android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException File res/drawable/$my_app_img__0.xml from color state list resource ID #0x7f07000a

Question

I have ImageView with app:srcCompat="@drawable/my_app_img"

I get:

android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException File res/drawable/$my_app_img__0.xml from color state list resource ID #0x7f07000a

on Android 6 and do not get it on 8 and above.

Here is the my_app_img.xml:

                android:type="linear" />
        </aapt:attr>
    </path>
</vector>

Also I use:

vectorDrawables.useSupportLibrary = true

Answer 1

I think the issue is related to the gradient present in the vector drawable. You have the <aapt:attr name="android:fillColor"> parameter set with a gradient there, and by looking into the documentation it seems that gradients are supported only from SDK 24+

Android vector drawable

android:fillColor

Specifies the color used to fill the path. May be a color or, for SDK 24+, a color state list or a gradient color

You could try without a gradient and see if it works.

Answer 2

I was using ImageView and replaced it by AppCompatImageView and fixed it so it can be compatible < 24
