[osg-users] Accessing assets from the Android APK

[Colin Cochran]

Hi,

Currently I'm accessing textures / models for my scene by copying all 3d assets from my Android APK to the external storage. This way, I can refer to the assets via their fully-qualified paths on the system. This works but wastes a lot of space and now we must ask the user for permission to write to external storage as of Android M. 

Does anyone know how to "tell" osgDB to access assets from the APK (which is a really just a zip file)? Figured many others have encountered this issue before but I haven't found much on the forum.

Best,
Colin
