I'm attempting to use ACTION_PICK_ACTIVITY. According to the docs:
"Pick an activity given an intent, returning the class selected."
So, I've used ACTION_PICK to pick a contact, which I get back in my
onActivityResult() as an Intent.
What I can't quite figure out is how to construct the
ACTION_PICK_ACTIVITY Intent. Again, according to the docs:
"Input: getExtra(String) field EXTRA_INTENT is an Intent used with
queryIntentActivities(Intent, int) to determine the set of activities
from which to pick."
If I'm reading this correctly, I need two Intents:
1. One containing the Uri of the content for which I want the user to
pick an activity
2. One containing the Intent from #1 above as EXTRA_INTENT and having an
action of ACTION_PICK_ACTIVITY
It's a bit mystifying why I need two rather than just one (I don't need
EXTRA_INTENT on ACTION_PICK, so why on ACTION_PICK_ACTIVITY?). But, be
that as it may, no matter what I try, Android 0.9 says it can't find an
activity to handle my ACTION_PICK_ACTIVITY request, and so blows up with
an exception like:
android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: No Activity found to handle
Intent { action=android.intent.action.PICK_ACTIVITY (has extras) }
Part of the problem may be that the docs *don't* say what the Uri is
supposed to be for Intent #2. I have tried the same Uri as in Intent #1,
and I have tried no Uri, and both have failed:
Intent i=new Intent()
//.setData(data.getData())
.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_INTENT, data)
.setAction(Intent.ACTION_PICK_ACTIVITY);
where data is the Intent I got back from ACTION_PICK.
Any idea where I'm going wrong?
Thanks!
