Hi all,

My app stores files on external storage under a folder I create with the 
following code:

new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(), "/trc_prl/bundle");

One of my testers has noticed that sometimes when he goes to clean up 
external storage to begin testing from a clean device he will sometimes see 
"duplicates" of the folders I create with periods instead of underscores, 
for example "/mnt/sdcard/trc.prl/bundle".

I've looked through my code and I see no possible means of an error in the 
directory spelling, the only thing that looks like "trc.prl" is the package 
name of the app itself.

Has anyone seen this before that can tell me what's happening exactly?  Is 
this Android's version of Microsoft's method of preventing duplicate file 
names (e.g. FIle(1), File(2), etc...)?

Thanks!

Rob
