[android-developers] Re: Photo Picker
Here is the solution:
You have to move your cursor from position "-1" to "0" using
moveToFirst():
android.database.Cursor cursor = activity.getContentResolver().query(
intent.getData(), null, null, null, null);
cursor.moveToFirst();
int idx = cursor.getColumnIndex(MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.DATA);
String fname = cursor.getString(idx);

[android-developers] Re: photo picker Uri issue
You have to call moveToNext or moveToPosition first before you can use
the cursor.

I can't tell.
Debug your code and see which statement throws an exception and see
what exception is thrown and note the values of the variables (are
some set to null when they shouldn't, for example).

I tried this code, and every time it force closes. The Uri object
gives me the Uri, but I can't see why it's failing... Please help!!!
Uri photoUri = intent.getData();
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(photoUri, new String[]
{MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.DATA}, null, null, null);
String absoluteFilePath = cursor.getString(0);

No, I have nothing in onPause(). I guess I'll just have to keep

Do you have code in your 'onPause()' method of your activity.
If so, it looks like this code is blocking (never returning).

[android-developers] Re: Photo Picker
Did you debug it?
Did you get a null-pointer-exception?
(The code i gave you may have some issues: I just typed it in, without
using any IDE such as Eclipse. But it should give you a general idea
of what to do)

I must have a bad phone or something... Now the program force closes

[android-developers] Re: Photo Picker
Wow... It's so simple, but still got an error... I got this:
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(datatoget, null, null,
null, null);
String fname = cursor.getString(ImageColumns.DATA);
It won't let me run the code... "getString" is underlined in red and
it just wants me to change it to "getLong" but if I do that, it just
tells me to change it back to "getString" again... Am I doing
something wrong here, or am I that bad at coding Android?

[android-developers] Re: Photo Picker
This works as designed.
The getDataString() is the string of the content Uri that refers to
the image.
If you want the physical filename, do a 'Cursor cursor =
getContentResolver().query(intent.getData(), null, null, null, null)'
and query the column ImageColumns.DATA on the returned cursor.
The cursor.getString(ImageColumns.DATA) will return the physical file-
path on your SC-card.

[android-developers] Re: photo picker Uri issue
This Uri is the logical (not physical) path used by the image content
provider.
If you want to get the physical path to the actual file on the SD-
card, query this Uri:
Cursor cursor = query(photoUri, new String[]
{MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.DATA}, null, null, null);
String absoluteFilePath = cursor.getString(0);
Now, absoluteFilePath is the physical path to your image, which you
can use in Drawable.createFromPath
Question: Why don't you create a Bitmap instead?
...
InputStream is = getContentResolver().openInputStream(photoUri);
Bitmap bm = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(is);
...
is.close();
I ask this, because it is safer to cache Bitmaps instead of Drawables.
If you cache Drawables, you run the risk of memory leaks. Drawables
have handles to your activity and when your activity gets destroyed
while your Drawables are still cached, your activiy will never be
garbage collected --> memory leak.
Bitmaps don't have this problem. They are basically byte-arrays with
some behavior :).
