Android:text from string array

Question

Is it possible to set text of textview in xml from string array? (like android:text="@string/title[3]" if I want to set the third item) Or I have to do it programatically?

Thanks in advance.

It is not possible. textview.setText(title[3])

Unfortunately you cannot access in layout xml file.

But you can do it in java

    String[] some_array = getResources().getStringArray(R.array.your_string_array);
textView.setText(some_array[5]);
