Android插件技术——（三）加载未安装apk

上一篇我们介绍了加载已安装apk，本篇将介绍加载未安装apk。

未安装apk由于系统毫不知情，因此无法通过系统api获取其上下文，自然也就无法获取其资源。接下来，我们将另辟蹊径来解决这个问题。

步骤如下：
一、采用上一篇中的Android Host工程，仍然导出插件接口类
二、新建Android插件工程，导入插件接口类，编译成apk，并push到手机
三、运行Android Host，加载插件

Android Host工程如下

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

    private Button mBtn;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        mBtn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn);
        mBtn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                loadPlugin();
            }
        });

    }

    private void loadPlugin() {
        File jarFile = new File(getExternalCacheDir(), "AndroidPlugin.apk");
        File outputDir = getDir("plugin", 0);

        FileUtils.deleteDirectory(outputDir);

        DexClassLoader loader = new DexClassLoader(jarFile.getAbsolutePath(),
                outputDir.getAbsolutePath(), null, getClass().getClassLoader());

        try {
            Class<?> clazz = loader.loadClass("com.example.androidplugin.MainActivity");
            IPlugin plugin = (IPlugin) clazz.newInstance();

            String text = String.format("getInt: %d, getString: %s", plugin.getInt(),
                    plugin.getString());
            Toast.makeText(this, text, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (InstantiationException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (IllegalAccessException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

Android插件工程

public class MainActivity extends Activity implements IPlugin {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    }

    @Override
    public int getInt() {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return 100;
    }

    @Override
    public String getString() {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return "Hello, This is Plugin!";
    }
}

有一点需要注意：插件工程中不能直接导入插件接口jar，如下

不能选择Add JARs，而是应该选择Add External JARs，否则会报运行时错误如下

我们注意到插件工程中插件的接口jar放在libs_ex目录中，而不是libs目录中，就是为避免eclipse自动将libs中的jar直接添加到工程中了。

运行Host工程，可以成功地加载插件apk中的MainActivity，并调用其插件接口getString返回了字符串，然而这里MainActivity只是被当做了一个普通java类被调起而已，并不是真正意义上的Android组件，我们可以尝试着在getString时返回Android字符串资源。如下：

public class MainActivity extends Activity implements IPlugin {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    }

    @Override
    public int getInt() {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return 100;
    }

    @Override
    public String getString() {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return getString(R.string.hello_world);
    }
}

运行Host调起插件，结果会崩溃，日志如下：

可见插件中的Activity只是一个普通的Java类，无法获取其系统资源，要获取系统资源必须获取插件的Resources，Host中修改如下：

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

    private Button mBtn;

    private Resources mPluginResources;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        mBtn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn);
        mBtn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                loadPlugin();
            }
        });

    }

    private void loadPlugin() {
        File jarFile = new File(getExternalCacheDir(), "AndroidPlugin.apk");
        File outputDir = getDir("plugin", 0);

        FileUtils.deleteDirectory(outputDir);

        DexClassLoader loader = new DexClassLoader(jarFile.getAbsolutePath(),
                outputDir.getAbsolutePath(), null, getClass().getClassLoader());

        try {
            Class<?> clazz = loader.loadClass("com.example.androidplugin.MainActivity");
            IPlugin plugin = (IPlugin) clazz.newInstance();

            loadResources(jarFile.getAbsolutePath());

            int resId = mPluginResources.getIdentifier("hello_world", "string",
                    "com.example.androidplugin");
            String text = mPluginResources.getString(resId);

            Toast.makeText(this, plugin.getInt() + text, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (InstantiationException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (IllegalAccessException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

    private void loadResources(String dexPath) {
        AssetManager assetManager = null;

        try {
            assetManager = AssetManager.class.newInstance();
            Method addAssetPath = assetManager.getClass().getMethod("addAssetPath", String.class);
            addAssetPath.invoke(assetManager, dexPath);
        } catch (InstantiationException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (IllegalAccessException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (NoSuchMethodException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (InvocationTargetException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

        Resources resources = getResources();
        mPluginResources = new Resources(assetManager, resources.getDisplayMetrics(),
                resources.getConfiguration());
        mPluginResources.newTheme().setTo(getTheme());
    }
}
