problem while working with RMS

[amishra]

hi,

When working with RMS I encountered a problem. When i save the record its saved and when i read it i can read it. But once i compile my application again and try to read the data, the old data is lost, and i can't access that again.

I have a scenario where I save a record when a button is pressed. I need that record i future, but the data is not stored permanently in the midlet. I am trying that in midlet, is this because of midlet ?? or do i need to anything else beside this??

is there anyway of maintaining records in the files permanently in mobile phone??

Looking for reply.

Thanks

Hello amishra,

do you encounter this when use your MIDlet? Or do you re-install your MIDlet after each compile and this problem appears because of this?

In addition to RMS, you could use FileConnection API (JSR-75) for storing info in files:

hi,

I just re-compiled and run it, i did nothing beside this, before this used to work fine... but i faced this problem only today.

Thanks for the next option i will have a look at it.

Thank you.

Hi Amishra,

on which emulator are you experiencing this behaviour/issue?

RMS does not work properly on emulators!
WTK keeps them unless you delete them. SDK emulator discards them.

hi amishra,
Actually in WTK data is stored in a .db file which is treated as a RMS for emulator; every rms is associated with its Midlet suit.
Whenever you re compiling ur application, suit is updating, that may be the reason.
Also check method openRecordStore(,); where second parameter should be true.
