Getting error message “Resource is not public”

Question

So I\'m trying to use the built-in drawable timepicker_up_btn for api level 7. It is in the actual res folder in the sdk, and I can use other resources from that folder. B

Answer 1

Is there any way to use not public android resources in my application?

You can reference them like this

android:drawable="@*android:drawable/pressed_application_background_static"

but it is not recommended, because private resources are likely to be renamed or removed in the future.
