I'm using a Mac, not Windows, and I have similar problems. My assets are not appearing at all in the listings.

In my project, my "assets" dir is at the same level as res, src, and AndroidManifest.xml.

Bug 1: I've tried putting my file in "assets/myfile.png" as well as "assets/subdir/myfile.png". It's not visible to mgr.list(""), mgr.list("/"), mgr.list("assets"), nor mgr.list("/assets").

Bug 2: The strings returned by mgr.list(path) which describe directories do not contain "/", contrary to the specification.

Using a revised version of the above code posted by Rui:

void displayFiles (AssetManager mgr, String path) { try { String list[] = mgr.list(path); if (list != null) for (int i=0; i<list.length; ++i) { Log.v("Assets:", path +"/"+ list[i]); displayFiles(mgr, path + list[i]); } } catch (IOException e) { Log.v("List error:", "can't list" + path); } }

AssetManager mgr = new AssetManager(); displayFiles(mgr, "/");

prints:

V/Assets: (13257): //AndroidManifest.xml V/Assets: (13257): //META-INF V/Assets: (13257): //assets V/Assets: (13257): //res V/Assets: (13257): //resources.arsc

displayFiles(mgr, "");

prints:

displayFiles(mgr, "");

prints:
