Android: Long press of button to save sound (Soundboard)

Question

I have put together a basic soundboard using Android Studio. Please be warned; I am new to Android app development.

I have a series of buttons that I have managed to get to play some .mp3 sounds that I have placed in the Raw folder and mentioned in my MainActivity.java file.

Albeit, I would like the ability to be able to long press on the buttons to save the associated sound to the storage of the phone.

Does anybody have any idea how I could go about this please?

Many thanks, Billy.

Answer 1

i don't see where is your button but let's suppose button_one will save mySound1 after long click

button_one.setOnLongClickListener(new OnLongClickListener() {
public boolean onLongClick(View arg0) {

     copyRAWtoPhone(R.raw.nickingbentcoppers,storagePath);

     return true;
 }
});

and here is copyRawToPhone function ,where first Variable id will be your raw file id and String path will be your phone storage path.

private void CopyRAWtoPhone(int id, String path) throws IOException {
InputStream in = getResources().openRawResource(id);
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(path);
byte[] buff = new byte[1024];
int read = 0;
try { 
    while ((read = in.read(buff)) > 0) {
        out.write(buff, 0, read);
    } 
} finally { 
    in.close();
    out.close();
 } 
}
