Hi there! My crashalytics shows me 2 type of issues related to ES3
1)Access to the path "/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.myapp.id/files/SaveData.es3" is denied (should i get WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission ?)
I think it could be useful to show you my AndroidManifest
Code: Select all
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

</application>
</manifest>
2)Sharing violation on path /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.myapp.id/files/SaveData.es3
Could you give me some advises how to solve these problems?
Thanks.

Hi there,
The first issue is because Unity's Application.persistentDataPath is not writable. You would unfortunately need to contact Unity regarding this as the location and access of the persistent data path is controlled entirely at their end. I believe the main cause of this issue is usually because the user has denied the app permissions to write data.
With regards to the sharing violation, I've not seen this issue. Would it be possible to send more information regarding this? For example, is there a full stack trace? This will only usually happen if you're running Easy Save in multiple threads at once and trying to access the same file, or another piece of software is trying to access the file at the same time.
All the best,
Joel

1)From docs we know that "Starting in API level 19, this permission is not required to read/write files in your application-specific directories returned by Context.getExternalFilesDir(String) and Context.getExternalCacheDir()." My devices:Nexus 5, PIxel 3a, Lenovo tab work well without any permissions granted. Just curios why this is happening with devices on Android 7,8,9 which have api bigger, than 19.
Could you advice storing method with 100% reliability (from ES3 options) ?
BTW, today i've got new one
Code: Select all
Win32 IO returned 997. Path: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.meappid.test/files/SaveData.es3

Hi there,
You might want to try setting the storage location to PlayerPrefs by going to Window > Easy Save 3 > Settings, and changing the save location from there. This will store the data in SharedPreferences on Android, which should be less susceptible to permission errors.
With regards to the errors, you would need to contact Unity regarding these as the specific file IO and Application.persistentDataPath is managed at their end, so they are the only ones able to debug this code, and will also be able to tell you about the permissions that they grant during their build process.
All the best,
Joel

At this moment it is File->Persistent Data Path. What should i use? Player prefs? Will it be reliable for iOS? And how to transfer data from Persistent Data Path to PlayerPrefs for old users with data, already saved in Persistent Data Path?

Hi there,
PlayerPrefs is the option you should use if you want the data to be stored there.
If you want to transfer the data from persistent data path to PlayerPrefs, you can do something along the lines of this:
var fileSettings = new ES3Settings();
fileSettings.location = ES3.Location.File;
var playerPrefsSettings = new ES3Settings();
playerPrefsSettings.location = ES3.Location.PlayerPrefs;
if(ES3.FileExists("myFile.es3", fileSettings))
{
var data = ES3.LoadRawString("myFile.es3", fileSettings);
ES3.SaveRaw(data, "myFile.es3", playerPrefsSettings);
}
All the best,
Joel

Thanks! If i am using this approach
https://docs.moodkie.com/easy-save-3/es ... g-es3file/, will this access speed to param as fast as local var, so i can use it in cycle?

Hi there,
It will be as fast as accessing a Dictionary item, which should be perfectly fine to use in a cycle.
All the best,
Joel
