XML within an Android string resource?

I was wondering if I could place XML within /res/values/strings.xml? I ask this because I am checking for the XML data file for my application, if it does not exist yet then it creates it from the default contents that will be contained as a string resource.

Eclipse tries to change the less than and greater than tags to their corresponding HTML entities when using the GUI to edit the strings. Is eclipse on the right track? Because I should think that it will be written out into my file as HTML entities too. Could I use getText() rather than getString() to convert the entities back into tags?

Thanks for any advice you can give.

Yes you can, just use CDATA

<string name="stringName1"><![CDATA[<html>bla</html>]]></string>

I have done this way:

Put your string in strings.xml

<string name="my_string"><![CDATA[Your long text here]]></string>

How to use: 

<TextView
    android:id="@+id/textView"
    android:text="@string/my_string"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

Done

It will obviously not work unless you escape characters in there such as < or > or &.

If you do encode the XML, it should work fine but probably not the best way to do it. I would prefer binary resource.

For putting in string.xml, you may encode using 

String encoded = URLEncoder.encode(xml);

And decoding is the opposite.

For binary, you place it in RAW folder and you get a binary stream and turn it to string and load.
