Packaging Android resource files within a distributable Jar file

I am working on some reusable Android code that I would like to distribute to other developers for use within their own applications. The code has some resource dependencies (layouts, xml & png drawables) that I would like to be able to include and reference within a single package (Jar file).

Is this possible, and if so what is the best method to do this?

Just to confirm that unfortunately this is indeed the easiest method for now.

I attempted the same thing, and was really disappointed that I couldn't package everything in my jar. Is there an enhancement request on b.android.com for this? I'd like to star it up if there is but I can't seem to find anything requesting this feature on there.

People has been struggling with that for a very long time, so I believe google knows about that problem and its scople. I don't know if there is a change request reported, but even so, it would be a huge change. So, unfortunately, I don't think that goole is going to make such enhancement.
