StorageManager.AllocateBytes Method

Definition

Overloads

AllocateBytes(FileDescriptor, Int64)

Allocate the requested number of bytes for your application to use in the given open file.

AllocateBytes(UUID, Int64)

Allocate the requested number of bytes for your application to use on the given storage volume.

AllocateBytes(FileDescriptor, Int64)

Allocate the requested number of bytes for your application to use in the given open file.

[Android.Runtime.Register("allocateBytes", "(Ljava/io/FileDescriptor;J)V", "GetAllocateBytes_Ljava_io_FileDescriptor_JHandler", ApiSince=26)]
public virtual void AllocateBytes (Java.IO.FileDescriptor? fd, long bytes);
[<Android.Runtime.Register("allocateBytes", "(Ljava/io/FileDescriptor;J)V", "GetAllocateBytes_Ljava_io_FileDescriptor_JHandler", ApiSince=26)>]
abstract member AllocateBytes : Java.IO.FileDescriptor * int64 -> unit
override this.AllocateBytes : Java.IO.FileDescriptor * int64 -> unit

Parameters

fd
FileDescriptor

the open file that you'd like to allocate disk space for.

bytes
Int64

the number of bytes to allocate. This is the desired final size of the open file. If the open file is smaller than this requested size, it will be extended without modifying any existing contents. If the open file is larger than this requested size, it will be truncated.

Attributes

Remarks

Allocate the requested number of bytes for your application to use in the given open file. This will cause the system to delete any cached files necessary to satisfy your request.

Attempts to allocate disk space beyond the value returned by #getAllocatableBytes(UUID) will fail.

This method guarantees that bytes have been allocated to the opened file, otherwise it will throw if fast allocation is not possible. Fast allocation is typically only supported in private app data directories, and on shared/external storage devices which are emulated.

If you're progressively allocating an unbounded amount of storage space (such as when recording a video) you should avoid calling this method more than once every 60 seconds.

AllocateBytes(UUID, Int64)

Allocate the requested number of bytes for your application to use on the given storage volume.

[Android.Runtime.Register("allocateBytes", "(Ljava/util/UUID;J)V", "GetAllocateBytes_Ljava_util_UUID_JHandler", ApiSince=26)]
public virtual void AllocateBytes (Java.Util.UUID storageUuid, long bytes);
[<Android.Runtime.Register("allocateBytes", "(Ljava/util/UUID;J)V", "GetAllocateBytes_Ljava_util_UUID_JHandler", ApiSince=26)>]
abstract member AllocateBytes : Java.Util.UUID * int64 -> unit
override this.AllocateBytes : Java.Util.UUID * int64 -> unit

Parameters

storageUuid
UUID

the UUID of the storage volume where you'd like to allocate disk space. The UUID for a specific path can be obtained using #getUuidForPath(File).

bytes
Int64

the number of bytes to allocate.

Attributes

Remarks

Allocate the requested number of bytes for your application to use on the given storage volume. This will cause the system to delete any cached files necessary to satisfy your request.

Attempts to allocate disk space beyond the value returned by #getAllocatableBytes(UUID) will fail.

Since multiple apps can be running simultaneously, this method may be subject to race conditions. If possible, consider using #allocateBytes(FileDescriptor, long) which will guarantee that bytes are allocated to an opened file.

If you're progressively allocating an unbounded amount of storage space (such as when recording a video) you should avoid calling this method more than once every 60 seconds.
