What I'm doing is getting a list of all the current running processes on the phone. Which I have done by,
private List<RunningAppProcessInfo> process;
private ActivityManager activityMan;
...
activityMan = (ActivityManager)getSystemService(Context.ACTIVITY_SERVICE);
process = activityMan.getRunningAppProcesses();
this works fine. When I call the processName field like
process.get(i).processName;
I get a name like com.android.mail for example.
what I'm trying to do is use this to get access to that application so I can display its icon to the user, but I cant find anything that lets me do this. Is there something that can help me?
I'm testing this app on my hero so the api level is 3 (android 1.5).
Thanks.
Ok, I figured out how to do it. In case your curious this is what I did.
private PackageManager pk;
pk = getPackageManager();
....
pk.getApplicationIcon(process.get(i).processName)
Thanks.
