LiveCode Forums.

I'm testing my mobile app on a phisical device.

In this app I save a file in this path: Where should I find this file? I can't find it in the device.

In the stand alone application settings i leave Identifier as "com.yourcompany.yourapp" and label is "censimento Filiere"

thank you!

Attentione, amico mio!
ALWAYS use SLASH as pathdelimiter inside of LC: This should be found inside of the app package on the device, because of "sandboxing" every app has its own "documents" folder!

ok, but the backslash works correctly on windows.

But the most important thing is, I'm using the device to test. So the app is not "installed" in the device.
Should it has his own folder the same? I've used total commander to search for a folder that could contain my app but i didn't find it

Maybe you should first tell me what we are talking about Android or iOS?

Android! ☺
On a nexus 4 with 5.0.1 installed

Hi gepponline

I've just recently moved back to developing for Android after a long spell with iOS and I too wanted an independent way to check/test file locations on Android (see http://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=23503) - but without rooting your device (btw I'm also testing on a nexus4 - such a nice piece of kit) you won't be able to see it even with apps like total commander. You can check for the existence of folders and files within the app 'sandbox' with LiveCode just fine which I think we have to be satisfied with...

Good luck!

The app's documents folder is stored in data/data/ on Android and is only accessible if you have root access.
