MaterialCardView crashes with material:1.1.0

Question

I am using MaterialCardView as my cardview layout. Now, Android-studio started showing me that instead of current implementation "com.google.android.material:material:1.0.0", I should update to 1.1.0

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"     xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"     android:id="@+id/edit_name"     android:layout_width="wrap_content"     android:layout_height="wrap_content"     android:layout_gravity="center"     android:orientation="vertical"     android:layout_margin="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin">    <com.google.android.material.card.MaterialCardView       android:layout_width="match_parent"       android:layout_height="wrap_content"       app:cardCornerRadius="8dp"       app:cardElevation="8dp">        <...more layout> </com.google.android.material.card.MaterialCardView> </LinearLayout> 

with 1.1.0, I am getting crash Error inflating class com.google.android.material.card.MaterialCardView

So, I have 3 cases:

1. stick to 1.0.0 and use MaterialCardView (working, but not preferred)
2. Update to 1.1.0 (or 1.2.0-alpha) and use androidx.CardView (working, but not preferred)
3. Update to 1.1.0 and change the MaterialCardView (preferred, but not working)

Since I want to go with option #3, and I don't have any solution, can anybody give a clue?

Update My style (I have style & style-night also. Here I am posting the style only):

<resources>    <!-- Base application theme. -->   <style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.DayNight">     <!-- Customize your theme here. -->     <item name="colorPrimary">@color/colorPrimary</item>     <item name="colorPrimaryDark">@color/colorPrimaryDark</item>     <item name="colorAccent">@color/colorAccent</item>   </style>    <style name="AppTheme.NoActionBar">     <item name="windowActionBar">false</item>     <item name="windowNoTitle">true</item>   </style>    <style name="AppTheme.AppBarOverlay" parent="ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar" />    <style name="ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.navTheme">     <!-- Color of text and icon when SELECTED -->     <item name="colorPrimary">#ffffff</item>     <!-- Background color when SELECTED -->     <item name="colorControlHighlight">@color/colorPrimary</item>    </style>  </resources> 

And here is the error(from Logcat)

Answer 1

you can just keep it in your materialcardview itself also:

 <com.google.android.material.card.MaterialCardView       android:layout_width="match_parent"       android:layout_height="wrap_content"       app:cardCornerRadius="8dp"      **** android:theme="@style/Theme.MaterialComponents.Light"  *****       app:cardElevation="8dp">
