unable to create new directory in tizen 2.3

Hi all,

i am using Mkdir() to create a directory in sdcard but every time it is giving -1 as return value i want to create a directory in external sdcard

i am using app_get_shared_data_path() to get the shared data path .
i want to share my files with other apps so i am using app_get_shared_data_path()

i am able to create the directory with app_get_data_path()

please help me in solving the issue 

Regards
Harish

Hi,
+1
I was able to create directory on sdcard using mkdir() only in /opt/storage/sdcard/ root folder on Z1 custom device (not official) . Before this I have switched device into root account mode using 'sdb root on' (also I have added http://tizen.org/privilege/externalstorage in manifest)
I tried with paths returned from app_get_external_data_path & app_get_external_shared_data_path but no effect.

But I was able to create with mkdir() folder inside /opt/usr/media (with http://tizen.org/privilege/mediastorage in manifest) or inside folder returned with app_get_data_path() on all devices.

Please declar http://tizen.org/privilege/externalstorage.appdata privilge in your manifest file then you can create directory in the data folder in the sdcard

Bogon Kim

You should declare both

http://tizen.org/privilege/externalstorage

http://tizen.org/privilege/externalstorage.appdata

Hi,
Thank you for info. Really we need both. During attempts I tried to add privileges separately but was not success to create.
It will be good to mention this fact somewhere in dev guide explicitly.
