Thanks for the suggestion. It's provided the clue that will let me
work around the problem. But for the record, calling
getAbsolutePath() isn't changing the result: I still get different
paths on the two (identical) devices:
Code:
Utils.logf( "launchGame(%s)", path );
File file = new File( path );
Utils.logf( "file: %s", file.getAbsolutePath() );
One log:
D/XW4 (25851): [09:57:35]-1-launchGame(Game 1.xwg)
D/XW4 (25851): [09:57:35]-1-file: /Game 1.xwg
The other log:
D/XW4 ( 5102): [09:56:26]-1-launchGame(Game 1.xwg)
D/XW4 ( 5102): [09:56:26]-1-file: /data/data/
com.lge.providers.flex/databases/Game 1.xwg
It's the same if I use getCanonicalPath().
Thanks,
