Hello and welcome to using openFileManager.
This program is my goal at creating a entirely free and open source file browser for the Android
powered devices. It currently only officially supports MDPI and HDPI as that is what screen i have
tested it on. Any additions are appreciated and will be released under the license that is affixed
to the software as a whole.
Areas that are currently undergoing main development:
Core features
--(Multiple)Item select
--Open as
--Rename
--Cut/Paste
--Delete file/folder
--New file/folder
--Add/remove favorites
--Set home directory
Forward/Back directory switching(Needs the logic)
The application consists of two activities. The main file manager activity and the settings menu.
Since the main view takes an adapter, the adapter just needs have its data changed and refreshed
to update the list type view. This is done by having each item send a broadcast that the app
catches and in turn refreshes the adapter with the appropriate data.
Each major view group consists of a fragment, the main list view, the side view, the cut/paste view
and possibly others in the future. Each fragment has a series of callbacks(listeners) that is used
to communicate with the fragment in a defined manner. All fragments are managed in the main
activity and is used as the communication and callback medium.
