android More Resource Types

>This page defines more types of resources you can externalize, including:Bool,Color,Dimension,ID,Integer,Integer Array,Typed Array

XML file saved at res/values-small/bools.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <bool name="screen_small">true</bool>
    <bool name="adjust_view_bounds">true</bool>
</resources>
This application code retrieves the boolean:
Resources res = getResources();
boolean screenIsSmall = res.getBoolean(R.bool.screen_small);

> EXAMPLE:

XML file saved at  res/values/dimens.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <dimen name="textview_height">25dp</dimen>
    <dimen name="textview_width">150dp</dimen>
    <dimen name="ball_radius">30dp</dimen>
    <dimen name="font_size">16sp</dimen>
</resources>

This application code retrieves a dimension:

Resources res = getResources();
float fontSize = res.getDimension(R.dimen.font_size);

This layout XML applies dimensions to attributes:

<TextView
    android:layout_height="@dimen/textview_height"
    android:layout_width="@dimen/textview_width"
    android:textSize="@dimen/font_size"/>

>  EXAMPLE:

XML file saved at  res/values/integers.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <integer-array name="bits">
        <item>4</item>
        <item>8</item>
        <item>16</item>
        <item>32</item>
    </integer-array>
</resources>

This application code retrieves the integer array:

Resources res = getResources();
int[] bits = res.getIntArray(R.array.bits);

>

EXAMPLE:

XML file saved at  res/values/arrays.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <array name="icons">
        <item>@drawable/home</item>
        <item>@drawable/settings</item>
        <item>@drawable/logout</item>
    </array>
    <array name="colors">
        <item>#FFFF0000</item>
        <item>#FF00FF00</item>
        <item>#FF0000FF</item>
    </array>
</resources>

This application code retrieves each array and then obtains the first entry in each array:

Resources res = getResources();
TypedArray icons = res.obtainTypedArray(R.array.icons);
Drawable drawable = icons.getDrawable(0);

TypedArray colors = res.obtainTypedArray(R.array.colors);
int color = colors.getColor(0,0);
