What version of recyclerview should I use in dependecies?

I want to include recyclerview in my application , I've updated the whole sdk . The android support repository is version 17 ,android support library is version 23 . I've recyclerview folder in sdk\extras\android\support\v7 directory .

For adding the library , I've put these in dependencies :

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:21.0.0.+'
}

when I rebuild the project ,it shows me this error :

   Error:(24, 13) Failed to resolve: com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:21.0.0.+
<a href="install.m2.repo">Install Repository and sync project</a><br><a href="openFile">Show in File</a><br><a href="open.dependency.in.project.structure">Show in Project Structure dialog</a>

What version of recyclerview should I use in dependencies ? How to know it?

EDIT I solve the last problem with the help of a friend , this is the new gradle :

    dependencies {
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:21.0.0'
}

Now I get this error :

 F:\AndroidStudioProjects\recycleView\app\build\intermediates\exploded-aar\com.android.support\appcompat-v7\23.0.0\res\values-v17\values-v17.xml
Error:(6, 21) No resource found that matches the given name: attr 'android:textAlignment'.
Error:(10, 21) No resource found that matches the given name: attr 'android:paddingEnd'...............

How to solve this one ?

You have this issue becuase 

compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:21.0.0.+'

is wrong.

You can use

compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:21.0.0'
compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:21.0.+'
compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:21.+'
compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:+'

But you can't use

compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:21.0.0.+'

Of course I suggest you using the last support library, currently the 23.1.0

compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:23.1.0'

Pay attention. This requires to compile with API 23.

Also I suggest you avoiding the +. It is not a good choice because in this way you can't replicate your build in the future.

Better to use the latest dependency supported by android to get the latest feature and fixes provided by Android. To add a dependency follow the steps mentioned below :

  • Right click on your app module in project explorer.

  • Select "Module Settings" from the option menu.

  • Click on the "Dependency" tab.

  • Click the "+" or "-" button to add or remove dependency.

  • Click on + and search for dependency by giving it's name and click on the appropriate dependency.

This way you will get the latest dependecy supported by android.
