That doesn't fix the security hole, just makes it a little harder for people to exploit. Not much, though, since they can easily monitor the directory where you place them. Why not just put them in your app's data directory, which nobody else can touch? > I want to do this because I wanna run different things, those will > be decided at runtime.

It's not as much of a concern on Windows, though, because its security is much looser and all of the apps tend to run as the same user, anyway. -- Dianne Hackborn Android framework engineer hack...@android.com Note: please don't send private questions to me, as I don't have time to provide private support.
