Subject: How to add string.xml for a different locale
Print | Individual message | Show original | Report this message | Find messages by this author

Hi,

I have seen some forums, skimmed through stackoverflow before posting here.
I need to know how I can add a string.xml file for a different language.
Android uses "es" to refer to english language. How can I use, say
"values-XX" and a String.xml file in it for reading values in my app? I
want that my app should use String.xml in "values-XX" throughout my app,
without removing the other "values..." folders. Any help is greatly
appreciated.

Thank you

Farhan

No it doesn't, it uses *en* (*EN*glish). *es* is for Spanish (*ES*pañol*).*
