Externalize strings for Android project

Question

Is there any Eclipse plugin that takes strings from code and puts them in strings.xml? I found \"Externalize strings\" function in Eclipse, but I don\'t know how to get it t

Answer 1

Use Refactor in Eclipse:

• highlight the string
• From the Eclipse menu select Refactor -> Android -> Extract Android String.

The string will be moved to strings.xml and the call to getContext().getString(R.string.my_string) generated.
