Android Question Java online Share Facebook / Twitter / Gmail / etc..

[MarcoRome]

Hi all, i found this interesting code:

// code of share(String nameApp,String imagePath,String message) function
public void share(String nameApp, String imagePath, String message) {
    try {
        List<Intent> targetedShareIntents = new ArrayList<Intent>();
        Intent share = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
        share.setType("image/jpeg");
        List<ResolveInfo> resInfo = getPackageManager()
                .queryIntentActivities(share, 0);
        if (!resInfo.isEmpty()) {
            for (ResolveInfo info : resInfo) {
                Intent targetedShare = new Intent(
                        android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
                targetedShare.setType("image/jpeg"); // put here your mime
                                                        // type
                if (info.activityInfo.packageName.toLowerCase().contains(
                        nameApp)
                        || info.activityInfo.name.toLowerCase().contains(
                                nameApp)) {
                    targetedShare.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT,
                            "Sample Photo");
                    targetedShare.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, message);
                    targetedShare.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM,
                            Uri.fromFile(new File(imagePath)));
                    targetedShare.setPackage(info.activityInfo.packageName);
                    targetedShareIntents.add(targetedShare);
                }
            }
            Intent chooserIntent = Intent.createChooser(
                    targetedShareIntents.remove(0), "Select app to share");
            chooserIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_INITIAL_INTENTS,
                    targetedShareIntents.toArray(new Parcelable[] {}));
            startActivity(chooserIntent);
        }
    } catch (Exception e) {
        Log.v("VM",
                "Exception while sending image on" + nameApp + " "
                        + e.getMessage());
    }
}

For attaching image on gmail,facebook,twitter with text use below code.
File filePath = new File("your image path");
share("gmail",filePath.toString(),"your comment");
share("facebook",filePath.toString(),"your comment");
share("twitter",filePath.toString(),"your comment");

But when i compile i have error about List<Intent>...

Any idea ?
Thank's
Marco

You dont need to copy Java code for this.

Hi thedesoltesoul...
the question is share Facebook.
I have this code that work without problem Whatsapp, Twitter, etc. but dont work with facebook.

    Dim i As Intent , uri, testo As String
            uri="********************" & CRLF &"Condiviso con:" & CRLF & "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=xxxxx"
            testo = "Inseriamo un testo corto da pochi caratteri..."
            i.Initialize(i.ACTION_SEND, "")          
              i.SetType("text/plain")
            i.PutExtra("android.intent.extra.SUBJECT", Activity.Title  )      
            i.PutExtra("android.intent.extra.TEXT", testo &  CRLF & uri)
              i.WrapAsIntentChooser("Share")
              StartActivity(i)

I try also AhaShare but i see that want Facebookid and RedirectUri ( i reading tutorial NJDude https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/tutorial-post-to-facebook-wall-via-b4a-app.17739/#content but now Fb want https as RedirectUrl)

The question is... exist one intent or similar code that can i use for share in FB ??

Thank you
Marco

This is very similar code to the java one (only one is for text and the other is for image). Is there an option to share with facebook popping up?

 

[MarcoRome]

Yes i see this that more or less is same thing. These filters are applications that you would like to use. Example: I want to share only with Gmail +, FB, WhatsApp, Twitter.
Do you know exist code to share in FB without use AhaShare ( it's a fantastic library ) ??
