Whats's the max length of an Android XML widget id.

Like of a TextView:

<TextView  
    android:layout_width="match_parent" 
    android:layout_height="match_parent" 
    android:id="@+id/whatIsTheMaxLength"/>

    Why do you set the id with a String? Shouldn't it be like `"@+id/some_id"` instead? – HendraWD Jun 05 '19 at 19:11
  • It doesn't really matter, its translated to an int during the compile stage. If there is a max size, its the max size of a Java identifier which is 64K bytes – Gabe Sechan Jun 05 '19 at 19:14
