Cannot write to GetLibraryPath (Android)

[Felix. 0]

Greetings to all,

why I'm not able to write to GetLibraryPath folder? (Android 11, Delphi 10.4.1)

I keep getting the Permission denied error.

GetLibraryPath isn't the external storage, is it?

1. This call was successful in previous Delphi versions?
2. Have you tried any other device?

On Android, it points to the device-specific location of the sandbox for the application;

So it might be related to device or application permissions.

On Android, it's not meant to be written to by the app. What is the reason why you're using that folder to write to?

I've tried to create a text file in Library folder to pass it to stockfish engine.

Save the file to a directory where you have write permission
