add/delete/modify values in "default.properties"

Question

Hi,

How can I add/delete/modify values in "default.properties" for Android.

Any examples?

Thanks, Sana.

Answer 1

Why do you want to modify those values? If you're trying to change what version of the API you're building against, that can be done in the "android" section of the project properties in Eclipse...

I use a text editor.

This answer was probably obvious to you, suggesting that your real question is not the one I quoted above, but rather something else you did not include here. If you find that your StackOverflow question is less than, say, 150 words, your question is probably too short. Give us more context, such as what you are trying to achieve.

Hi, what i read from your comment is that you want to check if an Application was run for the first time.

Use Android preferences for that:

Check if some value occurs in SharedPreferences

    SharedPreferences prefs = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this);
    int value = prefs.getInt("FirstRun"), -1); 

If it first run do what you want:

if(value == -1){
  // do sth
  SharedPreferences.Editor editor = prefs.edit();
  editor.putInt("FirstRun", 1);
  editor.commit();
 }
