android-resources

I have a resource file called suggestions.xml which is translated to a couple of languages. These XML files contain just <string> values. Now, I'd like to retrieve all the strings in the current locale's suggestions.xml file. How do I do that? I know I can retrieve single strings by their ID's, but I'd like to get all the strings in the XML file instead. I wonder why would you need to do this. Still, you can use the generated R class to iterate over all kinds of resources. Field[] fields = R.string.class.getFields(); String[] stringNames = new String[fields.length]; for (int i = 0; i < fields

Got this really stupid problem: Can find the proper name for the android folder for WVGA800 resources. I've created a folder for WVGA854: drawable-normal-long-hdpi It worked totally fine. For WVGA800 I've tried 'drawable-normal-notlong-hdpi' - emulator and handset still gets resources from 'drawable', not even 'drawable-normal-long-hdpi'. Tried using 'drawble-hdpi', 'drawable-notlong-hdpi' - nothing works, it keeps using 'drawable' for resources. How should the folder for WVGA800 be named? UPD: Using supports-screens android:anyDensity="true" android:largeScreens="true" android:normalScreens=

I have a set of resource ids stored in an array. This is accessed inside the recycler view to populate an image view. The problem is when I access the array, all values returned is 0. // arrays.xml <array name="array_category_icons"> <item>@drawable/autumn</item> <item>@drawable/backpack</item> </array> // inside recycler view adapter int[] myIcons = getActivity().getResources().getIntArray(R.array.array_category_icons); myIcons[i] always returns 0. The drawables are in the hdpi folder only. Do this: TypedArray ta = getResources().obtainTypedArray(R.array.array_category_icons); Drawable[]

I keep coming back to this problem, since there doesn't seem to be a clean solution. Does anyone have a good strategy to exclude resources from a child project in Android? I have two scenarios: 1 - Base library project has localization files for en, es, etc. --Child project 1 uses all localizations, and everything is good --Child project 2 is only localized to English, but the final .apk would have a partial localization due to the parent resources (although ADT19 or so added Lint rules to warn/prevent you from doing this). The only solution I have to this right now is to have a separate
