android:text="@string/hello" /> String string = getString (R. string. hello); You can use either getString(int) or getText(int) to retrieve a string.
A string resource provides text strings for your application with optional text styling and formatting. There are three types of resources that can provide your application with strings: String. XML resource that provides a single string. String Array.
In Android Studio while adding TextView to the layout xml file, it is very convenient to use "Extract String Resource" to add string name to strings.
A class does not have a context and to use a string resource a context is needed. So just call the class from an activity and give a parameter context and within your class constructor just use that context to get the string resource.
In your custom class you need to import the R namespace for the project to get the resource Id.
import com.myrandomapp.R; Then to get the actual string
context.getString(R.string.COOL_STRING) If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
