Is there a way to view the contents of a manifest file from an APK?

I saw here that someone listed the contents of the manifest of the official Facebook app's APK. Is there a way to开发者_C百科 decompile that, or is that info available elsewhere?

An APK file is just a JAR - change the extension to .JAR, and use a decompression tool to decompress it.

If you're using windows, you could just use WinRAR - that should decompress JARs.

In addition to that, a JAR is just a regular ZIP file - so you could technically just change the APK extension to .ZIP instead, and open it up using pretty much any decompression tool (as mentioned by Peter).

Here's some more info on JARs:
