Hi, According to 'unzip -v' command for my own apk file, the zip-file is compressed:
4653 Defl:N 1132 76% 03-19-14 00:18 e65916c3 assets/layout/gfx720/profile.xml 76% of the file is the compression ratio. Use built-in java Zip* classes to access your contents inside APK if you don't want to use AssetManager: http://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/zip/ZipFile.html http://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/zip/ZipInputStream.html On Thursday, March 20, 2014 8:27:14 PM UTC+4, sushant sharma wrote: > > Hi, > The questions I have is: > > 1) Are the files kept in "assets" folder compressed when apk is zipped. > 2) Are the files kept in "res/raw" folder compressed when apk is zipped. > > > Lets say if the answer to the questions is Yes, ie, the files are > compressed. > 1) Does this mean that AssetManager does the decompression and then gives > us the istream? > 2) Lets assume that I don't go through the AssetManager and read the file > directly by accessing the apk path and the offset (The FileDescriptor > method).
