Note that this project uses two libraries:
1.Appocompat V4.02
2.DesignSupport V2.32

To check the "appcompat" version - I used another example (biometric) that I successfully compiled.
I suppose that in combination with the "DesignSupport" library, together they generate the above compilation error.
Any suggestions?

It's probably not a real bug, looks like a limitation of the whole concept. But I am not really sure. I had once a similiar problem. Problem was my designerscript, it became too large in size for compiling.
