I'm trying to populate a list, and my question is how do you bind the list row with multiple items. So far I have: String[] homeLists = getResources().getStringArray(R.array.homeItems); setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, R.layout.home_item, R.id.homeItemName, homeLists)); home_item looks like this: <LinearLayout xmlns:an...

I was thinking about this earlier and figured I'd ask. If I made an application that has lots of resources, what would stop someone from extracting and adding/modifying the resources I ship with it?
