List of reserved words in Android

Viewed 4835

I'm currently in the interface design process of developing another Android app and once again I seem to be trying to use reserved words for the resources (be it drawables and layouts). To my knowledge there are a set of rules you need to know:

  • No uppercase is allowed.
  • No symbols apart from underscore.
  • No numbers

Appart from those (please correct me if I'm wrong) I think you can't use any of the reserver words from JAVA which after a little googling appear to be the following:

So my question would be if there is somewhere in the docs that I've failed to locate, that explains in detail what we can and can not use for resource names. This is right after reading the page about resources so its possible that I'm simply worthless in reading.
