Android Question No attachment [SOLVED]

[AHilberink]

Hi,

I try to add an attachment to a mail intent.

I use:

Sub btnMail_Click
    Dim in As Intent
    
    btnMail.Visible=False
    Dim PanelShot As B4XBitmap = ScrollView2D1.Panel.As(B4XView).SnapShot
    ImageView1.Visible=True
    Dim Out2 As OutputStream = File.OpenOutput(xui.DefaultFolder, "Geleide"&Formuliernr.Text&".jpg", False)
    PanelShot.WriteToStream(Out2, 50, "JPEG")
    Out2.Close
    
    ImageView1.Bitmap=LoadBitmap(xui.DefaultFolder,"Geleide"&Formuliernr.Text&".jpg")
    
    Log(xui.FileUri(xui.DefaultFolder,"Geleide"&Formuliernr.Text&".jpg"))
    in.Initialize(in.ACTION_SEND,"mailto:andre@xx.nl")
    in.PutExtra("android.intent.extra.SUBJECT", "this is the subject")
    in.PutExtra("android.intent.extra.TEXT", "this is the body")
    in.PutExtra("android.intent.extra.STREAM", xui.FileUri(xui.DefaultFolder,"Geleide"&Formuliernr.Text&".jpg"))
    StartActivity(in)
    btnMail.Visible=True
End Sub

ImageView1 is filled by the file, so he exist but no attachment. Using Outlook App.

Can someone help?

Kind regards,
André

Try this

EmailIntent.PutExtra("android.intent.extra.STREAM", CreateFileProviderUri(Dir, FileName))

Private Sub CreateFileProviderUri (Dir As String, FileName As String) As Object
    Dim FileProvider As JavaObject
    Dim context As JavaObject
    context.InitializeContext
    FileProvider.InitializeStatic("android.support.v4.content.FileProvider")
    Dim f As JavaObject
    f.InitializeNewInstance("java.io.File", Array(Dir, FileName))
    Return FileProvider.RunMethod("getUriForFile", Array(context, Application.PackageName & ".provider", f))
End Sub

See this example: [class] FileProvider - share files

Thanks guys. It works.

I did the following:
Add to Manifest:

AddManifestText(<uses-permission
    android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"
    android:maxSdkVersion="18" />
)

AddApplicationText(
  <provider
  android:name="android.support.v4.content.FileProvider"
  android:authorities="$PACKAGE$.provider"
  android:exported="false"
  android:grantUriPermissions="true">
  <meta-data
  android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS"
  android:resource="@xml/provider_paths"/>
  </provider>
)
CreateResource(xml, provider_paths,
   <files-path name="name" path="shared" />
)

Changed code to:

Sub btnMail_Click
    Dim FileName As String = "Geleide"&Formuliernr.Text&".jpg"
    btnMail.Visible=False
    Dim PanelShot As B4XBitmap = ScrollView2D1.Panel.As(B4XView).SnapShot
    ImageView1.Visible=True
    Dim Out2 As OutputStream = File.OpenOutput(Provider.SharedFolder,FileName, False)
    PanelShot.WriteToStream(Out2, 50, "JPEG")
    Out2.Close
    
    Dim email As Email
    email.To.Add("andre@xx.nl")
    email.Subject = "this is the subject"
    email.Attachments.Add(Provider.GetFileUri(FileName))
    Dim in As Intent = email.GetIntent
    in.Flags = 1 'FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION
    StartActivity(in)
    btnMail.Visible=True
End Sub

Kind regards,
André
