Android PackageManager

这两个管理器其实没什么好扯的,看一下源代码基本上就知道了,用途的话除了系统本身用的最多,PackageManager在桌面Launcher APP使用.

PackageManager管理器主要负责APP Package的管理,比如安装,卸载,Package的解析,Package包的各种信息,如版本,APP图标,资源,权限等等,android系统在安装APP的时候,会弹出一个提示框,提示框中就会显示包的各种信息,并且会告诉安装者APP会用到那些权限.这些都是从app package的主配置xml解析出来的,基本上可以得到一个app的所有信息.

平时直接用的比较多的就是对应用层的PackageManager.java中的getPackageInfo,getActivityInfo,getServiceInfo还有四大组件的其他组件.间接用的比较多的就是installPackage和deletePackage.PackageManager主要对于应用的,下面是是PackageManagerService.java .以getActivityInfo举例:

@Override
    public ActivityInfo getActivityInfo(ComponentName component, int flags, int userId) {
        if (!sUserManager.exists(userId)) return null;
        enforceCrossUserPermission(Binder.getCallingUid(), userId, false, "get activity info");
        synchronized (mPackages) {
            PackageParser.Activity a = mActivities.mActivities.get(component);

            if (DEBUG_PACKAGE_INFO) Log.v(TAG, "getActivityInfo " + component + ": " + a);
            if (a != null && mSettings.isEnabledLPr(a.info, flags, userId)) {
                PackageSetting ps = mSettings.mPackages.get(component.getPackageName());
                if (ps == null) return null;
                return PackageParser.generateActivityInfo(a, flags, ps.readUserState(userId),
                        userId);
            }
            if (mResolveComponentName.equals(component)) {
                return mResolveActivity;
            }
        }
        return null;
    }

然后包的解析器PackageParser解析所有的信息返回.

public static ApplicationInfo generateApplicationInfo(Package p, int flags,
            PackageUserState state, int userId) {
        if (p == null) return null;
        if (!checkUseInstalled(flags, state)) {
            return null;
        }
        if (!copyNeeded(flags, p, state, null, userId)) {
            // CompatibilityMode is global state. It's safe to modify the instance
            // of the package.
            if (!sCompatibilityModeEnabled) {
                p.applicationInfo.disableCompatibilityMode();
            }
            // Make sure we report as installed.  Also safe to do, since the
            // default state should be installed (we will always copy if we
            // need to report it is not installed).
            p.applicationInfo.flags |= ApplicationInfo.FLAG_INSTALLED;
            if (state.enabled == PackageManager.COMPONENT_ENABLED_STATE_ENABLED) {
                p.applicationInfo.enabled = true;
            } else if (state.enabled == PackageManager.COMPONENT_ENABLED_STATE_DISABLED
                    || state.enabled
