Get the layout / views from another activity

I am creating an android application where I want to access the views/layouts of some other application.I know the package name and the Activity name of the application I need to access.

Suppose the application I need to access is "Hello World" - the package is "com.hello" and the activity is "com.hello.HelloWorldActivity". Now based on this information I need to find the layouts and views in the HelloWorldActivity.

Is there a way to do this. Can someone help me on this.

Thanks in advance.

I think it should work.

View view = View.inflate(this, package_name.R.layout.layout_id, null);

you may watch as Android Test Projects (JUnit) have access to same signed apps. For example Robotium may access to views of differens activities.

No this is not possible. The only thing you can access at runtime is SharedPreferences and this only if the developer of the other App wants you to.
