Android XML. What is the purpose of the star in the ID string?
- by alex2k8
In some sources I see such declarations
<item
android:id="@+id/menu_display_groups"
android:icon="@*android:drawable/ic_menu_allfriends"
android:title="@string/menu_displayGroup" />
Notice the *
@*android:
It seems to give access to internal resources. But would like to know for sure.
Also curious, if it is safe to build application with such declarations using Android 2.2 SDK, and run it on 1.5.
