  • Publication number: 20140143766
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for re-skinning a third party's application. A third-party application establishes a resource file package. The resource file package includes a resource file storage path and a mapping relation between them. A subject file package is established which shares the resource file storage path. The subject file package includes resource files for presentation to be replaced. To generate a re-skinning presentation the third-party application sends the resource ID for a resource file to be presented to an operating system; the operating system obtains a corresponding resource file storage path from the resource file package according to the resource file ID; and the operating system obtains the resource file to be replaced for presentation from the subject file packet according to the resource file storage path. The resource file to be replaced for presentation is sent to the third-party application and presented to generate the re-skinning presentation.
