[android-developers] Creating data files as compiled (binary) xml
I am developing a tablet application where I want my data files to be stored as compiled xml. The application will not, itself, be creating these files. These files will be added at a later stage - the user will be able to purchase them separately. So, my question is, how can I create the compiled xml in a format which I can then read within my application ? Is this even possible, or will I need to create my own compiler ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

If you are referring to the binary XML format created by the build process for XML resources, you would have to root around in the source code to find both the compiler and their version of the XmlPullParser that reads it in, and modify those to suit your needs. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android Training in DC: http://marakana.com/training/android/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Hi Mark, Why - to create my data files - sheet music data - and distribute them in a fairly protected manner. Yes, I am indeed referring to the xml binary format used by the build process.
