[android-developers] Re: get Certificates from Package

[Lutz Schönemann]

Well there is a PackageParser class inside the core which reads the Certificates. But there seems to be no interface to get them via the standard API. Do I have to let my app parse the package it self?

Hi,

I'm looking for a way to get the certificates from a package that are
used to sign it. Using the PackageInfo class it is possible to get the
signatures. But what can I do with signatures if I don't get the
public keys to verify these.

The next question I have where does the PackageInstaller verify the
signed APK file? The PackageParser class loads the APK file into a
JarFile object but does this automatically verify the signature?

Thanks for help
Lutz
