I am new to android programming and I am trying to write strings into a
text file without overwriting the previous one. It is somehow like a
history log of the application. I tried reading online guide but it doesnt
seem to write in to my text file. Can anyone advice me on this? My empty
text file name logs is inside src/main/assets folder. Everytime the
saveText function is called, it successfully prompt the Toast that shows
the string of the saveText, so I wonder why it did not write into the logs
textfile.
public void saveText(){
int seconds;
FileOutputStream outputStream;
String saveText;
long elapsedMillis = SystemClock.elapsedRealtime() - mChronometer.getBase();
seconds = (int) (elapsedMillis / 1000);
try {
outputStream = openFileOutput("logs", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
saveText = String.valueOf(seconds);
outputStream.write(saveText.getBytes());
outputStream.close();
Toast.makeText(this, saveText, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} catch (Throwable t){
Toast.makeText(this, "Exception: " + t.toString(),
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}}
Android Manifest:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
<activity android:name=".MainActivity">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity android:name=".GameActivity" />
<activity android:name=".EndActivity" /></application>
