cannot resolve R.array

Question

I follow the tutorial from Capturing images from camera and setting into listview in android. However, I get

Error:(42, 50) error: cannot find symbol variable array

  String imageTempName;
    String[] imageFor;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.captureList);
        getSets = new ArrayList<GetSet>();
       imageFor = getResources().getStringArray(R.array.imageFor);
        for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {

            GetSet inflate = new GetSet();
            // Global Values
            inflate.setUid(String.valueOf(i));

            inflate.setLabel("Image");
            inflate.setHaveImage(false);
            inflate.setSubtext(imageFor[i]);
            inflate.setStatus(true);

            getSets.add(inflate);
        }
        customImageAdapter = new CustomImageAdapter(getSets, MainActivity.this);
        listView.setAdapter(customImageAdapter);
    }

What's wrong here?

I cheched your link. This tutorial is missing array declaration -> No one array is declared in string resources - > Your error happen!

Add this to strings.xml

<string-array name="imageFor">
    <item>1</item>
    <item>2</item>
    <item>2</item>
</string-array>

Where 1, 2 , 3 are your strings. In this case probably they are image urls.
