Expected receiver of type, but got android.support.v7.widget.TintContextWrapper

Question

I have tried a lot to find solution. As Same Question found but It doesn't have answer what I want.

I have following XML File:

<LinearLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:id="@+id/add_appointment_parent_layout"
    tools:context="com.potionowl.app.activity.AppointmentAddActivity">

    <include layout="@layout/layout_toolbar"/>

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:orientation="vertical"
        android:padding="@dimen/padding_small"
        android:layout_margin="@dimen/padding_medium"

        <android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatSpinner
            android:id="@+id/add_appointment_doctor_spinner"

            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="@string/apply_for_appointment"/>
    </LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>

I am getting Errors like:

I don't know why it happens. Is there any solution? Thank you.

This is related to the way AppCompat inflates your layout. Try adding a programmatic onClick listener to your buttons rather than doing it within XML.

There's a discussion about it on Google Code. It's because you are using the AppCompat Buttons.
