So I am stuck with Android 2.2 SDK :-(.
If it is an Android library project, you can definitely change the string. That's half of the point of *having* Android library projects -- so developers can modify resources as needed. In your project, override the library's string resource with one of your own with the same name, and it will be used. You do not have to modify the actual library project yourself. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Warescription: Three Android Books, Plus Updates, One Low Price! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
