Hi,
I am supporting search in my app, I'd like to display a unique hint in
the search box depending on what activity is being viewed. To that
end, I have a two different searchable.xml files in my xml folder:
searchable.xml
searchable_activity_foo.xml
When I reference searchable.xml, everything works as expected. The
second searchable xml file has the same contents as the first, but
this does not work:
<activity android:name=".Foo" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SEARCH" />
</intent-filter>
<meta-data android:name="android.app.searchable"
android:resource="@xml/searchable_activity_foo"/>
</activity>
Pressing the search key does not display the search box. If I just
reference the first searchable instead, it works fine:
<meta-data android:name="android.app.searchable"
android:resource="@xml/searchable"/>
Again, both have the same content. It looks like there is a dependency
on the name "searchable.xml" within android?
If we're not allowed to have searchables named anything but
searchable.xml, how do we specify different hint strings for different
activities? For example:
ActivityFoo = "Search for apples!"
ActivityGrok = "Search for oranges!"
Thanks
