How to use resValue?

Question

I need to calculate integer value in build.gradle and then use it in my Java code. I try:

build.gradle:

android {
    defaultConfig {
        resValue "int", "MY_VAR_NAME", "123"
    }
}

preprocess.xml in values directory:

<integer name="my_int_value">MY_VAR_NAME</integer>

And I get an error Cannot resolve symbol MY_VAR_NAME.

How to use it? Is there manual?

For Integer You Have to Use Like

resValue "integer", "MY_VALUE", "123"

Or

Define your Values in gradle.properties file , Like this !

# Specifies the JVM arguments used for the daemon process.
# The setting is particularly useful for tweaking memory settings.

org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx1536m
# Your Values
MY_VALUE="123"
MY_VALUE1="124"
MY_VALUE2="125"

# When configured, Gradle will run in incubating parallel mode.
# This option should only be used with decoupled projects. More details, visit
#http://www.gradle.org/docs/current/userguide/multi_project_builds.html#sec:decoupled_projects
# org.gradle.parallel=true

Access from Your App build.gradle file
resValue "integer", "my_value", (project.findProperty("MY_VALUE") ?: "0")
resValue "integer", "my_value1", (project.findProperty("MY_VALUE1") ?: "0")
resValue "integer", "my_value2", (project.findProperty("MY_VALUE2") ?: "0")
