It's possible there's some code somewhere that does that but I'm unaware of this. Since this literally replaces the order of the roots it should be OK. To be fair this isn't a use case we thought of when we built this behavior so I might be missing something.
This is the code that handles this: https://github.com/codenameone/CodenameOne/blob/master/Ports/iOSPort/src/com/codename1/impl/ios/IOSImplementation.java#L7594 And also this: https://github.com/codenameone/CodenameOne/blob/master/Ports/iOSPort/src/com/codename1/impl/ios/IOSImplementation.java#L7691 On Wednesday, June 9, 2021 at 10:11:41 PM UTC+3 P5music wrote: > Do you know if > ios.newStorageLocation=false > is overidden in some cases? > For example for some iOS versions. > I am testing with iOS 12, along with some other versions, and it seems > that for iOS 12 the cn1storage folder is created even with that build hint. > Does it make sense to you?
