Hi all,

I am a beginner in Android. I have a little bit trouble understanding
the Snake example code.

In the Snake example code, they create a SnakeView class, which
extends View. This is understandable because they want to create a
custom view. But what confuses me is what they did in the layout xml
file.

Inside the layout xml file, this is what they did:

<com.example.android.snake.SnakeView
         android:id="@+id/snake"
                android:layout_width="fill_parent"
                android:layout_height="fill_parent"
                tileSize="24"
                />

I understand that "android:layout_width" and "android:layout_height"
attributes are inherited from View class. However, I don't understand
how they can add the "tileSize" attribute in the XML file. I don't see
it anywhere within the SnakeView class. Can any one helps me with
this?

Thanks in advance
Stanley
