Stop working project with vector drawables after update build.gradle on API < 21

Viewed 1540

I have working project.

  • minSdkVersion 17
  • com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.3.3
  • gradle 4.1
  • Android Studio 3 Canary 6

I have in my gradle files:

defaultConfig {
        vectorDrawables.useSupportLibrary = true
        vectorDrawables.generatedDensities = []
}

I call in activity too:

AppCompatDelegate.setCompatVectorFromResourcesEnabled(true)

Application works perfectly. Now change to:

  • com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.0.0-alpha6
  • add to repositories google() line

Execute gradle clean assembleDebug.

App continue works on devices with API > 20. But for API < 21 (google android emulator) get crash on start application. I see in logcat error: Resources$NotFoundException: Resource ID #0x7f080058 (0x7f080058 is drawable abc_vector_test).

Why?

UPD 2017-07-19: It was fixed and released in com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.0.0-alpha7
