HTTP Post a picture using share button.

How do you access this intent? Where does it come from?

Its the sharing intent fired when you hit the share button after you take the picture with the camera.

android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND

Something like:
I guess that getRealPathFromUri is the same code as the one posted in post #3 here: http://www.b4x.com/forum/basic4andr...orials/13473-uri-content-media-real-file.html

The following code returns null every time...

Which line returns Null?

ShareString = ShareIntent.GetExtra("android.intent.extra.STREAM")
ToastMessageShow("Share : " & ShareString, False)

You can use Intent.HasExtra to check if the extra field exists. In this case it seems that the field doesn't exist.

I did that and Intent.HasExtra returns True, I also tried to Intent.ExtrasToString this returns a bundle with the value aswell. The problem that I'm having is getting Intent.GetExtra("android.intent.extra.STREAM" ) to return the value of the URI, Instead it always returns null I believe this might be a bug. Can I use reflector Library to get the value and if so how do I do this?

Check the unfiltered logs and see if there is an error message about a casting error (when you call Intent.GetExtra).

Key android.intent.extra.STREAM expected Serializable but value was a android.net.Uri$HierarchicalUri. The default value <null> was returned.

In that case you will need to use reflection:

Thank you... the following code works...



Sub Activity_Resume

ShareIntent = Activity.GetStartingIntent
ToastMessageShow(ShareIntent.Action,False)
If ShareIntent.Action = "android.intent.action.SEND" Then
If ShareIntent.HasExtra("android.intent.extra.STREAM") = True Then
'Using reflector library since this does not work without it...
Dim r As Reflector
r.Target = ShareIntent 'the intent object

Dim ShareString As String
ShareString = r.RunMethod2("getParcelableExtra", "android.intent.extra.STREAM", "java.lang.String")

ToastMessageShow(GetPathFromContentResult(ShareString),True)
End If
Else
ToastMessageShow("No Share action!", False)
Activity.Finish
End If
End Sub
