error: Error: No resource found that matches the given name (at 'theme' with value '@android:style/ Theme.AppCompat').

Answer 1

Even i have come across for the same problem in my project, first update the SDK for available updates,once SDK is updated restart the eclipse, thats it ,working fine for me now

Answer 2

Ok found a way do it. .. I changed the v7-appcompat project's(in the workspace) target sdk version to latest version, then i right clicked the project closed it , and then opened it again , and the error was gone , strange but it worked.....

Answer 3

you need adding support v7 project as library project to your project or using Gradle to handle it .
