Solution 1

The problem is solved when it fixes the problems in javacompiler. this problem occurs when there are any errors in your java code. The reason for the error is shown under the Javacompiler tab shown in the screenshot. Find the source of the error in the messages under the javaCompiler tab. screen shot

Solution 2

You have just deleted the codes that related to the floating action button under the MainActivity.java.

 FloatingActionButton fab = (FloatingActionButton) findViewById(R.id.fab);
    fab.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
            Snackbar.make(view, "Replace with your own action", Snackbar.LENGTH_LONG)
                    .setAction("Action", null).show();

Delete these selected codes and run the Program

Have you tried Clean Project?

[M D P]

add buildToolsVersion '27.0.3' under compileSdkVersion and see if it works. also try Rebuild Project

[Yusuf Koçak]

sory not working

[samus]

I would make a separate, empty test project from scratch with the same compile/min/target and build tools versions, and then add your libraries one by one until the build fails.

[samus]

com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:22.2.0 should match the compile version (27.1.0), just as appcompat does. Also, mixing versions of support libraries can lead to runtime crashes.

@YusufKoçak: did you find solution to this ? I am facing same issue

[bv akhil]

No sense to what you are saying buddy

[bv akhil]

The link is not working and I didn't understand what "The problem is solved when it fixes the problems in javacompiler" this line mean.

Accepted answer is too vague
