Question

I have made a custom class extending Preferences. I have used that custom class in a XML layout file and need to access the values there.
part of my layout file:

<MyCustomClass
android:id="@+id/custom01"
android:title="ineedthistext" />

How can I retrieve “ineedthistext” as a string?

Answer 1

Via the class constructor:

public MyCustomClass(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
    ...
    // Get an attribute
    X var = attrs.getX(...);
}
