It seems to be a contradiction in docs:
To write to a file, call Context.openFileOutput() with the name and path.
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/data/data-storage.html#files
The name of the file to open; can not contain path separators.
[url]
And when I call
this.openFileOutput("foo/bar.txt", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
exception is thrown:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: File foo/bar.txt contains a path separator

I am new to Android and creating my first application.I want to create a file in the current directory. Basically I have a file bundled with aplication package as raw resource. I want to make a copy of this file in the current file. The reason to create copy in current directory is that I want my file reading code in native java, portable code.So my query is how can I create a file on current directory? The location current directory is important here as I do not want to make use of device specific hardcoded path or any Android API while reading the file. This is so I want my file reading code portable.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhat I need to do with my Incredible is so simple and I am really amazed that this phone's photo application is as bad as it is. I have about 100 photos. I need to put them into individual folders or albums (I just need a way to separate them). I have tried everything but it does not appear as though the Incredible has this capability. I did a search and found some instructions using Astro file manager however this did not work for me. Therefore, is there any decent apps out there that will allow me to create folders (or albums) and put pics into them? I also need to somehow backup the photos (probably directly off of the SD card onto my PC).

My application has requirements to store or edit the file data in the file which is available in Raw folder. Can some one tell me how it is possible ?
I want to store the audio data in mp3 file which is available in res folder.
I have an application with a lot of media data (images and videos) that were previously stored on the sdcard. With that, images and videos are displayed fine in my app.
Now, in order to secure the content more, I wanted to move the content to the internal storage / data dir of the app, which I did. I copied all media with a routine within my app to the data folder (/data/data/com.myapp/some/folders/video.mp4) and adjusted the path in my app so that it would look for the media in the internal storage data directory and not the sdcard anymore.
Everything works fine, images are being displayed (decoded) properly, but videos don't play. They files do exist though - I do not get a FileNotFound exception. But an IOException: java.io.IOException: Prepare failed.: status=0xFFFFFFFC
Why is that? Everything is handled within my one app and the videos have been copied with the same routine as the images, thus having the same permission settings. Looking at the stack trace, it all runs in process id 18060).
Why I cannot playback the video from internal storage? Or how can I?
