I am a newbee in the Android development. I am able to make this app work in Android 5.1 and but however when I tried to deploy this app in Android 4.1 it used to crash in the main activity itself. I understood its becuase I used vector images and android 4.1 is not compatible with it. To overcome this I set the code as mentioned below:
// Gradle Plugin 2.0+
android {
defaultConfig {
vectorDrawables.useSupportLibrary = true
}
}
You’ll note this new attribute only exists in the version 2.0 of the Gradle Plugin. If you are using Gradle 1.5 you’ll instead use
// Gradle Plugin 1.5
android {
defaultConfig {
generatedDensities = []
}
// This is handled for you by the 2.0+ Gradle Plugin
aaptOptions {
additionalParameters "--no-version-vectors"
}
}
I am getting this error now
