Hi,
You can use Dex file to load a class dynamically:
DexFile df = new DexFile(new File(appDir));
ClassLoader cl = getClassLoader();
Class clazz = df.loadClass(dynClass, cl);
appDir can be found using PackageManager if you wish so (eg: /data/app/
MyPack.apk). dynClass is the class that you want to load. Be careful
to ensure that the package name of the appDir is different then the
one from where you are loading the class. You might want to create
your own classloader. I will do so shortly and post it on somewhere
online. Currently I don't really have time.
Regards,
Carl
