I recently migrated a project into Android Studio 0.4.3. When compiling, it gave me errors on several lines of java, including the following:
FragmentManager fm = getFragmentManager();
fm.findFragmentById()
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
getResources().getStringArray(R.array.course_descriptions);
I see the following error message:
Call requires API level 11 (current min is 7)
I'm running Android Studio .0.4.3. I also downloaded Android 4.4.2 (API 19) through the SDK manager.
I added the following line to my manifest:
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="14"
android:targetSdkVersion="19" />
I did a "Sync Project with Gradle files", cleaned and rebuilt the project. I still see the same errors.
How do I fix this issue ?
Step 1: Open your project in Android mode then go to Gradle Scripts > build. gradle(Module: app) as shown in the following image. Step 2: Refer to the below image and here you have to change the minSdkVersion and targetSdkVersion as per the requirement.
android:minSdkVersion — Specifies the minimum API Level on which the application is able to run. The default value is "1".
For more information about downloading and installing Android SDK components, see Android SDK Setup. Beginning in August 2021, the Google Play Console requires that new apps target API level 30 (Android 11.0) or higher. Existing apps are required to target API level 30 or higher beginning in November 2021.
I have 0.8.6 version and it's can be done like this:
In the menu: File -> Project Structure.
In the open menu, navigate to app
, then in the tabs choose Flavors
.
If you have generated your project on recent versions of Android Studio, the setting is in gradle config file. Find build.gradle
file in your application module. There should be something like this.
defaultConfig {
minSdkVersion 7
targetSdkVersion 19
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
}
Starting from gradle build system all your setting related to sdk and compilation APIs will be overridden by what you define in your build.gradle
file.
So going forward if you want you can remove these all configurations from your AndroidManifest.xml
and keep them in build.gradle
files only to avoid confusions.
So check minSdkVersion
in module's build.gradle
file which is throwing the error.
android {
compileSdkVersion 19
buildToolsVersion '19.0.1'
defaultConfig {
minSdkVersion 7 // Change 7 to 11 will solve your problem
targetSdkVersion 19
}
}
I prefer to have these all configurations in my top project level build.gradle
file because if the configurations are different in different modules you will be ended up with Manifest Merging error.
