When we try to caculate the size of the particular folder(Which is available in device memory), its giving always negative value.

           

Software version

6.0.0.141 (Platform 6.4.0.64)

Device model

9800

            Code:

                        fileDirectory = "file:///store/home/user/documents/"

                        FileConnection fconnForDirect = (FileConnection) Connector.open(fileDirectory, Connector.READ_WRITE);

                        int folderSize = (int) fconnForDirect.availableSize();

                        Api Usage : javax.microedition.io.file.FileConnection                                              javax.microedition.io.Connector

            Note: The same code is giving expected size in Simulator and alll other versions.

Awaiting for the response

FileConnection.availableSize() returns a long not an int.  So, if the folder size returned is greater than the max size for an int, it will give you a negative int when you cast it to an int.  Try:

long folderSize = fconnForDirect.availableSize();
