Android Question Access to files in b4a 10.70 BETA # 2

Does this code work with directories (I mean: does it return true for an existing directory and false for a missing one) ? And how do I retrieve the list of assets ?

The change is related to AAPT2, the packager tool.

This code is from File.OpenInput:

B4X:

if (Dir.equals(assetsDir)) {
            if (virtualAssetsFolder != null) {
                is.setObject(new GZIPInputStream(
                        new FileInputStream(new java.io.File(virtualAssetsFolder, FileName.toLowerCase(BA.cul)))));
            }
            else {
                is.setObject(BA.applicationContext.getAssets().open(FileName.toLowerCase(BA.cul).replace('/', '\\')));
            }
        }

The backward slash is replaced with a forward slash now.

This call always returns an empty list with the new version, which is not expected:
BA.applicationContext.getAssets().list(FileName.toLowerCase(BA.cul).replace('/', '\\'))
In the previous version, all files in the specified directory were returned.

Try:

B4X:

BA.applicationContext.getAssets().list("");

Or in B4A: Log(File.ListFiles(File.DirAssets))

It seems like AAPT2 flattens the folders and changes the file names to include the full path.
