Mahendra/String,
Thank You for your reply on this. The problem was with the following code as
pointed correctly by you folks
String state = Environment.getExternalStorageState();
if(state != Environment.MEDIA_MOUNTED) {
Log.d("DEBUG", "The Card is Not Mounted " + state +"--");
throw new IOException ("SD Card is not Mounted. It is in " +
state);
After hardcoding the path as per the code below (pointed by Mahendra) I'm
able to write the file onto the SD Card and see the same in DDMS
/sdcard/somefilename
I think this problem is only with Emulator as mentioned in Emulator
Limitations in Android Docs->Tools->Emulator.
Further Questions
1. Would the code like Environment.getExternalStorageState.....etc work when
using the actual device.
2. Would the path name like /sdcard be the same when connected to the actual
device.
Thanks & Best Regards
Acer
