[android-developers] displaying info about packages in ListView without ApplicationInfo noise.

Hi,

i want to get in listview details of Android apps installed in the device.

i can get some of the data i want inside the DDMS with the following code:

final PackageManager pm = getPackageManager();

List<ApplicationInfo> packages = pm.getInstalledApplications(PackageManager.GET_META_DATA);

for (ApplicationInfo packageInfo : packages) 

{

Log.d("TAG", "Installed package :" + packageInfo.packageName);

Log.d("TAG", "Launch Activity :"+ pm.getLaunchIntentForPackage(packageInfo.packageName));

}

i get irrelevant info in my activity ("ApplicationInfi{41d67898 android}") from the ApplicationInfo when using:

setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter(this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,packages);

Do you know what i need to replace with 'packages' in that line to get:

Application name

package name

icon

thank you!
