In my app, I'd like to define some static resources in an xml file which can be accessed via a HashMap. I know I can do this at run time in a manner similar to the one which is described here:
http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/6232ee60944890e8/895415654ccbc21f?lnk=gst&q=hashmap+resources#msg_895415654ccbc21f However, since my HashMap will be a non-changing resource, I'd like to precompile my xml into a static HashMap in a manner that is similar to how the aapt utility precomplies the data in various xml files into R.java. Furthermore, I'd like the keys and values to be expandable via the "@+id/item" convention, as follows ... Suppose the following items exist in strings.xml: <string name="string0">foo</string> <string name="string1">bar</string> <string name="string2">quack</string> <string name="string3">oink</string> Then, I would like to be able to do something like this in order to specify my static HashMap: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <map name="mymap"> <element name="@+id/string0">foo-item</element> <element name="abc">@+id/string1</element> <element name="@+id/string2">@+id/string3</element> </map> The resulting generated code in R.java would look something like this: public static final class map { public static final Map<String , String> mymap = new ConcurrentHashMap<String , String>() {{ put("foo", "foo-item"); put("abc", "bar"); put("quack", "oink"); }}; } Is there a way to do anything even remotely similar to this under Android, perhaps using aadb? Or am I out of luck? Thanks in advance. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
