I'm writing an image to the external storage directory using an android app, but it is not being refreshed. I have looked at some other people's problems ( eg 1, 2 and 3 ) and I can't solve my problem; basically, the folder doesn't get refreshed until I come out out and close down my "folder view". Starting it up again refreshes the view and shows the newly placed images.
Here's my code:
String timeStamp = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMdd_HHmmss").format(new Date());
String imageFileName = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()+ "/" + timeStamp + "_original.jpg";
OutputStream fout = null;
File imageFile = new File(imageFileName);
try {
fout = new FileOutputStream(imageFile);
croppedbitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 95, fout);
fout.flush();
fout.close();
//Toast.makeText(this, "Success", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} catch (Exception e) {
}
MediaScannerConnection.scanFile(this, imageFileName, null,
new MediaScannerConnection.OnScanCompletedListener() {
public void onScanCompleted(String path, Uri uri)
{
}
});
I'm guessing that its something to do with a mismatch between the filename and the path, but I am not familiar with the use of the mediascanner on android. Can someone please help? Thanks.
