoi has the supported API Level. You can check it in your Android SDK, like this:
In my case it was an higher version of Google-play-services. I set them to 7.0.0 (not 8.x) and all was ok.
I wanted to downgrade from API 23 to 22 and got this error. I had to change all build.gradle files in a project in order to compile.
android {
compileSdkVersion 22
buildToolsVersion "22.0.1"
defaultConfig {
applicationId "com.yourapp.app"
minSdkVersion 14
targetSdkVersion 22
}
...
dependencies {
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:22.2.1'
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:22.2.1'
compile 'com.android.support:design:22.2.1'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:10.0.1'
}
This is what helped me: Adding specific android platform
What should be done is the following... In my case it was cordova but the same is relevant for ionic, phonegap and other frameworks like these:
list all platforms installed for your project: cordova platform list. You'll see something like this:
remove the android platform: cordova platform remove android.
then add the specific android platform: cordova platform add android#5.0.0.
Good luck! :)
I got the same problems. I solved my problem by updating gradle.build for each sub-module to latest compiler version.
Another solution :
navigate to
\sdk\extras\android\m2repository\com\android\support\appcompat-v7\23.x.x
open .aar file with 7-zip or winrar , in res folder remove values-23 folder and save changes .
on module: app (Gradle)
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
android {
compileSdkVersion 21
buildToolsVersion "21.1.2"
defaultConfig {
applicationId "com.namepack.nameappxxxxx"
minSdkVersion 16
targetSdkVersion 21
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
}
buildTypes {
release {
minifyEnabled false
proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
}
}
}
dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:21.0.3'
}
project: nameAppXXXX (Gradle)
buildscript {
repositories {
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.2.3'
}
}
allprojects {
repositories {
jcenter()
}
}
and edit your activity of AppCompatActivity to for example Activity:
package com.namepack.nameappxxxxx;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
public class NameClass extends ActionBarActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main_activity);
}
}
Everything is great but none of you explained where to download the SDK build tools
Make sure that all these are in upto date.
Upgrade Android Studio.
I had this issue with Android Studio 1.3.1 and none of the other answers worked for me, but after updating to 1.5.1 there were no problems.
If you are using phonegap(cross-platform) and got same issue above,
just remove the android platform using below command.
phonegap platform remove android
And add it again.
phonegap platform add android
Then problem solved for me.
If you are getting errors even after downloading the newest SDK and Android Studio, here is what I did:
Download the most recent SDK
Open file-Project structure (Ctrl + Alt + Shift + S)
In modules, select app
In the properties tab: Change compile SDK version to API 23 Android 6.0 marshmallow (latest)
I hope it helps someone so that he won't suffer like I did for these couple of days.
As others have already mentioned your compile sdk version must match your support library's major version. This is however, also relevant for subprojects should you have any.
In case you do, you can set your subprojects compile sdk versions with the following script:
subprojects { subproject ->
afterEvaluate{
if((subproject.plugins.hasPlugin('android') || subproject.plugins.hasPlugin('android-library'))) {
android {
compileSdkVersion rootProject.ext.compileSdkVersion
buildToolsVersion rootProject.ext.buildToolsVersion
}
}
}
}
Add this script in your root build.gradle file.
Failed to set up SDK: Error:Module 'app': platform 'Google Inc.:Google APIs:21' not found.
At a complete loss as to why this isn't working. Attempted to update my SDK to 23 but realized I wasn't prepared to deal with all the new deprecations, etc., so I reverted to an older version on Mercurial. I've done literally nothing else, and the reversion should have solved everything. Unfortunately, I'm stuck unable to connect my app and build it. I've even reinstalled Android Studio from scratch, but I continue to receive the same warning and my app won't build at all. What could possibly be going wrong?
Here is my build gradle:
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
android {
compileSdkVersion 'Google Inc.:Google APIs:21'
buildToolsVersion '21.1.2'
defaultConfig {

}
You can use compileSdkVersion 21 instead of yours .
android {
compileSdkVersion 21
buildToolsVersion '21.1.2'
defaultConfig {
applicationId "com.elgami.customizer"
minSdkVersion 14
targetSdkVersion 21

buildTypes {

}
}

The (currently accepted) answer that suggest replacing Google Inc.:Google APIs:21 with 21 is NOT suitable if you have some legacy app still using Google Map v1 (for example).
If you are in this situation you REALLY need to compile against Google Inc.:Google APIs:21 or 23 etc...
The solution here is to
Step 1
Open the old SDK manager interface clicking the Launch Standalone SDK Manager link below the Android Studio SDK Manager or by executing ${ANDROID_SDK_DIR}/tools/android sdk from command line to open it directly.
Then locate Google APIs for the SDK version you need and install it:
That package is hidden, for some reason, inside Android Studio and I expect Google will remove it at some point. Currently the SDK 24 one (Marshmallow) is available but the 25 (Nougat) is not, they may add it in the future, or not. We will have to wait and see.
If you are in this situation and Google decide to stop providing it you'll have to rewrite the functionality using maps v2.
Step 2
Even after doing this and cleaning + gradle resync you'll get this error From Android Studio:
Cannot find System Java Compiler. Ensure that you have installed a JDK (not just a JRE) and configured your JAVA_HOME system variable to point to the according directory.
But it will compile if you try to do it from the command line (./gradlew assembleDebug).
The reason has apparently something to do with the Android Studio embedded Java JRE.
To make it compile inside Android Studio open the Project Structure from Android Studio and provide a custom path for a JDK you installed on your system (you must install a OpenJDK / OracleJDK on your computer).
NOTE: it may be needed to navigate to the location instead of copying the path for Android studio to take the change. Do not pick the jre directory, pick the JDK (folder containing jre).
WARNING: this change is not specific to the project but will be applied to Android Studio itself and used on any other project.
When it failed for me I downloaded Google API's, just as #Daniel Segato explains, which is the right thing to do, and still I got the message once and again and again.
Until I did this. I opened the module's settings (Ctrl + Alt + Shift + S or File > Project Structure) and, for my module, I changed the Compile Sdk Version option to any other from the list. I resynchornized gradle and then changed the option back to Google APIs (API 23). And then it worked! It's really really really nasty of Android Studio not to recognize the SDK until you change it in that dialog box. But this only happened to me once. Other times it was enough just to download the proper Google API and there you go! But this is nasty.
my problem was in my build.gradle ! when I opened It was like this :
android {
compileSdkVersion 'Google Inc.:Google APIs:21'
buildToolsVersion "29.0.2"
defaultConfig {
applicationId "com.pixelnx.sam.allinone_room"
minSdkVersion 21
targetSdkVersion 21
How fixed it ?!
remove 'Google Inc.:Google APIs:21' and write 29 instead of it
2.set 29 for targetSdkVersion
RESULT :
android {
compileSdkVersion 29
buildToolsVersion "29.0.2"
defaultConfig {
applicationId "com.pixelnx.sam.allinone_room"
minSdkVersion 21
targetSdkVersion 29
