Remarks

StorageManager is the interface to the systems storage service. The storage manager handles storage-related items such as Opaque Binary Blobs (OBBs).

OBBs contain a filesystem that maybe be encrypted on disk and mounted on-demand from an application. OBBs are a good way of providing large amounts of binary assets without packaging them into APKs as they may be multiple gigabytes in size. However, due to their size, they're most likely stored in a shared storage pool accessible from all programs. The system does not guarantee the security of the OBB file itself: if any program modifies the OBB, there is no guarantee that a read from that OBB will produce the expected output.

Constructors

StorageManager(IntPtr, JniHandleOwnership)

A constructor used when creating managed representations of JNI objects; called by the runtime.

Fields

ActionClearAppCache

Activity Action: Allows the user to free up space by clearing app external cache directories.

ActionManageStorage

Activity Action: Allows the user to manage their storage.

ExtraRequestedBytes

Extra used to indicate the total size (in bytes) that an application is interested in allocating.

ExtraUuid

Extra UUID used to indicate the storage volume where an application is interested in allocating or managing disk space.
