Hey, In the guide below, I see that string resources are being used as keys for getting and setting shared preferences: http://developer.android.com/training/basics/data-storage/shared-preferences.html
However, since the keys are not going to be presented in any way to the UI, and I wouldn't want them to change if the user changed the locale, I see no reason to store them as string resources. I think that using constant class is a better solution in this case. This stackoverflow thread reinforces my position: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25428064/where-to-store-string-valuesin-strings-xml-or-in-constants-class Do you have any reason why I would want the shared preferences key to be a resource string? Thank you, Haim Litvak. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
