Resources$NotFoundException in Graphical Layout ADT preview (but app actually Works)
===

My problem is that loading an array of strings defined in XML works in the app but will result in an error in the ADT Graphical Layout preview.

Now I can't see any graphics in the Graphical Layout because of this error, and it's difficult to work with other graphics.
But the view is loading and displaying the strings fine if I build and run my app.

So I suppose my code is correct but either:

 - I am missing some limitations of the Graphical Layout preview and some workaround
 - or perhaps I'm missing something obvious and doing things wrong even if it seems to work in the app   

I have a custom view where I get an array defined by me in an array.xml file.

    public class ScoreTable extends View {
      [...]
      @Override
      protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
        [...]
        int score_vals[] = getResources().getIntArray(R.array.score_vals);
        [...]
      }
      [...]
    }
	
My array is defined in res/values/array.xml:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <resources>
        <array name="score_vals">
            <item >10</item>
            <item >20</item>
            <item >50</item>
        </array>
    </resources>

Graphical Layout is blank and says:

    Int array resource ID #0x7f050000
    Exception details are logged in Window > Show View > Error Log

But of course I have "public static final int score_vals=0x7f050000;" in R.java!

The details of this error are in a 50-deep stack, but resumes to this:

    android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException: Int array resource ID #0x7f050000
    	at android.content.res.Resources.getIntArray(Resources.java:405)
    	at com.threecats.poker.ScoreTable.onDraw(ScoreTable.java:53)
    	at android.view.View.draw(View.java:6740)
    [...]

So, should getResources().getXXXArray() work in the context of a ADT Graphical Layout preview?

I would like to mention that I tried with both "array" and "array-integer" in the XML, and both work in the app but not in the preview.
Also I tried to save the Context from the constructor of the view in a private Context member... didn't help either.
