Set translated languages in application

Question

The default language of my app is English and I translated it into German. But now if I want to export it as an signed application in Eclipse there comes many errors that all string are not translated in other languages like es, fr , it and so on.

How can I export my app as signed application with only two languages and ignore all other languages?

You don't need to translate your app if you don't want to. Just check that all strings are defined in the base values/ folder. Then you can create more values-XX/ folders with their own strings.xml with all of the strings (or just a fraction of them). Android will take the default string if it doesn't find the localised version of the string.

If you are not localising to other languages, make sure that their values folder are not defined. For example, if you are not localising to Spanish, make sure that you don't have the values-es/ folder in your res/ folder.

I don't have the other folders in my project. – Cilenco Jun 21 '13 at 11:41 — Cilenco, Jun 21 '13 at 11:41
