Um, you are making this way too hard. You should load code with this: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Context.html#createPackageContext(java.lang.String, int)
And please please note, there are major security and functional issues with loading code like this. If this isn't all code you have written that is only running in your own app, you really need to seriously rethink what you are doing. Security -- you are allowing someone else's code to run in your process, with your identity, with your permissions. They can do everything you can, as you, so any problems in their code are effectively -your- problem. Functionality -- the code is loading and running with your uid, so it can not request its own permissions, and can only read and write files under your data directory. if multiple applications load it, all of its data is isolated in each of those apps, and it ends up running with different permissions depending on the app. On Fri, Dec 18, 2009 at 12:12 PM, B++ <[email protected]> wrote: > After some further analysis, I noticed that memory resources are > released if the loaded class belongs to the same apk as the app. The > problem seems to be apparent if a loaded class belongs to a different > apk.
