Recursive directory creation fails on device
2
My code runs in the simulator, but crashes on Android with a FileNotFoundException as it tries to FileSystemStorage#openOutputStream in an non-existing directory. I create all the needed directories recursively before using
private void ensureParentDirs(String file)
final int j = file.lastIndexOf("/");
final String s = file.substring(0, j);
if (storage.isDirectory(s)) return;
storage.mkdir(s);
if (storage.isDirectory(s)) return;
ensureParentDirs(s);
storage.mkdir(s);
if (storage.isDirectory(s)) return;
Log.p("Cannot create directory: " + s);
which is supposed to work like new File(file).getParentFile().mkdirs(). It might be wrong, but then it shouldn't run in the simulator either, so I'd call it a bug.
I get the message
Cannot create directory:
file:///data/user/0/my.package.name/files//dump/000/abcd
but the parent directory ("000") has been successfully created. Using adb shell, I can create the directory using
mkdir /data/data/my.package.name/files/dump/000/abcd
so I can't see what's wrong. Any idea?

Why are you invokingmkdir()and notmkdirs()? Notice the method returns a boolean if the operation was successful. What did it return?

@ShaiAlmog There's nomkdirsin yourcom.codename1.io.FileSystemStorageandmkdirisvoid. I guess, you meanFile, but that's not what I'm using. I guess, I should, but that's the third thing (I started withStorage).+++I see, I can useFSSwithFileeasily.... however, what I'm doing doesn't look much different frommkdirs.

Does it work when you don't have the double slash (... files//dump ...)?

@Henry I didn't try... I know I should, but I've already spent too much time on this. I was thinking about it, but....files//dumpcould be created, so double slashes in general should work. And in the meantime, I rewrote the code (for unrelated reasons....).

@ShaiAlmog It looks like there was a problem with doubles slashes as Henry assumed.
