How is the size of cache and data calculated in the application properties?
I save all my data to the SD card, but Android shows me that I’m constantly using 4 KB, but on the SD card are about 50 KB. The same with the cache! I put a 3 MB picture in there. But my cache size is zero!
I think I’m using the correct directory: /mnt/sdcard/Android/data/my.package.name/files and /mnt/sdcard/Android/data/my.package.name/cache.
Has this changed in Android 4.0.x?
See this screenshot:
I believe the Cache size is the size of the Internal Cache directory that is returned by http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Context.html#getCacheDir()
I think you’ve used:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Context.html#getExternalCacheDir()
