Hi Chris ,
Thanks for the reply it worked pretty well.
The /data folder in the android file system has the default application
folder where the application specific read write happens
they generally looks like this :
"*/data/data/my.package.name/<app_my custom folder>/*
** directory=getDir("fodlername", Context.MODE_WORLD_WRITEABLE |
Context.MODE_WORLD_READABLE);
and this directory has been used to do the file ops.
*Also if I want to the same in the SD card is there any way to gain the
permission and then do it on that.ideally once the permission is gained we
can do the normal file operation just like i did above for the android file
system*
Thanks ,
Rgds,
saurabh
