<declare-styleable name = "名称">
<attr name = "background" format = "reference" />
</declare-styleable>

<ImageView
android:layout_width = "42dip"
android:layout_height = "42dip"
android:background = "@drawable/图片ID"
/>
2. color：颜色值。
（1）属性定义：
<declare-styleable name = "名称">
<attr name = "textColor" format = "color" />
</declare-styleable>
（2）属性使用：

android:layout_height = "42dip"
android:textColor = "#00FF00"

（1）属性定义：
<declare-styleable name = "名称">
<attr name = "focusable" format = "boolean" />
</declare-styleable>

5. float：浮点值。

<alpha
android:fromAlpha = "1.0"
android:toAlpha = "0.7"
/>
6. integer：整型值。
（1）属性定义：
<declare-styleable name = "AnimatedRotateDrawable">
<attr name = "visible" />
<attr name = "frameDuration" format="integer" />
<attr name = "framesCount" format="integer" />
<attr name = "pivotX" />
<attr name = "pivotY" />
<attr name = "drawable" />
</declare-styleable>
（2）属性使用：
<animated-rotate
xmlns:android = "http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:drawable = "@drawable/图片ID"

android:pivotY = "50%"
android:framesCount = "12"
android:frameDuration = "100"
/>
7. string：字符串。

8. fraction：百分数。
（1）属性定义：
<declare-styleable name="RotateDrawable">
<attr name = "visible" />
<attr name = "fromDegrees" format = "float" />
<attr name = "toDegrees" format = "float" />
<attr name = "pivotX" format = "fraction" />
<attr name = "pivotY" format = "fraction" />
<attr name = "drawable" />
</declare-styleable>
（2）属性使用：
<rotate
xmlns:android = "http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:interpolator = "@anim/动画ID"
android:fromDegrees = "0"
android:toDegrees = "360"
android:pivotX = "200%"
android:pivotY = "300%"
android:duration = "5000"
android:repeatMode = "restart"
android:repeatCount = "infinite"
/>
9. enum：枚举值。
（1）属性定义：
<declare-styleable name="名称">

<enum name="horizontal" value="0" />
<enum name="vertical" value="1" />

</declare-styleable>
（2）属性使用：
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android = "http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

android:layout_height = "fill_parent"
>
</LinearLayout>
10. flag：位或运算。
（1）属性定义：
<declare-styleable name="名称">
<attr name="windowSoftInputMode">
<flag name = "stateUnspecified" value = "0" />
<flag name = "stateUnchanged" value = "1" />
<flag name = "stateHidden" value = "2" />
<flag name = "stateAlwaysHidden" value = "3" />
<flag name = "stateVisible" value = "4" />
<flag name = "stateAlwaysVisible" value = "5" />
<flag name = "adjustUnspecified" value = "0x00" />
<flag name = "adjustResize" value = "0x10" />
<flag name = "adjustPan" value = "0x20" />
<flag name = "adjustNothing" value = "0x30" />
</attr>
</declare-styleable>
（2）属性使用：
<activity
android:name = ".StyleAndThemeActivity"

</declare-styleable>
（2）属性使用：
<ImageView
