I'm trying to create file at /sdcard/foobar.tmp from one package that
needs to be readable by another package. This works fine on the
emulator. However, on the G1, if I create the file in package A, then
try to read it in package B, the request fails - even tho both
packages are signed by the same certificate. I create the file from
Package A with:
File myFile = new File("/sdcard/foobar.tmp");
myFile.createNewFile();
FileOutputStream fOut = new FileOutputStream(myFile);
String sMofi = "some text";
fOut.write(sMofi.getBytes());
fOut.flush();
fOut.close();
To see if the file exists from Package B, I use:
File myFile = new File("/sdcard/foobar.tmp");
if (myFile.isFile())
{
bTempFile = true;
}
myFile.isFile() - returns false - I can see the file using ddms with
permissions: ----rw-rw-
Why does isFile fail? I cannot use Context.openFileOutput() because
that creates a file relative to package A - and B doesn't know where
package A is...
Is there a way to create a file at /sdcard/foobar.tmp and have any
package be able to read or write it?
