I've created a set of handy xml parsers for the preferences file (R.xml.preferences) and created a class called PrefrencesHelper. This worked fine when the class was in the main project. But I want to share PrefrencesHelper as a library.
In the non-lib version, I instantiate the parser like this inside each PrefrencesHelper method: XmlResourceParser parser = getResources().getXml(R.xml.preferences); So there is always a fresh instance of the pull parser when I want to parse something out. But that's not going to work in a lib where the R class I want is in the main project. The local library R class won't contain R.xml.preferences. I see two options. Maybe you folks can help me think of a third, better way: 1) Instantiate a fresh parser in the main project whenever I call a PrefrencesHelper method and include that as one of the arguments. This is really messy and I want to avoid it at all costs. 2) Instantiate the parser once in the main project and pass it to the PrefrencesHelper constructor. But if I do this, I need to figure out a way to "rewind" the parser and make it start from the beginning of the file with each PrefrencesHelper method call. I haven't found any easy way to do that.
