[Android.Runtime.Register("openWrite", "(Ljava/lang/String;JJ)Ljava/io/OutputStream;", "GetOpenWrite_Ljava_lang_String_JJHandler")]
public virtual System.IO.Stream OpenWrite (string name, long offsetBytes, long lengthBytes);
[<Android.Runtime.Register("openWrite", "(Ljava/lang/String;JJ)Ljava/io/OutputStream;", "GetOpenWrite_Ljava_lang_String_JJHandler")>]
abstract member OpenWrite : string * int64 * int64 -> System.IO.Stream
override this.OpenWrite : string * int64 * int64 -> System.IO.Stream
Parameters
- name
- String
arbitrary, unique name of your choosing to identify the APK being written. You can open a file again for additional writes (such as after a reboot) by using the same name. This name is only meaningful within the context of a single install session.
- offsetBytes
- Int64
offset into the file to begin writing at, or 0 to start at the beginning of the file.
- lengthBytes
- Int64
total size of the file being written, used to preallocate the underlying disk space, or -1 if unknown. The system may clear various caches as needed to allocate this space.
Returns
- Attributes
Remarks
Open a stream to write an APK file into the session.
The returned stream will start writing data at the requested offset in the underlying file, which can be used to resume a partially written file. If a valid file length is specified, the system will preallocate the underlying disk space to optimize placement on disk. It's strongly recommended to provide a valid file length when known.
You can write data into the returned stream, optionally call #fsync(OutputStream)
as needed to ensure bytes have been persisted to disk, and then close when finished. All streams must be closed before calling #commit(IntentSender)
.
