Or maybe I should put those files in a raw folder inside res? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group. To post to this group, send email to android-developers@googlegroups.com To unsu

No. There are preferences coming with apk. But I would avoid to include it to apk as reource file(s). It will give the flexibility when will send updates without recompile the apk. Thanks On Wed, Dec 10, 2008 at 10:44 PM, Mark Murphy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote: > > EvgenyV wrote: > > Can I install

On osx you select the process and click the "stop" button, and it appears to kill the process. I don't know if that simulates the kernel killing the process selectively though. On Dec 10, 1:35 pm, Cheryl Sedota <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Is there a way to tell the emulator to kill an activity
