Return empty getExistingDirectory for Android SDK >= 30

Kafabih

Hello everyone, I have problem with QFileDialog::getExistingDirectory is returned empty value. I used QT 6.2.4 which tested on Android 13 (SDK 33) and may be affected on Android 11 & 12 which is using MANAGE_EXTERNALS_STORAGE permission. Is anyone tried another way to facing this problem?

I reported this bug here -> Return empty values getExistingDirectory

Alrigh I found alternative way to facing this problem by using QFileDialog::getOpenFileUrl.

In the bug report you write that
"have to edit what I reported here before is wrong method. So the right method is getOpenFileNames. I am apologized."

Of course, you should have updated your post here.

More often than not, a problem is not in the API, but new conditions (such as new OS version) that expose a problem in how you use it. And you don't tell anything about it.
