How to create a collection from res/values/arrays.xml:

<resources>
<string-array name="select_dialog_items">
    <item&g开发者_StackOverflow中文版t;Start</item>
    <item>Stop</item>
    <item>Delete</item>
</string-array>
</resources>

Assuming that this is your Activity...

String[] data = this.getResources().getStringArray(R.array.select_dialog_items);
