Data Storage and file removal on uninstall.

[fhunter]

Hi,

Quick question. When distributing a Smartphone
application as a cab file...
When the user unistalls the application how do I remove
the files created by my application? Right now it removes
all the files the cab installed, but not the new files
created when runing the app.

Note: The answer might be. Don't create a file. But then
how would you store high score information during game
play? and How would you store game saved information?

Thanks in advance.

One way might be to include empty/default versions of these files as part of
your installation?

Chris,

Thanks so much for the reply. I did try that, but
unfortunatelly I get a IOException if I then try to write
the files. Reading works fine.

Any ideas why this will be. The IOException doe snot
really give me any more detail as to why.

Thanks
