old activities which inherit from AppcompatActivity work fine. but if I create new one ,it get the error . here is my gradle.build :
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
android {

defaultConfig {
applicationId "com.mkapp.apps.demo1"
minSdkVersion 10

// Or, if you prefer, you can continue to check for errors in release builds,

You have this issue because you are trying to use onCreate (Bundle savedInstanceState, PersistableBundle persistentState), but this method is available only from API level 21.
I am able to reproduce the issue with this sample code on Android 4.4:
public class TourActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState, new PersistableBundle());
}
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState, PersistableBundle persistentState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState, persistentState);
}
}
And the issue is resolved removing every occurrence of PersistableBundle
:
public class TourActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
}
}
Check where you use PersistableBundle
in your TourActivity
and remove it or update your answer with the code of your activity.
