apktool-lib

v1.4.4-5

Overview

This library decodes a given precompiled XML resource (such as AndroidManifest.xml)

from an APK without requiring an Android application context.

Normally, precompiled (as opposed to raw) XML can be accessed from an Android application

using AssetManager.openXmlResourceParser(). In order to get an instance of

AssetManager, the caller must have access to the Android application context, which

is normally unavailable for libraries. A possible workaround is to pass the context (e.g.,

via the consumer's constructor) to libraries that need context-specific classes, but

that might be infeasible or undesirable in some applications, including ones that need

access to the precompiled XML before the context is initialized. apktool-lib enables

libraries to read precompiled XML without an application context or the Android AssetManager.

This is based on the APK Tool project.

Usage

Parse XML events from AXmlResourceParser in a loop, as in the following code example:

import brut.androlib.res.decoder.AXmlResourceParser;

//...

// called from a library, used by an Android application

public void readManifest() {

InputStream manifestStream = getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("AndroidManifest.xml");

parseXmlStream(manifestStream);

}

public void parseXmlStream(InputStream stream) {

AXmlResourceParser xpp = new AXmlResourceParser(stream);

int eventType = -1;

while ((eventType = xpp.next()) > -1) {

if (XmlPullParser.START_DOCUMENT == eventType) {

startDocument(xpp);

} else if (XmlPullParser.END_DOCUMENT == eventType) {

endDocument();

break;

} else if (XmlPullParser.START_TAG == eventType) {

startElement(xpp);

} else if (XmlPullParser.END_TAG == eventType) {

endElement(xpp);

} else if (XmlPullParser.TEXT == eventType) {

characters(xpp);

}

}

}
