Android resValue gradle 错误：“generated.xml”中不支持类型“String”

resValue gradle error: Unsupported type "String" in "generated.xml"

提问by owe

A few weeks ago I posted a question How to override resources depending on buildType. And just yesterday there was a gradle plugin release for android. Based on this post on G+I decided to write this question.

几周前，我发布了一个问题如何根据 buildType 覆盖资源。就在昨天，android 发布了一个gradle 插件。基于这篇关于 G+ 的帖子，我决定写这个问题。

The problem I have described in detail:

我详细描述的问题：

I want to create some resource values depending on the buildType, but this doesn't work properly: The file "generated.xml" will be only created if I make a complete build over the command line:

我想根据 . 创建一些资源值buildType，但这不能正常工作：只有在我通过命令行进行完整构建时，才会创建文件“generated.xml”：

gradlew build

But I also get an error by building the complete project over comannd line:

但是我也通过在命令线上构建完整的项目来得到一个错误：

* What went wrong: Execution failed for task ':app:merge<buildVariant>Resources'.
Unsupported type 'String' in file C:\Users\...\build\res\generated\release\values\generated.xml

Every other build-trial doesn't create this file. I tried following:

其他所有构建试验都不会创建此文件。我尝试了以下操作：

• over IDE:
  • rebuild project
  • execute external task "assembleBuildVariant"
• over command line:
  • gradlew assembleBuildVariant

• 通过IDE：
  • 重建项目
  • 执行外部任务“assembleBuildVariant”
• 通过命令行：
  • gradlew assembleBuildVariant

Strange gradle console output:

奇怪的 gradle 控制台输出：

:app:generateBuildVariantResValues UP-TO-DATE

My build.gradle:

我的 build.gradle：

buildTypes {
    debug{
        buildConfigField "String", "FOO", "\"FOO DEBUG\""
        resValue "String", "RES FOO", "RES FOO DEBUG"
    }
    release {
        buildConfigField "String", "FOO", "\"FOO RELEASE\""
        resValue "String", "RES FOO", "RES FOO RELEASE"
    }
}

My "generated.xml":

我的“生成的.xml”：

<!-- Automatically generated file. DO NOT MODIFY -->

<!-- Values from build type: release -->
<item name="RES FOO" type="String">RES FOO RELEASE</item>

My question:

我的问题：

Is this a bug or did I miss something? And why this file isn't created by a Rebuildover the IDE?

这是一个错误还是我错过了什么？为什么这个文件不是由RebuildIDE创建的？

My build.gradle (UPDATE 2014-02-10 based on rciovatis answer):

我的 build.gradle（更新 2014-02-10 基于 rciovatis 答案）：

defaultConfig {
    minSdkVersion 14
    targetSdkVersion 19
    versionCode 1
    versionName "1.0"
    resValue "string", "RES_FOO", "RES FOO"
}

buildTypes {
    debug{
        buildConfigField "String", "FOO", "\"FOO DEBUG\""
        resValue "string", "RES_FOO", "RES FOO DEBUG"
    }
    release {
        buildConfigField "String", "FOO", "\"FOO RELEASE\""
        resValue "string", "RES_FOO", "RES FOO RELEASE"
    }
}

UPDATE 2014-02-14 IT WORKS:

更新 2014-02-14 它有效：

After an update of the gradle android plugineverything works fine:

在gradle android 插件更新后一切正常：

In /build/res/all/ you should see following folders:

在 /build/res/all/ 中，您应该看到以下文件夹：

• all
• generated (-> here you find the generated resource values by resValue)

• 全部
• 生成的（-> 在这里您可以找到生成的资源值resValue）

The first folder allcontains all merged resources. In the direction all/<buildVariant>/values/values.xmlyou should find the generated resources, in my case:

第一个文件夹all包含所有合并的资源。在all/<buildVariant>/values/values.xml你应该找到生成的资源的方向上，在我的例子中：

// for buildType DEBUG
<item name="TESTFOO" type="string">TEST FOO DEBUG</item>
// for buildType RELEASE
<item name="TESTFOO" type="string">TEST FOO RELEASE</item>

To get the values in code just use the generated resource like all others:

要获取代码中的值，只需像所有其他资源一样使用生成的资源：

getResources().getString(R.string.TESTFOO)

I solved adding the resources also in the defaultConfigblock. For you it would be something like:

我也解决了在defaultConfig块中添加资源的问题。对你来说，它会是这样的：

android {
    defaultConfig {
        resValue "string", "RES_FOO", "RES FOO RELEASE"
    }

    buildTypes {
        debug{
            buildConfigField "String", "FOO", "\"FOO DEBUG\""
            resValue "string", "RES_FOO", "RES FOO DEBUG"
        }
        release {
            buildConfigField "String", "FOO", "\"FOO RELEASE\""
            resValue "string", "RES_FOO", "RES FOO RELEASE"
        }
    }
}

Please note that:

请注意：

• item type must be stringand not String
• item name must not contain spaces (as normal resource name)

• 项目类型必须是string而不是String
• 项目名称不得包含空格（作为正常资源名称）

EDIT: Since 0.8.3 it should works fine just declaring the resValue in the build type block.

编辑：从 0.8.3 开始，它应该可以正常工作，只需在构建类型块中声明 resValue。
