getExternalStorageDir() [1/2]

static File com.google.appinventor.components.runtime.util.QUtil.getExternalStorageDir ( Context  context )

static

Get the SDK-specific external storage directory. On Android Q and later, this is always an app-private directory on the "external" storage. On earlier versions of Android, this returns the external storage path for all apps (although possibly user-specific). If the

forcePrivate 

flag is true, then the app-private directory will always be returned on devices running Android 2.2 Froyo or later.

For more details on why this is needed, see the deprecation notice at https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Environment#getExternalStorageDirectory()

Parameters

context

a context, such as a Form

Returns

the path to the app's shared storage.

Definition at line 72 of file QUtil.java.

getExternalStorageDir() [2/2]
