Hi,

directory with FileWriter ?

Thanks

Technically yes you can (although not provided by the api), but you don't want to.

The txt file you write to www will NOT be backed up by iTunes if its in the www folder. Write it to Documents or the Library (paths are provided in the api). Documents are for user visible stuff (if you have UIFileSharing enabled - the user can see and upload/download to this folder in iTunes), Library is for app specific stuff. Both folders are backed up by iTunes.

Thank you, that answers my question!!!

The FileWriter and the FileWriter are very cool, I will use that for
backup lot of stuff..

Question..Do you know the maximum file size for a .txt file in the
Library folder ?

Don't think there's a quota per app -- as much as your device as space, is my guess.
