I know this should be easy to find via google, but I can’t seem to get the right phrasing for my search… I want to save text files to the SD card to be used as saved games and saved settings, then be able to load them… but I just can’t find any useful information…
I’m after a simple format… lines with text strings, integers, floats and such…
If anyone could write an example, link a tutorial or just point me in the right direction; it would be very helpful.
If it helps, I’m using FroYo 2.2.1 and mainly using the SDK through eclipse to compile.
Sounds like you need SharedPreferences. These are (oddly enough) preferences that can be saved and persisted to a secure area within Android that no other app can access.
A good tutorial with screenshots can be found here http://www.slideshare.net/androidstream/sharedpreferences-tutorial
