I tried deleting the library from the SDK manager and download it again
I tried deleting the library and refreshing my project and deleting every line in the build path about android-support-v7-appcompat
I when I set up the bath again I import the library and then add it to my project path
still nothing work, I'm using ADT (Android Developer Tools) not Android Studio
Modify the project.properties
file, which has:
target=android-19
to
target=android-21
after changes above close project then open and clean
