What happens to the files in File.applicationStorageDirectory after the new version of the app?

Hello

I was wondering what is going on for files that have been stored in File.applicationStorageDirectory after an update the app (= new version)?

I assumed / hoped that the files were still there... However, after the update my application to a new version, it apparently does NOT access the same files (it seems to me that the file was missing, so a new was created).

(background: all my application user data is stored in an XML file in the directory above (so to speak my database) - it is therefore crucial that a new version will access the same files (for example, after an update of an Android application))

All advice appreciated!

good point, Peter. the problem is not really resolved however (RIM working on it, or has a good (not too much) solution to offer). However, the issue is quite covered in this thread:

  • What happens with the app that I do not install now?

    What happens with the app that I do not install now? It will be available 1 year from the moment I am installing? Because I only need to photoshop and Illustrator now, but next year, I will work with inDesing. I have not yet installed inDesign and wish that, when I install it the next year it will be available 1 year. I bought the cloud creative adobe and I only install Photoshop and Illustrator now.

    Thank you

    In addition:

    Membership begins when you buy instead during installation. All applications are on the same schedule and will expire and renew at the same time.

  • What happened to the apps

    I was wondering what happened to 'video zone' and 'facebook for android '.

    now I'm thinking that the video box developers do not support 1.5 more. at least his party 1.5 market but on my htc hero friends and I think that those who run on 2.1 not really sure if.

    but facebook for android really? What happened to it, I installed it, but someone was going to the market and asked me if I could check and I did. (being the nice guy that I am = P) and low and behold it is no longer available for download?

    I guess Im just a little confused.

    One last thing is that someone tried the merger called feature (located in the options when in a call). Im guessing it is just another way of say 3 way calling. Anyone used or know what it is and what it does?

    Thanks for the comments.

    Yes Facebook for Android is no longer supported by phones Android 1.5. Your phone will need to obtain an upgrade to be able to update the application.

  • What happens to my creative cloud membership adobe releases a new version of CS products

    The membership will continue if adobe shared say a 6.5 CS or CS7? I really want to join the cloud and benefit from not having to buy everything and I like the idea but I'm worried that when adobe releases a new version of CS I might get screwed and have to pay more.

    Yes.

    It is one of the benefits of membership cloud: all upgrades are included as long as you keep paying your monthly fees.

    When you stop paying, you lose the use of all software.

  • What happens to the files in the applicationStorageDirectory of my users when I download an update for my iOS Ap

    I have an iPad app that is sold in the iOS App Store. I use File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath to save XML files locally to the user iPad (stuff like high scores of the user during playback in offline mode).

    What happens to these files for my users if I download a new update of the app from the App Store? Will be they are deleted because the update is a new installation of the application, or they will be left alone?

    hehehe, that was one of my first questions I had when I started to build air for mobile applications. The answer is; your binary will be updated, BUT all of your application files saved dynamically will be still, whenever you save anything from your application, it is stored in a place related to your app ID (com.yourappname.blah.blah) which is removed only when the user removes the application from the device, if it persists even if you submit a new binary to the store and the user updates. Does make sense? I do the same thing on traffic wonder and it worked seamlessly when I did a small update from 1.0.0 to 1.0.1 (compatibility ipad3) version, so no worries, unless your new binary reads the old data in a different way

  • What happened to the insertion function. It was on the same line as file

    What happened to the insertion function? It was on the same line as the files, tools, etc. He's gone. If you want to insert a jpg you sent as an attachment. I have read through the help files and that you can't find the answer. I want my old Thunderbird back! Newer is not always better.

    I suspect that you have lost the Mail composition toolbar. Open an entry window, press and hold the < alt > key, type v and check the box for the mail toolbar. I would also allow the Menu bar while you are there.

    Another possibility, if the Insert option is missing in the mail toolbar, is that it is spent in composition in plain text mode. Open the settings page of the account assigned by right-clicking on the account in the left pane, select Composition & addressing and tick the box labelled "Dial using the HTML format".

  • What happened to the bar that says 'file, edit' etc.? How can I change the font size to display Hotmail? Where can I access 'Cancel '? Thank you-

    How can I access the toolbar which includes "file, print" etc.? How can I change the font size of my hotmail home page? It used to be using "display".

    In Firefox 3.6 and later Windows, you can hide the menu bar on "view > toolbars" or via the contextual right click menu on a toolbar.
    Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key to bring up the menu bar temporarily.
    Go to "view > toolbars", right click on the menu bar, or press Alt + V T to select to show or hide toolbars (click on an entry to switch from the State).

  • What happens to a file at the end of playback of a file reference?

    Question general file IO.

    If I'm reading a binary file and the read operation reaches the end of this file, what happens to the file reference?  It exist in memory at this time, or is he out once labview publishes the end of file error?

    I coded a "departure" from playback and functionality 'stop' and the 'Stop' button is the only method in place for the closing of the reading file reference.  Immediate sights are

    (a) what is happening to the reference of the file once the read operation reaches the end of the file

    (b) it is important that I have never close the reference of the file once the user clicks on 'stop '?  (i.e. is it a best practice out there?)

    I'm under Labview 8.6 on Vista Business.

    The file reference is valid when you reach the end of the file. Each read operation returns an error, but you can write to this location. Writing will succeed because it's normal when you add data to a file.

    Close the reference when the user types stop is OK. If you implement a Replay button that you just need to reposition the pointer at the beginning of the file file and read again. This avoids the need to close and reopen the case.

    Because you will lose the lot, you will need to restore from your external backup. If you do not back up your files regularly then it is a good time to review your backup strategy.

    You can always back up your files to boot the machine with a Ubuntu boot CD. Unfortunately, it is much more difficult than restoring from a backup disk.

    You will always have access to your projects and your property all partners. If the versions change before re - activate, you can either update your project (s) to be compatible with this new version, otherwise install an older version. Your membership of limitation in this mode is a form of use of the perfectly valid CC and is one of the biggest advantages of the model of the subscription, IMO.
