Android 使用SwitchCompat 遇到奇怪的崩溃问题

 

  想把一个老项目里把老掉牙的checkBox 换成原生的SwithCompat，布局如下：

  

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:gravity="center"
    tools:context="com.dhl.switchcompatdemo.MainActivity">

    <android.support.v7.widget.SwitchCompat
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
    <android.support.v7.widget.SwitchCompat
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
    <android.support.v7.widget.SwitchCompat
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
    <android.support.v7.widget.SwitchCompat
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
    <android.support.v7.widget.SwitchCompat
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" />



</LinearLayout>

很简单的一个布局，但是运行起来，却崩溃！？？？

崩溃如下：

 真是莫名其妙，这到底是为何呢？

 原来这个老项目的Activity 的主题引用竟然是：

  android:theme="@android:style/Theme.DeviceDefault.DialogWhenLarge"

但是这个SwitchCompat 是V7 包才有的，所以引用的主题必须是 Theme.AppCompat 的子类才行，修改如下：

android:theme="@style/AppTheme"

解决。
