[android-developers] Re: Listing all top level elements in strings.xml

Hi Kris,

Thanks for replying. The reason I want to do this is because there is
a pre-build step in which strings.xml is itself generated by another
script and I want Java code to iterate through all strings in this
xml. Perhaps as Kostya suggested I can use reflection, but I haven't
tried it yet.
