before answering the question, keep in mind I have experience developing Android apps, I even know how to build an APK using Android SDK command line.
I want to build an utility that parses the layout file (.xml) and renders a preview. Summary: A layout previewer.
I've checked the source code of the isInEditMode() method, but it doesn't help, it only returns false
public boolean isInEditMode() { return false; } I can't simply display images, because the Android Studio layout editor renders the preview according to:
- The layout file
- The styles file
- The strings file (in case text uses a string resource)
- The
isInEditMode()method mentioned above - The .java file (for custom views)
The tools I'd need to use (e.g.: javac, aapt, aidl, dx, etc.) is not a problem for me.
At least I need to know where to start.
