• 描述:
  Idmap files play an integral part in the runtime resource overlay framework. An idmap
  file contains a mapping of resource identifiers between overlay package and its target
  package; this mapping is used during resource lookup. Idmap files also act as control
  files by their existence: if not present, the corresponding overlay package is ignored
  when the resource context is created.

  Idmap files are stored in /data/resource-cache. For each pair (target package, overlay
  package), there exists exactly one idmap file, or none if the overlay should not be used
