Error:(9, 5) error: resource android:attr/dialogCornerRadius not found

Question

So I installed android studio 3.0.1 and as soon as it opened the gradle built and showed the following errors. I tried adding dependencies such as design and support but in

Answer 1

This error occurs because of mismatched compileSdkVersion and library version.

for example:

compileSdkVersion 27
implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.1.0'
implementation 'com.android.support:design:26.1.0'

and also avoid to use + sign with library as in the following:

implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.+'

use exact library version like this

implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.1.0'

Using + sign with the library makes it difficult for the building process to gather the exact version that is required, making system unstable, hence should be discouraged.

Answer 2

Maybe it's too late but i found a solution:

You have to edit in the build.gradle either the compileSdkVersion --> to lastest (now it is 28). Like that:

android {
compileSdkVersion 28
defaultConfig {
    applicationId "NAME_OF_YOUR_PROJECT_DIRECTORY"
    minSdkVersion 21
    targetSdkVersion 28
    versionCode 1
    versionName "1.0"
    testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
}

or you can change the version of implementation:

dependencies {
    implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    api 'com.android.support:design:27.+'
    implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:27.1.1'
    implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.1.2'
    testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
    androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test:runner:1.0.2'
    androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.0.2'
}

Answer 3

If you are migrated for AndroidX and getting this error, you need to set the compile SDK to Android 9.0 (API level 28) or higher

Answer 4

This Is Because compileSdkVersion , buildToolsVersion and Dependecies implementations are not match You Have to done like this i have 28 library then

compileSdkVersion 28
targetSdkVersion   28
buildToolsVersion  28.0.3
implementation 'com.android.support:design:28.0.0'
implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0'

If we You Use Any where less than 28 this error should occured so please try match library in all.

Answer 5

Found a neat plugin to solve this: cordova-android-support-gradle-release

cordova plugin add cordova-android-support-gradle-release --variable ANDROID_SUPPORT_VERSION=27.+ --save

Answer 6

In my case, this error ocurred while i was using the

implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:+'
implementation 'com.android.support:design:+'

libraries together with googles

implementation 'com.google.android.material:material-components:+'

library. If this is the case in your project, i highly recommend to fully remove the google material components library from your project.
