Intent share = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
share.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("android.resource://" + ContextID.getPackageName() + "/" + ResourceID));
share.setType("audio/*");
ContextID.startActivity(Intent.createChooser(share, "Condividi il suono"));
The above code works fine with Gmail, while Whatsapp gives a toast message like "Share a file failed, please try it again"
Maybe i've the same problem of this guy: Intent.ACTION_SEND Whatsapp
But how can i temporarily copy my resources on sd card and then share them?
File dest = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();
InputStream in = ContextID.getResources().openRawResource(ResourceID);
try
{
OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(new File(dest, "lastshared.mp3"));
byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
int len;
while ( (len = in.read(buf, 0, buf.length)) != -1)
{
out.write(buf, 0, len);
}
in.close();
out.close();
}
catch (Exception e) {}
Intent share = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
share.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString() + "/lastshared.mp3"));
share.setType("audio/*");
ContextID.startActivity(Intent.createChooser(share, "Condividi il suono \"" + TheButton.getText() + "\""));
return true;
manifest:
<manifest ...>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"></uses-permission>
...
</manifest>
please change this line from your code and you will be able to share
write ("audio/mp3")
as bellow instead ("audio/*")
share.setType("audio/mp3");
this is because share type for whatsapp doesn't support ("audio/*")
or ("*/*")
