How to write file into DCIM directory exactly where camera does?

Question

Suppose I am writing an alternative Camera application and wish to write images exactly into the same place as Camera does and name them exactly in the same name Camera does

Answer 1

I've found this code useful for choosing the last used DCIM/Camera folder.

String getDCIMCamera() {
    try {
        String[] projection = new String[]{
                MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns._ID,
                MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.DATA,
                MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.BUCKET_DISPLAY_NAME,
                MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.DATE_TAKEN,
                MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.MIME_TYPE};

        Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(
                MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI,
                projection,
                null,
                null,
                MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.DATE_TAKEN + " DESC");
        if (cursor != null) {
            cursor.moveToFirst();
            do {
                String path = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA));
                if (path.contains("/DCIM/")) {
                    File file = new File(path);
                    path = file.getParent();
                    cursor.close();
                    return path;
                }
            } while (cursor.moveToNext());
            cursor.close();
        }
    }
    catch (Exception e) {
    }
    return "";
}
