Resource Redirection of R.xml

[Quinny899]

I'm finally updating my Google Keyboard Custom Smilies module, but the new version of Google Keyboard uses a new system, it has all the stuff in R.xml. It looks like I can actually make the module far better, with a whole new page for the custom smiles, but I've hit a problem, I can't get Xposed to redirect XML:

resparam.res.setReplacement("com.google.android.inputmethod.latin", "xml", "softkeys_body_smiley", modRes.fwd(R.xml.softkeys_body_smiley));

Does not work, shows no errors or anything in the log, just does nothing

Is there some error here? Does Xposed not support redirecting XML?

Also, if I CAN redirect XML, can I redirect it to a string, where the string simply contains XML? Else it won't be very "custom"

Cheers

haven't tested but looks like it does, and that you can also hook XResources
