Strings

Strings

This is another XML file that contains all the text that your application uses. For ex- ample, the names of buttons, labels, default text, and similar types of strings go into this file. This is the best practice for separating the concerns of various files, even if they are XML files. In other words, layout XML is responsible for the layout of widgets, but strings XML is responsible for their textual content (see Example 3-3).

Example 3-3. res/values/strings.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <resources>     <string name="hello">Hello World, HelloWorld!</string>     <string name="app_name">Hello, World!!!</string> </resources>
