When attempting to use the latest appcompat-v7 support library in my project, I get the following error:

I got the same error when I changed the Compile SDK version from API:21 to API:16. The problem was, appcompat version. If you need to use an older version of android API, so you have to change this appcompat version also. In my case (for API:16), I had to use appcompat-v7:19.+.

So I replace dependencies in build.gradle as follows,

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:19.+'
}

And make sure you have older versions of appcompat versions on your SDK
