The bytes in blue are the chunk header and those in green the chunk body.
2.0 Chunk Header
The chunk header is an instance of struct ResChunk_header.
The header.type field is 0x0180 (RES_XML_RESOURCE_MAP_TYPE).
3.0 Chunk Body
The chunk body is an array of Resource Ids.
The element at index i is the Resource Id of the Attribute named by the string at index i in the StringPool chunk of the containing XML chunk.
4.0 The Example Annotated
This is an annotated version of the XMLResourceMap chunk from the example.
...
0000018c 80 01 // type [XML_RESOURCE_MAP]
0000018e 08 00 // header size
00000190 18 00 00 00 // chunk size
--------------------

0000019c f5 00 01 01 // [2]
000001a0 4f 01 01 01 // [3]
==================== [End of XML_RESOURCE_MAP]
...
The specified Resource Ids are
-
0x010100c4 -
0x010100f4 -
0x010100f5 -
0x0101014f
The first four strings in the StringPool are
-
orientation
-
layout_width
-
layout_height
-
text
Checking the documentation shows that the Resource Ids of the attributes
-
R.attr.orientation -
R.attr.layout_width -
R.attr.layout_height -
R.attr.text
in the android package are indeed those specified in the chunk body.
