Android Question Location of emulator database

[anaylor01]

I am writing values when I run my app on the emulator. What is the location of the database on my computer for the emulator?

Dim dbfiledir As String

msgbox(dbfiledir, "")

I got this /mnt/sdcard/android/data/b4a.example/files but I can't find it on my computer.

The emulator uses an internal file system. It is not accessible from Windows file system.

You can use a tool named ddms from Android SDK to access the emulator or device file system.

I use adb to write/get files from emulators and Windows (and from/to real device too).

You could open a Windows' command window (writing and executing cmd in "search programs and files") and then:

to copy a file from Windows to an Emulator:
adb push [Windows path]\[file name] [Emulator path]
(e.g.: adb push C:\Users\USERNAME\Desktop\FileToCopy.txt /sdcard/)


to get a file from an Emulator:
adb pull [Emulator path]/[file name] [Windows path]\[file name]
(e.g. adb pull /sdcard/FileToGet.txt C:\Users\USERNAME\Desktop\FileToGet.txt)

Thank you LucaMs.

I am working on another computer and I tried using this.
Dim dbfiledir As String
msgbox(dbfiledir, "")
And it returns blank. Any ideas?

You define a new string and dont give it any content. And then you are wondering it is an empty string??????
