我应该删除 Android 应用程序内部存储器中的文件吗？

Question

My Android Emulator is not working on my computer, for the time being I am testing my app on real devices. Here is my question.

I am saving some text as a text file (let us name it as data.txt ) in the App's internal memory. I will share this file with certain apps on the installed device.

The data needs to be saved to the file at frequent intervals (say twice a day). Each time the data is saved under the same file name ( data.txt ).

I am using FileProvider to share the file with other applications.

So here is the scenario. 1st set of data is saved under data.txt . Should I delete this file after sharing? so that the 2nd set of data gets saved under the same file name or does the application takes care of this issue automatically (by simply replacing the file data.txt containing 1st data with the file data.txt containing the 2nd data)?

Answer 1

Data will be overwritten in file when u will write in the code if u look at the constructor of FileOutputStream(String path, boolean append) the Boolean value is to handle either you want to append the file or overwrite the existing file(by default this value is false means it will surely overwrite data ) . So i don't think there is a need to delete your file
