Convert String containing an ID into an Integer-ID

Question

I have a short question:

How is it possible to convert a String, containing the Id of a Drawable, which is

String idString = \"R.drawable.bubblegum\"         


        

Answer 1

At least, I couldn't get a solution for this problem. It seems that there's no way to convert a String "R.id.mytext" into an integer like R.id.mytext that can be used in findViewById(R.id.myText).
