Where is the best place to store static string resources in android?

Question

Android

Let's say I have some options.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <string name="host">api.site.com</string>
    <string name="port">9001</string>
    <string name="protocol">http</string>
</resources>

And I get the value like this: requestManager.request(getString(R.string.host), ...
Is this a good way, or is there a better practice?

Answer 1

Well, if the hostname, port and protocol do not change depending on the language, screen size, etc., then you can simply store this in a class with constants
public static final String HOST = "api.site.com";
