Android 动态加载其它APK的资源文件

 总所周知，activity的工作主要是由ContextImpl来完成的， 它在activity中是一个叫做mBase的成员变量。注意到Context中有如下两个抽象方法，看起来是和资源有关的，实际上context就是通过它们来获取资源的，这两个抽象方法的真正实现在ContextImpl中。

    @Override
    public AssetManager getAssets() {
        // Ensure we're returning assets with the correct configuration.
        return getResourcesInternal().getAssets();
    }

    @Override
    public Resources getResources() {
        return getResourcesInternal();
    }

而想拿到其它apk的资源文件，关键就在于获取到该apk的resources对象。废话不多说，直接上代码。

    private static Context sPkgContext;
    private static Resources sPkgResources;
    private static PackageInfo sPkgArchiveInfo;


    public static void loadPackage(Context context, String packageName) {
        String dexPath = null;
        try {
            ApplicationInfo applicationInfo = context.getPackageManager().getApplicationInfo(packageName, 0);
            //check package
            if (applicationInfo == null) {
                return;
            }
            dexPath = applicationInfo.sourceDir;
        } catch (PackageManager.NameNotFoundException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        //check path
        if (TextUtils.isEmpty(dexPath)) {
            return;
        }

        Context pluginContext = null;
        try {
            pluginContext = context.createPackageContext(packageName, Context.CONTEXT_IGNORE_SECURITY | Context.CONTEXT_INCLUDE_CODE);
        } catch (PackageManager.NameNotFoundException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

        PackageInfo pluginPackageArchiveInfo = context.getPackageManager().getPackageArchiveInfo(dexPath, PackageManager.GET_ACTIVITIES);
        Log.d(TAG, "loadApk: dexPath " + dexPath);
        Log.d(TAG, "loadApk: pluginPackageArchiveInfo " + pluginPackageArchiveInfo);

        //加载apk的资源
        AssetManager assets = null;
        try {
            assets = AssetManager.class.newInstance();
            Method addAssetPath = AssetManager.class.getMethod("addAssetPath", String.class);
            addAssetPath.invoke(assets, dexPath);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        Resources pluginResources = new Resources(assets, context.getResources().getDisplayMetrics(), context.getResources().getConfiguration());
        Log.d(TAG, "loadApk: pluginResources " + pluginResources);


        sPkgContext = pluginContext;
        sPkgResources = pluginResources;
        sPkgArchiveInfo = pluginPackageArchiveInfo;
    }

 说明：加载的方法是通过反射，通过调用AssetManager中的隐藏方法addAssetPath，我们可以将一个apk中的资源加载到Resources中，addAssetPat的注释如下

    /**
     * Add an additional set of assets to the asset manager.  This can be
     * either a directory or ZIP file.  Not for use by applications.  Returns
     * the cookie of the added asset, or 0 on failure.
     * {@hide}
     */
    public final int addAssetPath(String path) {
        int res = addAssetPathNative(path);
        return res;
    }

通过 addAssetPath 将指定的apk资源加载到AssetManager中，然后再通过AssetManager来创建一个新的Resources对象，这个对象就是我们可以使用的apk中的资源了，这样我们就可以动态的加载其它apk的资源了。
