This is a follow up question to this question:
I also updated the support library to 23.2 and started getting the error:
XmlPullParserException Binary XML file line #17<vector> tag requires viewportWidth > 0
That question solved it for Android Studio and Gradle. How can this be solved when using Eclipse without Gradle?
If the issue is in release app version. This solved for my release. I think because if you put
shrinkResources true
the drawable folders created does not have the drawable files.For new users only, this problem is fixed in:
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.2.1'
For people like me still using Eclipse without Gradle, I had this error with Android Support Library r23.2.0 running on pre-Lollipop devices (API < 21).
This issue has been fixed in r23.2.1 and I have been able to run my project on API level 16 successfully.
This version of the library for Eclipse is not available through SDK Manager anymore, however you can manually download it from this link.
I got this same error in Android Studio 2.2 after I updated my Gradle dependencies to the latest versions but forgot to update the buildToolsVersion of my project.
I changed:
to:
While buildToolsVersion remained at "22.0.1" like so:
So all I did was to update the buildToolsVersion to
24
like so:since it has previously been downloaded with SDK Manager. So check the latest
buildToolsVersion
from SDK Manager and see if it matches the dependencies version.Hope this helps someone.
A previous answer to this question had a solution for developers who use Gradle, but I don't use Gradle so I want to summarize his answer which helped several people and what I eventually did. I accepted my own answer and not his since like I said, I don't use Gradle so I did not use what he wrote.
I did several things for it to work in the end. Possible solutions are:
First for Gradle users:
1) Revert the support library to an older version, since this one has a bug.
2) use compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.2.1' as the bug was fixed there.
3) for Gradle Plugin 2.0:
Or you can use Grade Build Tools 1.5.0 (
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.5.0'
)// no need for this with Gradle 2.0
This is the part for non Gradle users:
1) Open SDK manager.
2) Uninstalled both "Android Wear X" (where X is ARM or Intel) from APIs 22 and 23.
3) I then still had a compilation error in one of the styles of the AppCompat library. I simply commented them out (I'll risk the very specific device not working if it uses that very specific style).
After that I cleaned the project and it just started to work.
Event after trying the already provided answers, the app was crashing on some devices (mainly Samsung). So along with that, I tried loading vector drawables like this
This
AppCompatDrawableManager
internally tries to fetch drawable with various methods:Thus it works on all android versions and all devices (hopefully).
Note: Don't try to use Picasso(2.5.2)'s or Glide(3.7.0)'s method to load vector drawables. Because they internally use deprecated
getDrawable(@DrawableRes int id)
method. Which will result inResources.NotFoundException
on some devices.
