[android-developers] Re: is there a way to put entire folder from "assets" to sdcard? not just individual files.

Here's a snippet from my sample pack installers

in my installers I have assets in a folder called "samples"

private void CopyFiles(String dir)
{

try
{
String [] filelist = am.list("samples/" + dir);

for (int count = 0; count < filelist.length; count++)
{

if (WasError == true) break;

String currfile = filelist[count];

AssetFileDescriptor af = am.openFd("samples/" + dir + "/" +
currfile);
long filesize = af.getLength();
InputStream is = am.open("samples/" + dir + "/" + currfile,
am.ACCESS_BUFFER);

byte [] tempdata = new byte[(int)filesize];

is.read(tempdata);

is.close();

if (IsNewVersion == true)
{
File outfile = new File("/sdcard/electrum/samples/" +
PACK_NAME + "/" + dir,currfile);
outfile.createNewFile();

FileOutputStream fo = new FileOutputStream(outfile);
fo.write(tempdata);
fo.close();
}
else
{
File outfile = new File("/sdcard/electrum/
samples/",currfile);
outfile.createNewFile();

FileOutputStream fo = new FileOutputStream(outfile);
fo.write(tempdata);
fo.close();

}

}

}

catch(Exception e)
{
WasError = true;

ErrMessage = e.getMessage();

PostHandler.post(ShowMsg);
PostHandler.post(DoneMsg);

}

}
