Android Question Appcompat and B4A9.9 issue?

[tsteward]

I use appcompat inside my app which now give an error when compiling. This only seems to have happened since B4A9.9
Even the attached sample from the Appcompat thread here will not compile.

What have I missed?

It gives this error.

You are using an old Android SDK.

Carefully follow these instructions: https://www.b4x.com/b4a.html
