You have to import support-v7-appcompat library from android-sdks\extras\android\support\v7\appcompat.

Create an android library project in eclipse for design support library and put the contents of directory android-sdks\extras\android\support\design in the design support library project Link appcompat-v7 library to design support library project Link support library project from your project. You can not use directly the jar android-support-design.jar because you need some resources too (this is the reason of aar format).

i have done like this... but still i am getting same error – javed Nov 30 '15 at 06:51 — javed, Nov 30 '15 at 06:51
