Get resources from another apk

问题:

I have been struggling with this issue all day and have had no success. I am basically trying to get an image resource from another apk.

So if com.example.app has an image called image1.png in the res folder, i want com.example2.app to be able to gain access to that resource and place it in an imageview.

I know you have to use PackageManager.getResourcesForApplication, but i have still been unsuccessful in getting the actual resource.

Any help would be awesome!

Figured it out...

final String packName = "com.example2.app";
    String mDrawableName = "app_icon";

    try {
        PackageManager manager = getPackageManager();
        Resources mApk1Resources = manager.getResourcesForApplication(packName);

        int mDrawableResID = mApk1Resources.getIdentifier(mDrawableName, "drawable",packName);

        Drawable myDrawable = mApk1Resources.getDrawable( mDrawableResID );

        if( myDrawable != null )
            TEST.setBackgroundDrawable(myDrawable );

    }
    catch (NameNotFoundException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

try this:

final String packName = "com.example.app ";
Resources resources;
try {
    PackageManager manager = getPackageManager();
    resources = manager.getResourcesForApplication(packName);

    int resID = resources.getIdentifier("image1", "drawable", packName);
    Log.d(TAG, "resID = " + resID);
    Drawable image = getResources().getDrawable(resID);
    Log.d(TAG, "resID = " + resID);
}
catch (NameNotFoundException e) {
    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
    e.printStackTrace();
}
