ApplicationInfo

Value for flags: set to false if the application does not wish to permit any OS-driven backups of its data; true otherwise.

Comes from the android:allowBackup attribute of the <application> tag.

Value for flags: default value for the corresponding ActivityInfo flag. Comes from android:allowClearUserData of the <application> tag.

Value for flags: default value for the corresponding ActivityInfo flag. Comes from android:allowTaskReparenting of the <application> tag.

Value for flags: set to true if this application would like to allow debugging of its code, even when installed on a non-development system. Comes from android:debuggable of the <application> tag.

Value for flags: Set to true if the application is currently installed on external/removable/unprotected storage. Such applications may not be available if their storage is not currently mounted. When the storage it is on is not available, it will look like the application has been uninstalled (its .apk is no longer available) but its persistent data is not removed.

Value for flags: set to true if this application holds the FACTORY_TEST permission and the device is running in factory test mode.

Value for flags: set to true if this application has code associated with it. Comes from android:hasCode of the <application> tag.

Value for flags: true if the application is currently installed for the calling user.

Value for flags: true if the application only has its data installed; the application package itself does not currently exist on the device.

Value for flags: set to false if the application must be kept in memory following a full-system restore operation; true otherwise. Ordinarily, during a full system restore operation each application is shut down following execution of its agent's onRestore() method. Setting this attribute to false prevents this. Most applications will not need to set this attribute.

If android:allowBackup is set to false or no android:backupAgent is specified, this flag will be ignored.

Comes from the android:killAfterRestore attribute of the <application> tag.

Value for flags: true when the application has requested a large heap for its processes. Corresponds to android:largeHeap.

Value for flags: set to true if this application is persistent. Comes from android:persistent of the <application> tag.

Value for flags: true when the application knows how to adjust its UI for different screen sizes. Corresponds to android:resizeable.

Value for flags: Set to true if the application's backup agent claims to be able to handle restore data even "from the future," i.e. from versions of the application with a versionCode greater than the one currently installed on the device. Use with caution! By default this attribute is false and the Backup Manager will ensure that data from "future" versions of the application are never supplied during a restore operation.

If android:allowBackup is set to false or no android:backupAgent is specified, this flag will be ignored.

Comes from the android:restoreAnyVersion attribute of the <application> tag.

Value for flags: true if this application's package is in the stopped state.

Value for flags: true when the application's window can be increased in size for larger screens. Corresponds to android:largeScreens.

Value for flags: true when the application's window can be displayed on normal screens. Corresponds to android:normalScreens.

Value for flags: true when the application is willing to support RTL (right to left). All activities will inherit this value. Set from the supportsRtl attribute in the activity's manifest. Default value is false (no support for RTL).

Value for flags: true when the application knows how to accomodate different screen densities. Corresponds to android:anyDensity.

Value for flags: true when the application's window can be reduced in size for smaller screens. Corresponds to android:smallScreens.

Value for flags: true when the application's window can be increased in size for extra large screens. Corresponds to android:xlargeScreens.

Value for flags: if set, this application is installed in the device's system image.

Value for flags: this is set of the application has specified android:testOnly to be true.

Value for flags: this is set if this application has been install as an update to a built-in system application.

Value for flags: set to true if this application would like to request the VM to operate under the safe mode. Comes from android:vmSafeMode of the <application> tag.

If android:allowBackup is set to false, this attribute is ignored.

Class implementing the Application object. From the "class" attribute.

The maximum smallest screen width the application is designed for. If 0, nothing has been specified. Comes from android:compatibleWidthLimitDp attribute of the <supports-screens> tag.

Full path to a directory assigned to the package for its persistent data.

When false, indicates that all components within this application are considered disabled, regardless of their individually set enabled status.

Flags associated with the application. Any combination of FLAG_SYSTEM, FLAG_DEBUGGABLE, FLAG_HAS_CODE, FLAG_PERSISTENT, FLAG_FACTORY_TEST, and FLAG_ALLOW_TASK_REPARENTING FLAG_ALLOW_CLEAR_USER_DATA, FLAG_UPDATED_SYSTEM_APP, FLAG_TEST_ONLY, FLAG_SUPPORTS_SMALL_SCREENS, FLAG_SUPPORTS_NORMAL_SCREENS, FLAG_SUPPORTS_LARGE_SCREENS, FLAG_SUPPORTS_XLARGE_SCREENS, FLAG_RESIZEABLE_FOR_SCREENS, FLAG_SUPPORTS_SCREEN_DENSITIES, FLAG_VM_SAFE_MODE, FLAG_INSTALLED, FLAG_IS_GAME.

The maximum smallest screen width the application will work on. If 0, nothing has been specified. Comes from android:largestWidthLimitDp attribute of the <supports-screens> tag.

Class implementing the Application's manage space functionality. From the "manageSpaceActivity" attribute. This is an optional attribute and will be null if applications don't specify it in their manifest

Full path to the directory where native JNI libraries are stored.

Optional name of a permission required to be able to access this application's components. From the "permission" attribute.

The name of the process this application should run in. From the "process" attribute or, if not set, the same as packageName.

Full path to the location of the publicly available parts of this package (i.e. the primary resource package and manifest). For non-forward-locked apps this will be the same as {@link #sourceDir).

The required smallest screen width the application can run on. If 0, nothing has been specified. Comes from android:requiresSmallestWidthDp attribute of the <supports-screens> tag.

Paths to all shared libraries this application is linked against. This field is only set if the PackageManager.GET_SHARED_LIBRARY_FILES flag was used when retrieving the structure.

Full path to the location of this package.

The minimum SDK version this application targets. It may run on earlier versions, but it knows how to work with any new behavior added at this version. Will be CUR_DEVELOPMENT if this is a development build and the app is targeting that. You should compare that this number is >= the SDK version number at which your behavior was introduced.

Default task affinity of all activities in this application. See taskAffinity for more information. This comes from the "taskAffinity" attribute.

A style resource identifier (in the package's resources) of the default visual theme of the application. From the "theme" attribute or, if not set, 0.

The default extra UI options for activities in this application. Set from the uiOptions attribute in the activity's manifest.

The kernel user-ID that has been assigned to this application; currently this is not a unique ID (multiple applications can have the same uid).

Describe the kinds of special objects contained in this Parcelable's marshalled representation.

Retrieve the textual description of the application. This will call back on the given PackageManager to load the description from the application.

Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of this object. Subclasses are encouraged to override this method and provide an implementation that takes into account the object's type and data. The default implementation is equivalent to the following expression:

   getClass().getName() + '@' + Integer.toHexString(hashCode())
