问题

I want to read all the xml files in res folder. I able to read Manifest file using jar AXMLPrinter2.jar Same way i am trying to read xml files in res folder like below,

java -jar 'AXMLPrinter2.jar' 'account_list_item.xml' >'account_list_item.txt' 

but it shows some exception like bellow,

java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 109
    at android.content.res.StringBlock.getShort(StringBlock.java:231)
    at android.content.res.StringBlock.getString(StringBlock.java:91)
    at android.content.res.AXmlResourceParser.getName(AXmlResourceParser.java:140)
    at test.AXMLPrinter.main(AXMLPrinter.java:56)

Is there any way?

回答1:

I think AXMLPrinter2.jar needs that you first extract the XML files from the APK. You can do that with apktool, which already transforms the files into a human-readable form.

Use like this:

apktool decode --no-src yourapk.apk

according to this and this
if apk's minSdkVersion >= 7, it didn't work

UPDATE:
