Hi, I've an app that must act as a container and launch other components (submodules). These submodules are developed by third party clients. Let's imagine that every subcomponent is made up by one or more activities; there are also resources like images, strings, etc. The container must integrate these subcomponents. Now I have two options: 1. Each subcomponent is an android library. The container app will reference these subcomponents as standard android libraries. The problem with this solution is that you must have the library project (and consequently, the source code) available. There is a second solution: 2. Each subcomponent is a different apk. The container can start a subcomponent by sending it an implicit intent with a predefined action that is included among the intent filters of subcomponent's main activity. (The subcomponent main activity can't be started by user, it can be started only with an implicit intent). Here's my problem: when the app is finished, it will be distributed in the android market. Is it possible to include the subcomponents as separate apk on the market? If yes, how can the main container check if the subcomponents are installed on the device? And if they are not installed on the device, how can ask the user to download and install them?
