get_files() doesn't get all files in APK! #124

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

Most notably, res/values/strings.xml is not found. Is this a problem with the 
zip module? I've tried chilkat (0), zipfile(1), and patch zipfile (2). The file 
is there, I checked by manual extraction of the APK with an unzipper.
I'd like to read the contents of strings.xml to get information like app name 
etc.

the res/values/strings.xml should be compiled into the resources.arsc file.
i checked multiple apks and there is always no strings.xml in there.

are you sure that this file is really inside the apk? please open it with a 
normal unzip tool and check if its there.

have you tried it? 
btw: to extract the content of the res/values/strings.xml use androarsc.py
