where is "/data/data/<app>" directory?

[canellas]

Hi,

An app I am developing has to create a file. I am using QFileDialog::getSaveFileName() to define the directory, and it suggests "/data/data/org.qtproject.example.my_app/files/". Does anyone know where this directory is really located in the Android file system?

Thanks!

Hi,

This path seems to be more a generic value then a real directory. IMHO (on android) the user shouldnt select the directory to write to. Maybe its better to use:

QString pathToDir = QStandardPaths::writableLocation(QStandardPaths::AppDataLocation);

and append the file name.

Thanks for your answer!

I did not intend to let the user choose the directory, but as I was having trouble in defining the path, specially because did not know QStandardsPath (!!), I was trying other ways to set it.

Indeed, the statement you wrote is just what I needed. Thanks a lot!

Now I can eliminate the cause of "file not found" for why the audio file recorded by the user is not being played back.

Thanks!
