Effective in 2026, to align with our trunk stable development model and ensure platform stability for the ecosystem, we will publish source code to AOSP in Q2 and Q4. For building and contributing to AOSP, use android-latest-release. The android-latest-release manifest branch will always reference the most recent release pushed to AOSP. For more information, see Changes to AOSP.

Public constructors

LogFileSaver

public LogFileSaver (IBuildInfo buildInfo, 
                File rootDir)

Creates a LogFileSaver.

Construct a unique file system directory in rootDir/branch/build_id/uniqueDir

Parameters
`buildInfo`	`IBuildInfo`: the `IBuildInfo`
`rootDir`	`File`: the root file system path

LogFileSaver

public LogFileSaver (IBuildInfo buildInfo, 
                File rootDir, 
                Integer logRetentionDays)

Creates a LogFileSaver.

Construct a unique file system directory in rootDir/branch/build_id/testTag/uniqueDir

If directory creation fails, will use a temp directory.

Parameters
`buildInfo`	`IBuildInfo`: the `IBuildInfo`
`rootDir`	`File`: the root file system path
`logRetentionDays`	`Integer`: If provided a '.retention' file will be written to log directory containing a timestamp equal to current time + logRetentionDays. External cleanup scripts can use this file to determine when to delete log directories.
