I\'m deleting a file as such
File fileToDelete = new File(\"filepath\");
Boolean fileDeleted = fileToDelete.delete();
The fileDeleted is
I use the following code (which is also much like my code for creating a video which also tells the media system about file changes and correctly updates the Gallery):
private void deleteVideo(String videoUrl)
{
File videoFile = new File(videoUrl);
if (!videoFile.delete())
{
Log.e(TAG, "Failed to delete " + videoUrl);
}
else
{
MediaScannerConnection.scanFile(mContext,new String[] { videoUrl }, null, new MediaScannerConnection.OnScanCompletedListener()
{
public void onScanCompleted(String path, Uri uri)
{
Log.i("ExternalStorage", "Scanned " + path + ":");
Log.i("ExternalStorage", "-> uri=" + uri);
}
});
}
}
