This is a simple question but I can't find anything by searching this group: is there any way of creating world readable files within subdirectories? I'm producing an app widget that includes an ImageView. To supply the image data I'm serving pngs from a content provider. I do it this way to avoid the overhead of stuffing bitmaps into the remote views. I thought I could make this even more efficient by simply letting the widget host access the png files directly - that way the home app won't need to spin-up my application when the remote view is instantiated only to pull out a file descriptor. This means making the files world readable.
At the same time I really want to avoid dumping the files into the root of my application's files directory and instead want a subdirectory so that typical file management tasks are simpler. But I can't see a way of doing both, have I missed something obvious?
