android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException: String array resource ID #0x7f070002

Question

I\'m having problem getting a string array for strings.xml .

The error is:

android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException: String array resource ID         


        

Answer 1

Make sure you don't have variants of the values resources, with the string array defined only for a subset of the variants. For example:

values-v21/strings.xml - defined
values/strings.xml - not defined

If the resource is present in at least one variant, you get the entry in R and can refer to it in code, but the runtime resource file variant does not necessarily have the resource.
