android - When to delete file shared with external apps by content provider -
in application allow users share files external apps using content provider. files encrypted before can share 1 of files, need decrypt , store in application internal storage. after implemented custom content provider can point file using given url , return parcelfiledescriptor instance.
for security issues remove file internal storage after external application has used it, or user canceled operation.
edit: external application sharing file 3rd party application.
so question is: when should remove file, or know of event can listen or handler can attach file?
thank responses.
side question be: know of way wouldn't have store file on internal storage, rather send directly stream external app?
the answer question use pipes parcelfiledescriptor.
