# vendors/file_utils — in-house asset-read helper Not third-party: a small in-house C helper kept under vendors/ because it ships as a `#import c` unit like the rest. - `read_file_bytes(path, *out_size)` — whole-file read, malloc'd bytes. - On Android, paths rooted inside the APK resolve through the `AAssetManager` installed via `sx_android_set_asset_manager` (modules/platform/android.sx calls it during activity startup; the hook only exists in the `__ANDROID__` build of the unit).
