store an image in internal storage in android

Question

I am working now on application that start the camera and take a photo, I didn\'t use camera activity, but I wrote my camera app and I want to save the taken image in the in

Answer 1

Why don't you use the camera activity and save images to internal storage by creating temp folder that has writable permission which allow other application to write to this folder and take the image to its path and then after the camera activity return you can move the image to another internal storage folder but with private permission as follow

//the temp folder to start the camera activity with
String path = getDir("images", Context.MODE_WORLD_WRITEABLE).getPath() + "/test.jpg";

//start the camera activity
File file = new File(path);
Uri outputFileUri = Uri.fromFile(file);

Intent intent = new Intent(
android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, outputFileUri);
startActivityForResult(intent, CAMERA_ACTIVITY);

and in onActivityResult method move it to folder with private permission it will work fine as I tested it
