Get a list of all installed applications on Blackberry

Question

Is it possible to get a list of all applications installed in a Blackberry, similar to the applications list when you go into your settings.

I can get a list of all visible applications using the following but I was wondering if it's possible to get a list of apps that aren't necessarily running but are installed,

ApplicationDescriptor[] descriptors = 
    ApplicationManager.getApplicationManager().getVisibleApplications();

You can use:

net.rim.device.api.system.CodeModuleManager.getModuleHandles()

To get an array of handles into all modules, and:

net.rim.device.api.system.CodeModuleManager
    .getApplicationDescriptors(int moduleHandle)

To get ApplicationDescriptors associated with the module. You will have to sort out which modules are libraries and which are applications.

You get the name from the array of ApplicationDescriptors returned by getApplicationDescriptors(). – Richard Jun 18 '12 at 21:24
