Apps New to android - question on res dir

[djdunleavy]

I'm new to Andriod development and naturally have been doing quite a bit of reading.

In one book it said "never save resources directly in the res dir"

Can someone expand on that for me?

Thanks

The "res" directory is short for the "resource" directory. You're going to end up putting almost everything that isn't your code into this directory (actually their subdirectories). This include your screen layouts, pictures, sound files, etc. Check out the Android development section on it. Here's the link.
