Can an unescaped apostrophe in a literal defined in strings.xml cause my app to crash?
<p>Google's official documentation mentions:</p>

<p>Escaping apostrophes and quotes</p>

<p>If you have an apostrophe or a quote in your string, you must either escape it or enclose the whole string in the other type of enclosing quotes. For example, here are some stings that do and don't work:</p>

<pre><code>&lt;string name="good_example"&gt;"This'll work"&lt;/string&gt;
&lt;string name="good_example_2"&gt;This\'ll also work&lt;/string&gt;
&lt;string name="bad_example"&gt;This doesn't work&lt;/string&gt;
&lt;string name="bad_example_2"&gt;XML encodings don&amp;apos;t work&lt;/string&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>My question is: Would unescaped quotes cause the application to crash or would it just have no effect and the quotes won't appear in the app UI? Would it crash on specific Android versions? I ask this because if I don't escape this symbol, Eclipse SDK gives me compilation errors but I came across a third-party app code which does not escape these characters, it crashes randomly and I'd like to confirm that this is/ is not one of the possible reasons for the crash.</p>
