Syntax error on token "QUOTE", VariableDeclaratorId expected after this token
<p>I've posted a bigger chunk of the code  below.  You can see that initially QUOTE was procedural- coded in place.  I'm trying to learn how to use declarative design so I want to do the same thing  but  by using resources.  It seems like I need to access the string.xml thru the @R.id tag and identify QUOTE with that string value.   But I don't know enough to negotiate this.  Any tips?  Thanks!</p>

<p>public class circle extends Activity {
   @Override
   public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
      super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
      setContentView(new GraphicsView(this));
   }</p>

<p>static public class GraphicsView extends View {</p>

<pre><code>  //private static final String QUOTE = "Happy Birthday to David.";

   private final String QUOTE = getString(R.string.quote);
</code></pre>

<p>.....
      @Override
      protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
         // Drawing commands go here</p>

<pre><code>     canvas.drawPath(circle, cPaint);
     canvas.drawTextOnPath(QUOTE, circle, 0, 20, tPaint);
</code></pre>
