[android] hardcoded string "row three", should use @string resource

I'm a beginner android developer , I was trying to run this Linear Layout in eclipse :

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent">

  <LinearLayout
      android:orientation="horizontal"
      android:layout_width="fill_parent"
      android:layout_height="fill_parent"
      android:layout_weight="1">
      <TextView
          android:text="red"
          android:gravity="center_horizontal"
          android:background="#aa0000"
          android:layout_width="wrap_content"
          android:layout_height="fill_parent"
          android:layout_weight="1"/>
      <TextView
          android:text="green"
          android:gravity="center_horizontal"
          android:background="#00aa00"
          android:layout_width="wrap_content"
          android:layout_height="fill_parent"
          android:layout_weight="1"/>
      <TextView
          android:text="blue"
          android:gravity="center_horizontal"
          android:background="#0000aa"
          android:layout_width="wrap_content"
          android:layout_height="fill_parent"
          android:layout_weight="1"/>
      <TextView
          android:text="yellow"
          android:gravity="center_horizontal"
          android:background="#aaaa00"
          android:layout_width="wrap_content"
          android:layout_height="fill_parent"
          android:layout_weight="1"/>
  </LinearLayout>

  <LinearLayout
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:layout_weight="1">
    <TextView
        android:text="row one"
        android:textSize="15pt"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_weight="1"/>
    <TextView
        android:text="row two"
        android:textSize="15pt"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_weight="1"/>
    <TextView
        android:text="row three"
        android:textSize="15pt"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_weight="1"/>
    <TextView
        android:text="row four"
        android:textSize="15pt"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_weight="1"/>
  </LinearLayout>

</LinearLayout>

And, I noticed :
1) yellow line under android:text="Yellow"
2) yellow line under android:text="row four"
the Triangle warn says [I18N] Hardcoded string "Yellow", should use @string resource " and same for the rest of the warnings.Any suggestion?

You must create them under strings.xml

<string name="close">Close</string>    

You must replace and reference like this

android:text="@string/close"/>

Do not use @strings even though the XML file says strings.xml or else it will not work.

A good practice is write text inside String.xml

example:

String.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <string name="yellow">Yellow</string>
</resources>

and inside layout:

<TextView android:layout_width="fill_parent"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:text="@string/yellow" />

It is not good practice to hard code strings into your layout files/ code. You should add them to a string resource file and then reference them from your layout.

1. This allows you to update every occurrence of the same word in all
   layouts at the same time by just editing your strings.xml file.
2. It is also extremely useful for supporting multiple languages as a separate strings.xml file can be used for each supported language
3. the actual point of having the @string system please read over the localization documentation. It allows you to easily locate text in your app and later have it translated.
4. Strings can be internationalized easily, allowing your application to support multiple languages with a single application package file (APK).

Benefits

• Lets say you used same string in 10 different locations in the code. What if you decide to alter it? Instead of searching for where all it has been used in the project you just change it once and changes are reflected everywhere in the project.
• Strings don’t clutter up your application code, leaving it clear and easy to maintain.

You can go to Design mode and select "Fix" at the bottom of the warning. Then a pop up will appear (seems like it's going to register the new string) and voila, the error is fixed.
