I have an app which at onCreate function, it creates a folder on the sd
card. The code looks like this:
File externalStorage = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
mExternalStorageLocation = externalStorage.getAbsolutePath();
File appDirectory = new File(mExternalStorageLocation + "myApp");
if(!logDirectory.exists()) {
makeDirs(logDirectory);
}
Then in the app, there are data saved in that directory.
Once in while, I get report that that when this app is updated, or uninstalled
and reinstalled, the files in that directory is lost. I am not sure what could
cause this issue. Any ideas? What's the best practice for creating folders so
it can be kept even if the app is uninstalled.
Any help would be appreciated.
