I am trying to get the StreamProvider to share images in my assets/stamps folder, but am doing something wrong. Sorry for asking such a trivial question. Using the demo as an example this is where I am at.
I added this to my android manifest although it says the provider element is not allowed here
<provider
android:name="com.example.np161.stamp2.StreamProvider"
android:authorities="com.example.np161.stamp2"
android:exported="false"
android:grantUriPermissions="true">
<meta-data
android:name="com.example.np161.STREAM_PROVIDER_PATHS"
android:resource="@xml/paths"/>
</provider>
my paths.xml contains this
<paths xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<asset name="assets" path="stamps" />
</paths>
The activity where I am sending the image
assetManager = getResources().getAssets();
try {
images = getAssets().list("stamps");
listImages = new ArrayList<String>(Arrays.asList(images));
}catch(IOException e){
}
I use this to populate my gridview and then set the onclick method
gridview.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View v, int position, long id) {
String path = "assets/" + listImages.get(position);
Intent shareIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
shareIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, getUri(path));
shareIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION);
shareIntent.setType("image/png");
shareIntent.setPackage(ChatHeadService.app);
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(shareIntent, "Share with"));
modified getUri method
private static final Uri PROVIDER= Uri.parse("content://com.example.np161.stamp2");
private Uri getUri(String pathEnd) {
String path=pathEnd;
return(PROVIDER.buildUpon().path(path).build());
}
Thanks for taking the time to look at this. I am still relatively new to android programming.
Edit: I am currently using motorola moto g android 5.1 as test device
