title: SwitchCompat throwing error
body: <p>I am trying to use switchcompat in my fragment. The min supported API is 14 and max is 21. I am trying to apply the material view to switch for all pre lollipop android versions. But when use the below code I get an error:
  How can I correct it?</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;android.support.v7.widget.SwitchCompat
      android:layout_width="wrap_content"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content" /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Inflating in java code which is throwing the exception:</p>
  
  <pre><code> @Override                                                                                       
   public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,                          
                            Bundle savedInstanceState) {                                           
       final View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_scheduler_ui, container, false);   
  </code></pre>
