Hello, I'm facing an issue with ContextImpl.java's getExternalFilesDir method. (Link: http://grepcode.com/file/repository.grepcode.com/java/ext/com.google.android/android/4.0.3_r1/android/app/ContextImpl.java#ContextImpl.getExternalFilesDir%28java.lang.String%29 )
This method looks at whether the /sdcard/Android/data/<package-name>/ directory exists for a given package. If not, it first tries to create a .nomedia file at /sdcard/Android/data and then calls mkdirs() to create /sdcard/Android/data/<package-name>/files. The issue is that when it tries to create .nomedia file the first time, /sdcard/Android directory does not exist and this call fails. The next mkdirs() call to create the package's folder succeeds and further calls to this method (from other packages) create the .nomedia file correctly. Is this a bug? Can I change the order of lines in ContextImpl.java so that the directories are created first and then the .nomedia file? Or should something else be creating the /sdcard/Android/data directory before an app can invoke this getExternalFilesDir() method?
