<h3>Escaping apostrophes and quotes</h3>

<h3 id="escaping_quotes">Escaping apostrophes and quotes</h3>

<p>If you have an apostrophe or a quote in your string, you must either escape it or enclose the

<p>

whole string in the other type of enclosing quotes. For example, here are some stings that

  If you have an apostrophe (<code>'</code>) in your string, you must either

do and don't work:</p>

  escape it with a backslash (<code>\'</code>) or enclose the string in

  double-quotes (<code>""</code>). For example, here are some strings that do

  and don't work:

</p>

<pre>

<pre>

<string name="good_example">"This'll work"</string>

<string name="good_example">This\'ll work</string>

<string name="good_example_2">This\'ll also work</string>

<string name="good_example_2">"This'll also work"</string>

<string name="bad_example">This doesn't work</string>

<string name="bad_example">This doesn't work</string>

<string name="bad_example_2">XML encodings don't work</string>

    <!-- Causes a compile error -->

</pre>

</pre>

<p>

  If you have a double-quote in your string, you must escape it

  (<code>\"</code>). Surrounding the string with single-quotes does

  <em>not</em> work.

</p>

<pre>

<string name="good_example">This is a \"good string\".</string>

<string name="bad_example">This is a "bad string".</string>

    <!-- Quotes are stripped; displays as: This is a bad string. -->

<string name="bad_example_2">'This is another "bad string".'</string>

    <!-- Causes a compile error -->

</pre>
