This guide is designed for existing users of Virtual Machinery's BTree who wish to write code for Googles Android(TM) platform. Unlike the Java ME platform the Android platform can use the standard BTree. The important difference is the file paths used to create and access your BTree. The following code fragments should illustrate the basic principles. Note that any code that accesses the Context (as this does) must inherit from android.app.Activity -

	.
	.
	// Create a BTree
	try {
		//************ Choose only one of the following two options **************************************
		// 1. Get the path to the applications private data - the amount of data that you can write will be restricted
               	String path = getDir("data",Context.MODE_PRIVATE)+"/";
		// 2. Get the path to the applications external storage (e.g an SD card) - the amount of data that you can write here is only restricted by 
		// the capacity of the external storage. Note that you should check if the SD card has been mounted
		String path=getExternalFilesDir(null).getAbsolutePath()+"/"+fileset;
		BTree aTree = new BTree(path+"MYBTREE.DAT",path+"MYBTREE.IND",0,0);
	} catch (BTreeException e) {
		// TODO Auto-generated catch block
		e.printStackTrace();
	}
	.
	.
	// Put a record	
	try {
		aTree.put("MYRECORD","MYDATA");
	} catch (BTreeException e) {
		// TODO Auto-generated catch block
		e.printStackTrace();
	}
	.
	.
	// Get a record
	String response = null;
	try {
		response = aTree.get("MYRECORD");
	} catch (BTreeException e) {
		// TODO Auto-generated catch block
		e.printStackTrace();
	}
