How to write to the phone directory

[myuuuu]

Hi, I do not know what is the path to write to my N95, I tried this but it doesn't work.
fp.Create(iFileServer,_L("c:\\data\\images\\Pictures\\temp.txt"),EFileWrite);

so I found this code,

TFileName path = PathInfo::PhoneMemoryRootPath();
path.Append( PathInfo::ImagesPath() );

However, I do not know how to add the filename to it and write it to the image directory. Please help. Thank you.

TInt errCode = fp.Create(iFileServer,_L("c:\\data\\images\\Pictures\\temp.txt"),EFileWrite);

and see the value of errCode.
If it is KErrNone, do the following:
1. Write something to the file.
2. Close the file fp.Close();

and now check if the file is created !

hope this helps !

To append the filename:

TFileName path = PathInfo::PhoneMemoryRootPath();
path.Append( PathInfo::ImagesPath() );
_LIT(KMyFile, "temp.txt");
path.Append(KMyFile);

To create a file and write to it:

TInt err = fp.Create(iFileServer, path, EFileWrite | EFileShareAny);
if (!err)
{
    _LIT8(KTempString, "This is a temp string.");
    fp.Write(KTempString);
    fp.Close();
}

Hi. Thank you for the help. However, the file is still not created in my phone but works on my emulator.

This is my code:

TFileName path = PathInfo::PhoneMemoryRootPath();
path.Append( PathInfo::ImagesPath() );
path.Append(_L("mytest.txt"));

//_L("c:\\data\\images\\Pictures\\mytest.txt")
RFs iFileServer;
User::LeaveIfError(iFileServer.Connect());
RFile fp;
TInt err = fp.Open(iFileServer,path,EFileWrite);
if(err !=KErrNone)
fp.Create(iFileServer,path,EFileWrite);
TInt pos=0 ;
fp.Seek(ESeekEnd,pos);

//_LIT8(KData,"Hi");
//fp.Write(KData);
fp.Close();
iFileServer.Close();

Do I need to print out the error myself or will it automatically generate an error code? If I need to print it out. How can I do so?

This is how you can see the error code (the simplest way in your case):

TInt err = fp.Open(iFileServer,path,EFileWrite);
if(err !=KErrNone)
    err = fp.Create(iFileServer,path,EFileWrite);
TBuf<32> errBuf;
errBuf.Format(_L("Error code: %d"), err);
User::InfoPrint(errBuf);
