Android appcompat v7:23

Question

Today, Google released SDK 6 API 23+.

I tried to create a project with the API 23, but I'm having the following problem:

Failed to resolve: com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0

Here's my gradle file:

android {
    compileSdkVersion 23
    buildToolsVersion "23.0.0"

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "my.package"
        minSdkVersion 17
        targetSdkVersion 23
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    wearApp project(':wear')
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0'
    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:7.8.0'
}

In the SDK manager, the version 23 isn't listed to update:

How can I solve this?

You should wait for a few more hours or days.. – Sheychan Aug 18 '15 at 02:10 — Sheychan, Aug 18 '15 at 02:10

Original answer:

I too tried to change the support library to "23". When I changed the targetSdkVersion to 23, Android Studio reported the following error:

This support library should not use a lower version (22) than the targetSdkVersion (23)

I simply changed:

compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.0'

to

compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:+'

Although this fixed my issue, you should not use dynamic versions. After a few hours the new support repository was available and it is currently 23.0.1.

Pro tip:

You can use double quotes and create a ${supportLibVersion} variable for simplicity. Example:

ext {
    supportLibVersion = '23.1.1'
}

compile "com.android.support:appcompat-v7:${supportLibVersion}"
compile "com.android.support:design:${supportLibVersion}"
compile "com.android.support:palette-v7:${supportLibVersion}"
compile "com.android.support:customtabs:${supportLibVersion}"
compile "com.android.support:gridlayout-v7:${supportLibVersion}"

try this `compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.0' ` and do not forget to download the udpate (just available) ;) — Piotr, Aug 19 '15 at 14:35

As seen in the revision column of the Android SDK Manager, the latest published version of the Support Library is 22.2.1. You'll have to wait until 23.0.0 is published.

Edit: API 23 is already published. So u can use 23.0.0

This is constantly going to be outdated. Is there a link that shows the most current version? – Bryan Bryce Jul 12 '16 at 21:26

The [Support Library Revision History page](https://developer.android.com/topic/libraries/support-library/revisions.html) always tells you the latest version. – ianhanniballake Jul 12 '16 at 21:38

First you need to download the latest support repository (17 by the time I write this) from internal SDK manager of Android Studio or from the stand alone SDK manager. Then you can add compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.0' or any other support library you want to your build.gradle file. (Don't forget the last .0)

Latest published version of the Support Library is 24.1.1, So you can use it like this,

compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:24.1.1'
compile 'com.android.support:design:24.1.1'

Same as for other support components.
