Just wondering if anyone has had success using the HCopyFile function within an Android app? I've created a procedure that uses the HCopyFile function to synchronize the data between Client Server and HFSQL (on device) - which works fine when running the demo on the PC - but soon as I try and run the same thing on Android tablet, I get the following error:

Fatal error

Error in SyncData global procedure process.
HCopyFile function called.
Unable to open <!s!> files.

I'm unsure as to how to fix this? According to the HCopyFile details page the function should be compatible on android devices.

Hi,

this can come from many things, as the emulator is just that...

So without seing your code...

Best regards

Hi Fabrice - this thread was obviously posted quite a while ago and I never did solve the issue I had - but I did find a work-around by using the hCopyRecord function instead.

However I'm revisiting this issue as it would make synchronising data from server --> tablet so much faster if I could simply get the hCopyFile method to work.

Any assistance in working out why I get the error above would be much appreciated!

A sample of the code I'm trying to use is:

HLockFile(PR_ProjectDetails, hLockReadWrite)
IF NOT HCopyFile("", fDataDir+[fSep]+"PR_ProjectDetails_Local.fic", Projects, "PR_ProjectDetails.fic", hCreateIndex, "", "") THEN
Error(HErrorInfo(hErrFullDetails))
END
HUnlockFile()
