Android: Cannot Find Plist In Res/raw Using Xmlwise

I am trying to read a plist into my android app using xml wise. This is my code String path = 'android.resource://' + context.getPackageName() + '/' + R.raw.nameofplist; Map

Solution 1:

I struggled to find an answer to this too... but I worked it out eventually.

Here's my solution based on a plist file called airports.plist sitting in the res/raw folder.

Map<String, Object> properties = null;
try {
    InputStream inputStream =getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.airports);
    BufferedReader br = null;
    try {
        br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(inputStream));
        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
        String line;
        while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
            sb.append(line);
        }
        properties = Plist.fromXml(sb.toString());

        //TODO do something with the object here
        System.out.println("plist object... "+properties);

    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } finally {
        br.close();
    }
} catch (Exception ex) {
    ex.printStackTrace();
}

Hope this helps someone!
