I wrote a native application needs the process name of the calling process. I use the getppid() function to ge the calling process name and then use the /proc/PID/status to determine the name. However, it appears whats in there is not always the same as the package name of an APK or whats listed in PS.
For example. When I launch the Calculator and cat the status file for that pid, it lists as oid.calculator. However, whats in PS is com.android.calculator. The same is true in the packages.xml file. Why is it that the /proc/pid/status name is not showing the correct information?
