Is It Possible To Override Android String Resource From External Aar Library?

I have a project that depends on third-party library (aar). I want to change some strings in this library (they are defined in strings.xml of the library). Is it possible to overri

Solution 1:

Yes, you can do it, but you have to override all languages in which the string is written.

Assume that the following string is in a third-party library in res/values folder.

<string name="msg">Message</string>

And this is in the library res/values-it folder:

<string name="msg">Messaggio</string>

You have to override both in your app, so, in your res/values folder, you can do:

<string name="msg">My newstring</string>

And in res/values-it, you can do:

<string name="msg">La mia stringa</string>
