Can anyone explain me, why this will crash, btw. why the len-check (If TEndIDX >= TLen Then) dosn't work?
The if was never execute, btw. looks like ignored.

B4X:
Dim TData As String = File.ReadString(File.DirRootExternal, "data.dat")
Dim TLen As Int = File.Size(File.DirRootExternal, "data.dat")
Log("TDataLen:" & TData.Length)
Dim X As Int
Dim TStep As Int = 4000
Dim TEndIDX As Int
Dim T As String
For X = 0 To TLen - 1 Step TStep
   TEndIDX = X + TStep
   If TEndIDX >= TLen Then
     TEndIDX = TLen - 1
   End If
   Log("FROMTO:" & X & " - " & TEndIDX & " - " & TLen)
   T = TData.SubString2(X, TEndIDX)  '!!!!!!!! Crashs here
   Log("T:" & T.Length)
Next

B4X:
...
T:4000
FROMTO:160000 - 164000 - 176719
T:4000
FROMTO:164000 - 168000 - 176719

this works fine here, I had different values for file.size & string.lenght so I changed it to what I had as string.

B4X:
Dim TData As String = File.ReadString(File.DirAssets, "data.dat")
Dim TLen As Int = tdata.Length
Dim X As Int
Dim TStep As Int = 4000
Dim TEndIDX As Int
Dim T As String
For X = 0 To TData.Length Step TStep
   TEndIDX = X + TStep
   If TEndIDX >= TData.Length Then
     TEndIDX = TData.Length
   End If
   Log("FROMTO:" & X & " - " & TEndIDX & " - " & TLen)
   T = TData.SubString2(X, TEndIDX)  '!!!!!!!! Crashs here
   Log("T:" & T.Length)
    Log(T)
Next
