Android Resources converting to string TypedValue warning

Question

Ok I\'m looking right past something here..

Every time I\'m in my app and I change activities, logcat reports series of warnings:

02-04 14:42:36.524:         


        

Answer 1

I've discovered that this warning is also outputted when specifying a plurals string from a widget that requires parameters.

For instance:

    %d song in playlist
    %d songs in playlist

The warning will appear when inflating an activity that contains a widget referencing it:

You no doubt replace the string after inflating the views to set the correct parameters, e.g.:

playlistSongCount.setText(
        getResources().getQuantityString(
            R.plurals.song_count,
            songCount,
            songCount));

The obvious solution here is to remove the android:text attribute from the layout as it has no purpose.
