I have an AlertDialogue object called dialog. I am attempting to add an icon to it. I see that this syntax is now deprecated:
dialog.setIcon(getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.myImage);
I’m reading everywhere that this should work:
dialog.setIcon(ContextCompat.getDrawable(context, R.drawable.myImage));
However, the ContextCompat syntax is not being recognized by Android Studio. Is there something that I should be importing? Thank you.
***Update: Thank’s to @Sharj for the correct answer below. I made a quick video too if you guys need a visual: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eFiaO0srQro&feature=youtu.be
ContextCompat is part of support library v4. Have you added support library 4 to your project?
android.support.v4.content.ContextCompat
You can include support library to your build.gradle file under app folder if you haven’t already
dependencies {
// other stuff here
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:23.0.0'
// update the 23.0.0 to latest version available
}
Answer:
androidx.core.content.ContextCompat
from AndroidX dependency
implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.1.0'

I had the same issue and this and a few more posts helped me.
With Android studio you have multiple Gradle files.
I got my code to work by adding the dependencies section into Gradle (Module : Library) or the file that has “android {” …
dependencies {
// other stuff here
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:23.+'
// update the 23.0.0 to latest version available
}
Answer:
If you are using Android gradle plugin 3.0.1, add google() to your allProjects repositories in the build.gradle file (project level) then sync
like this:
allprojects {
repositories {
google()
....
//other repos
}
}
Answer:
Adding this to build.gradle(Module:App) under dependencies resolved the problem
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:23.0.0'
