If you look in /proc/self/maps you will probably see an entry for the apk with its full path name. > Ideally, in the > later case, I would like it not to display any icon on launcher, but I > have the feeling that is asking too much. I think this is statically coded in the manifest, so you may not be able to change that without making a separate apk. But you could have a separate apk that does nothing more than fire off an intent to start a normally icon-less activity. I don't think most soft keyboards have launcher tray icons anyway. -- unsubscribe: android-porting+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com website: http://groups.google.com/group/android-porting
