What support library version should we use with targetSDK 28?

Question

I was going through this article , it says to update your project's compileSdkVersion and targetSdkVersion to API 28 . So I did but the support library gave error like support library should not use different version than compileSdk version

I tried updating it to 28.0.0 but its not working and says

Failed to resolve: com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0

I know it will still work with 27.1.1 but what is the correct version to use which won't give red underline ?

EDIT

build.gradle file

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

apply plugin: 'kotlin-android'

apply plugin: 'kotlin-android-extensions'

apply plugin: 'kotlin-kapt'   

android {
    compileSdkVersion 28
    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "in.eightfolds.safety"
        minSdkVersion 16
        targetSdkVersion 28
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
        testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
    dataBinding {
        enabled = true
    }
}

ext.support_version = '28.0.0'
ext.room_version = "1.1.1"
ext.lifecycle_version = "1.1.1"

dependencies {

    implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])

    implementation 'com.google.code.gson:gson:2.8.4'

Answer 1

I know this has already been answered but I needed to update mine today as well and neither of the links from the answers above actually told me what to put. So I had to use the following:

implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0-rc01'
implementation 'com.android.support:design:28.0.0-rc01'
implementation 'com.android.support:animated-vector-drawable:28.0.0-rc01'
implementation 'com.android.support:support-v4:28.0.0-rc01'
implementation 'com.android.support:support-media-compat:28.0.0-rc01'
implementation 'com.android.support:support-vector-drawable:28.0.0-rc01'

I hope this helps someone else looking for what to put there.

you can use Revision 28.0.0 Alpha 1 for android p but it is a preview version
