fix for CB-6872
This Pull Request fix CB-6872
the free space available wasn't returning the right value, so when you
request the file system with a high value it fails with QUOTA_EXCEEDED_ERR
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-6872
var requestBytes = 300 * 1024 * 1024; // 300MB
window.requestFileSystem(LocalFileSystem.PERSISTENT, requestBytes,
function(fs) {
alert("success");
}, function (e) {
// error callback
alert("error");
});
This code was failing on my ipod touch 32GB with 7+GB free, and now I can
request the 7GB
The problem is, checking the free space doesn't return the actual available
free space when you use the root path "/",
you have to use another path instead, like self.rootDocsPath (documents
folder path) to get the actual free available space. I tried some other paths
and all of them worked ("/var", "/var/mobile/") but used self.rootDocsPath
because it was already declared on the code so I didn't have to hardcode a path.
With paths like "/", "/etc" it returns the same wrong value.
