# Titanium.Android.R
The Titanium binding of the native Android R
class, giving access to
Android system-wide resources or application resources.
# Overview
To access system-wide resources your application's resources, use Titanium.Android.R. To access your application's resources, use Titanium.App.Android.R.
These properties and sub-properties correspond directly to the properties
of the the android.R
class, and should have the same syntax.
To retrieve the "OK" string from system resources in Android:
Ti.Android.currentActivity.getString(Ti.Android.R.string.ok);
If the file platform/android/res/drawable/icon.png
exists in the
project, it can be accessed using its resource name, as follows:
var resid = Titanium.App.Android.R.drawable.icon;
See also: android.R (opens new window) in the Android Developer Reference. For more information, refer to the official documentation on the Android Developer website about accessing application resources (opens new window).
Starting in Titanium SDK 7.3.0, this API exposes all Android related R classes
for the usage in Hyperloop. For example, it can be used to access menu
resources
as part of native user interfaces, e.g. BottomNavigationView
or RecyclerView
.
See an example in the Hyperloop Sample App (opens new window) for details!
# Properties
# animator READONLY
Animator resources. See R.animator in the Android Developer Reference.
# apiName READONLY
The name of the API that this proxy corresponds to.
The value of this property is the fully qualified name of the API. For example, Titanium.UI.Button
returns Ti.UI.Button
.
# bubbleParent
Indicates if the proxy will bubble an event to its parent.
Some proxies (most commonly views) have a relationship to other proxies, often established by the add() method. For example, for a button added to a window, a click event on the button would bubble up to the window. Other common parents are table sections to their rows, table views to their sections, and scrollable views to their views. Set this property to false to disable the bubbling to the proxy's parent.
Default: true
# dimen READONLY
Dimension resources. See https://developer.android.com/reference/android/R.dimen.html in the Android Developer Reference.
# drawable READONLY
Drawable resources. See R.drawable in the Android Developer Reference.
# fraction READONLY
Fraction resources. See R.fraction in the Android Developer Reference.
# integer READONLY
Integer resources. See R.integer in the Android Developer Reference.
# interpolator READONLY
Interpolator resources. See R.fraction in the Android Developer Reference.
# lifecycleContainer
The Window or TabGroup whose Activity lifecycle should be triggered on the proxy.
If this property is set to a Window or TabGroup, then the corresponding Activity lifecycle event callbacks will also be called on the proxy. Proxies that require the activity lifecycle will need this property set to the appropriate containing Window or TabGroup.
# plurals READONLY
Plurals resources. See R.plurals in the Android Developer Reference.
# styleable READONLY
Styleable resources. See R.styleable in the Android Developer Reference.
# transition READONLY
Transition resources. See R.transition in the Android Developer Reference.
# Methods
# addEventListener
Adds the specified callback as an event listener for the named event.
Parameters
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
name | String | Name of the event. |
callback | Callback<Titanium.Event> | Callback function to invoke when the event is fired. |
Returns
- Type
- void
# applyProperties
Applies the properties to the proxy.
Properties are supplied as a dictionary. Each key-value pair in the object is applied to the proxy such that myproxy[key] = value.
Parameters
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
props | Dictionary | A dictionary of properties to apply. |
Returns
- Type
- void
# fireEvent
Fires a synthesized event to any registered listeners.
Parameters
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
name | String | Name of the event. |
event | Dictionary | A dictionary of keys and values to add to the Titanium.Event object sent to the listeners. |
Returns
- Type
- void
# removeEventListener
Removes the specified callback as an event listener for the named event.
Multiple listeners can be registered for the same event, so the
callback
parameter is used to determine which listener to remove.
When adding a listener, you must save a reference to the callback function in order to remove the listener later:
var listener = function() { Ti.API.info("Event listener called."); }
window.addEventListener('click', listener);
To remove the listener, pass in a reference to the callback function:
window.removeEventListener('click', listener);
Parameters
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
name | String | Name of the event. |
callback | Callback<Titanium.Event> | Callback function to remove. Must be the same function passed to |
Returns
- Type
- void
