How do make sure there is no conflict of “v7 appco

问题:

I have a android library with com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.1 dependency in the gradle.

Say any applicaion with different version com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.3.0is in the build.gradle of that application uses my library.

Below are the list of questions I have doubt.

1. which version does the android take? Lower one or Higher one? How do i see it?

2. Won't there be any conflict if i use different version like 24 or 25 and above or same?

3. How do i make sure there is no conflict of v7 appcompat when any app uses my library?

Gradle uses the higher one.
You can use the command gradlew dependencies to check the dependencies tree.

2. Won't there be any conflict if i use different version like 24 or 25 and above or same?

In general the best way to maintain a library and to avoid the conflicts is to update the library always with the latest support libraries.

What if the compiledSDK of application is 23 with appcompat-v7:23.3.0 and and that of the library is 24 with appcompat-v7:24+. Which all support libraries does the android take?

If your library uses support libraries v24, the library and the app will require to be compiled with the same level = 24.
