Comment of a ResourceItem

[Jake Wharton]

Is it possible to get the documentation for a ResourceItem? I can't figure out how this is currently done and it's not obvious. I'm specifically looking to get the documentation for a string.

Also, are there plans to expose resource parsing helpers in the public API? Right now they are package scoped (specifically: ValueResourceParser).

Which one? We have 2 resourceItem classes. One that was used in ADT and a new one that is part of the Resource Merger.

Are you looking at higher level documentation (since the JavaDoc is there already)? I do need to write one.

Please do not send me questions directly. Thanks!

I'm using the resource merge one via a copied version of ValueResourceParser.

I haven't had more time to dig into the code (comments are probably just ignored), but I did notice this morning that the merged resources actually do not merge comments. I had thought comments were preserved which was what prompted this email.

If comments are not parsed here, how do they make it into the generated R?

In Gradle, the comments shouldn't make it into the R class actually. It's a bug we have to fix.
