Android Question RunTimePermission and WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE

[wizard699]

Using library RunTimePermission, yet add the perission WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE.

And I have added the code

AddManifestText(
<uses-permission
  android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"
  android:maxSdkVersion="18" />
)

to use this permission for Android 4 version, how described in your tutorial using GetSafeDirDefaultExternal.

But then, sending apk to Google, there is this error:
Duplicate declarations of permission android permission write_external_storage

It's necessary to comment the code in manifest?

Take a look <source_code_folder>\Objects\AndroidManifest.xml.
If you will see

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" android:maxSdkVersion="18"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE">

try following combination in manifest

AddManifestText (<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" android:maxSdkVersion="18"/>)
RemovePermission (android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)

In fact I've seen this duplication in AndroidManifest.xml.
Now, with your suggestion, all goes PERFECT!!!

Thanks a lot.

I'm not sure about it.

Where does the android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission come from? Click on Logs - List Permissions.

Hi Erel. From StringFunctions.

The first step is to remove this library. You don't need it. You can do everything without it.

Did you change all File.DirRootExternal to runtimepermissionsInstance.GetSafeDirDefaultExternal ?
