Apktool Selection Feature Request...
Closed this issue · 3 comments
@kefir500, it would be great if there was a way to be able to update/add the Apktool.jar file without having to rename it.
For example... Keeping the latest Apktool download name "apktool_2.3.3.jar" instead of renaming it to "apktool.jar".
I ask this because sometimes there may be an issue with a new Apktool release that would possibly require having to revert back a release or two.
An idea could be to have a separate Apktool directory (inside where its located now) and having multiple releases within it. Then within the settings of the software, being able to either have a drop down list box to select which one to use OR have a button selection that will browse to the Apktool directory to select the version to use.
I hope that I had explained this okay via text... :-)
If you need a more visual example, i can create a few example custom images to give you the general idea.
Thank you very much My Friend!

This would definitely be a useful feature!
I understand your idea, however it's more likely that I will implement it in a different way: there will be an option to set the path to an external Apktool file (regardless of its name or location). If the application directory will be used for external files, some users may encounter problems, e.g. permission issues on Windows (UAC) and Unix.
@kefir500, I had thought of this idea when I use the APK Easy Tool software (my alternative). If you were to check it out, you may be able to obtain a sense of how it works and, hopefully, what makes it work.
