I’m trying to make custom Notifications in Android, following that link :
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/notifiers/notifications.html

This tutorial explain that we need two files for styling notification : values/styles.xml and values-v9/styles.xml.
(I develope on api level 7)

The second file must contain things like 

<style name="NotificationText" parent="android:TextAppearance.StatusBar.EventContent" />

But with this, eclipse doesn’t allow me to compile : “Error retrieving parent for item : no ressource that matches the given name ‘android:…’ “

Everythings is okay when I changed the API level to 9.

Did I missed something in Android multi-version programming ?

    You need to target API level 9 but set the minimum API level to 7.

    <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="7" 
      android:targetSdkVersion="9" />
