Android path slash prepended

Excuse my previous thread, i didn't know how to delete it.

I have a strange issue where I just use the streamingassetpath to load a file, but it appears as though a slash is being prepended.

Code (CSharp):

1.     public static readonly string LANG_DIR      = Application.streamingAssetsPath + Path.DirectorySeparatorChar + "Languages";

Code (CSharp):

1.    isoCode = enumToISO639(langType);
2.         string languageFile = Path.Combine(Config.LANG_DIR + String.Format(Path.DirectorySeparatorChar + "{0}.json", isoCode.ToUpper()));
3.         File.ReadAllText(languageFile);
4.         addTranslationKeys(File.ReadAllText(languageFile));

Code (CSharp):

1. Could not find a part of the path "/jar:file:/data/app/com.oculus.ClickVRPlayerDev-M_ZpiDMPbfCCiAW0_-xpCw==/base.apk!/assets/Languages/ENG.json".
2.  

 

While you could just remove the starting slash, there is a different issue in play. File.ReadAllText on Android doesn't work with streamingAssets anyways.

https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Application-streamingAssetsPath.html

You can read about it here.

You could also try using the Path.Combine call instead.

 

I can't remove the starting slash because i tried it with substring and it will just start changing the "/jar:file" to "/ar:file", so the first / is added by something external?

I already use path combine and I don't see why loadalltext wouldn't work as I also used a different method of loading the file using streamreader and that didn't work either and gave the same path error.

 

The link I gave you tells you how you load from streaming assets on Android and explains why you have to do it that way.

I don't know where your starting slash is coming from.

 

I tried doing it like this but to no avail

Code (CSharp):

1. private void initTranslations() {
2.  
3.         isoCode = enumToISO639(langType);
4.         string languageFile = Path.Combine(Config.LANG_DIR + String.Format(Path.DirectorySeparatorChar + "{0}.json", isoCode.ToUpper()));
5.  
6.         try {
7. #if UNITY_EDITOR
8.             addTranslationKeys(File.ReadAllText(languageFile));
9. #elif !UNITY_EDITOR && UNITY_ANDROID
10.             readFileAndroid(languageFile);
11. #endif
12.         } catch (Exception e) {
13.             if (Debug.isDebugBuild) Debug.Log("Failed to load language file");
14.         }
15.     }
16.  
17.     private IEnumerator readFileAndroid(string path) {
18.         UnityWebRequest request = new UnityWebRequest(path);
19.         yield return request.SendWebRequest();
20.         addTranslationKeys(request.downloadHandler.text);
21.     }

for now i will just put the json lines into a static class because this just doesn't appear to be working

 

You can put a JSON file in your Resources directory for this. This will work on all platforms, and in the editor.

e.g. for Resources\language.json:

Code (CSharp):

1. var textAsset = Resources.Load<TextAsset>("language");
2. string text = textAsset.text;
3.
