Files storage locations

[jim416]

I would like to add functionality to my phone where it maintains its settings.
I understand that saving to a file somewhere on the filesystem is an option.

What are the paths for filesystem objects on S40s?
What would the paths be for onboard storage versus SD card storage?


Also, instead of saving to a text file, is there a sort of settings repository or registry for s40 devices?

Your help is appreciated.

1. For this I will recommend you not to use the hard code path and get the path using the code to have the dynamic and exact path.
For this I would suggest you to use the PDAP demo available in the WTK app folder,use this application and you will be having the complete information that you might need.

2.Read the JSR 75 FileConnection API, for more information

3.Please explain.

You cannot play around with any such thing on S40, it would not be reachable from your J2me App;, the best way will be to store such info as key,value pairs (delimitered string) in RMS as sepertae records. And read then in a Hashtable at the start of the app; to provide random & instant access to any proprerty.
