In my activity, I'm calling a second activity from the main activity by startActivityForResult. In my second activity, there are some methods that finish this activity (maybe without a result), however, just one of them returns a result.
For example, from the main activity, I call a second one. In this activity, I'm checking some features of a handset, such as does it have a camera. If it doesn't have then I'll close this activity. Also, during the preparation of MediaRecorder or MediaPlayer if a problem happens then I'll close this activity.
If its device has a camera and recording is done completely, then after recording a video if a user clicks on the done button then I'll send the result (address of the recorded video) back to the main activity.
How do I check the result from the main activity?
From your FirstActivity, call the SecondActivity using the startActivityForResult() method.
For example:
int LAUNCH_SECOND_ACTIVITY = 1
Intent i = new Intent(this, SecondActivity.class);
startActivityForResult(i, LAUNCH_SECOND_ACTIVITY);
In your SecondActivity, set the data which you want to return back to FirstActivity. If you don't want to return back, don't set any.
For example: In SecondActivity if you want to send back data:
Intent returnIntent = new Intent();
returnIntent.putExtra("result",result);
setResult(Activity.RESULT_OK,returnIntent);
finish();
If you don't want to return data:
Intent returnIntent = new Intent();
setResult(Activity.RESULT_CANCELED, returnIntent);
finish();
Now in your FirstActivity class, write the following code for the onActivityResult() method.
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == LAUNCH_SECOND_ACTIVITY) {
if(resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK){
String result=data.getStringExtra("result");
}
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_CANCELED) {
// Write your code if there's no result
}
}
} //onActivityResult
To implement passing data between two activities in a much better way in Kotlin, please go through 'A better way to pass data between Activities'.
How to check the result from the main activity?
You need to override Activity.onActivityResult() and then check its parameters:
requestCode identifies which app returned these results. This is defined by you when you call startActivityForResult().
resultCode informs you whether this app succeeded, failed, or something different
data holds any information returned by this app. This may be null.
Example
To see the entire process in context, here is a supplemental answer. See my fuller answer for more explanation.
MainActivity.java
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
// Add a different request code for every activity you are starting from here
private static final int SECOND_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE = 0;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
}
// "Go to Second Activity" button click
public void onButtonClick(View view) {
// Start the SecondActivity
Intent intent = new Intent(this, SecondActivity.class);
startActivityForResult(intent, SECOND_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE);
}
// This method is called when the second activity finishes
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
// check that it is the SecondActivity with an OK result
if (requestCode == SECOND_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE) {
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) { // Activity.RESULT_OK
// get String data from Intent
String returnString = data.getStringExtra("keyName");
// set text view with string
TextView textView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView);
textView.setText(returnString);
}
}
}
}
SecondActivity.java
public class SecondActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_second);
}
// "Send text back" button click
public void onButtonClick(View view) {
// get the text from the EditText
EditText editText = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText);
String stringToPassBack = editText.getText().toString();
// put the String to pass back into an Intent and close this activity
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.putExtra("keyName", stringToPassBack);
setResult(RESULT_OK, intent);
finish();
}
}
Complementing the answer from Nishant, the best way to return the activity result is:
Intent returnIntent = getIntent();
returnIntent.putExtra("result",result);
setResult(RESULT_OK,returnIntent);
finish();
I was having a problem with
new Intent();
Then I found out that the correct way is using
getIntent();
to get the current intent.
startActivityForResult: Deprecated in Android X
For the new way we have registerForActivityResult.
In Java :
// You need to create a launcher variable inside onAttach or onCreate or global, i.e, before the activity is displayed
ActivityResultLauncher<Intent> launchSomeActivity = registerForActivityResult(
new ActivityResultContracts.StartActivityForResult(),
new ActivityResultCallback<ActivityResult>() {
#Override
public void onActivityResult(ActivityResult result) {
if (result.getResultCode() == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
Intent data = result.getData();
// your operation....
}
}
});
public void openYourActivity() {
Intent intent = new Intent(this, SomeActivity.class);
launchSomeActivity.launch(intent);
}
In Kotlin :
var resultLauncher = registerForActivityResult(StartActivityForResult()) { result ->
if (result.resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
val data: Intent? = result.data
// your operation...
}
}
fun openYourActivity() {
val intent = Intent(this, SomeActivity::class.java)
resultLauncher.launch(intent)
}
Advantage:
The new way is reduce complexity which we faced when we call the activity from a fragment or from another activity
Easily ask for any permission and get callback
For those who have problem with wrong requestCode in onActivityResult
If you are calling startActivityForResult() from your Fragment, the requestCode is changed by the Activity that owns the Fragment.
If you want to get the correct resultCode in your activity try this:
Change:
startActivityForResult(intent, 1); To:
getActivity().startActivityForResult(intent, 1);
The ActivityResultRegistry is the recommended approach
ComponentActivity now provides an ActivityResultRegistry that lets you handle the startActivityForResult()+onActivityResult() as well as requestPermissions()+onRequestPermissionsResult() flows without overriding methods in your Activity or Fragment, brings increased type safety via ActivityResultContract, and provides hooks for testing these flows.
It is strongly recommended to use the Activity Result APIs introduced in Android 10 Activity 1.2.0-alpha02 and Fragment 1.3.0-alpha02.
Add this to your build.gradle
def activity_version = "1.2.0-beta01"
// Java language implementation
implementation "androidx.activity:activity:$activity_version"
// Kotlin
implementation "androidx.activity:activity-ktx:$activity_version"
How to use the pre-built contract
This new API has the following pre-built functionalities
TakeVideo
PickContact
GetContent
GetContents
OpenDocument
OpenDocuments
OpenDocumentTree
CreateDocument
Dial
TakePicture
RequestPermission
RequestPermissions
An example that uses the takePicture contract:
private val takePicture = prepareCall(ActivityResultContracts.TakePicture()) { bitmap: Bitmap? ->
// Do something with the Bitmap, if present
}
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
button.setOnClickListener { takePicture() }
}
So what’s going on here? Let’s break it down slightly. takePicture is just a callback which returns a nullable Bitmap - whether or not it’s null depends on whether or not the onActivityResult process was successful. prepareCall then registers this call into a new feature on ComponentActivity called the ActivityResultRegistry - we’ll come back to this later. ActivityResultContracts.TakePicture() is one of the built-in helpers which Google have created for us, and finally invoking takePicture actually triggers the Intent in the same way that you would previously with Activity.startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_CODE).
How to write a custom contract
A simple contract that takes an Int as an input and returns a string that the requested Activity returns in the result Intent.
class MyContract : ActivityResultContract<Int, String>() {
companion object {
const val ACTION = "com.myapp.action.MY_ACTION"
const val INPUT_INT = "input_int"
const val OUTPUT_STRING = "output_string"
}
override fun createIntent(input: Int): Intent {
return Intent(ACTION)
.apply { putExtra(INPUT_INT, input) }
}
override fun parseResult(resultCode: Int, intent: Intent?): String? {
return when (resultCode) {
Activity.RESULT_OK -> intent?.getStringExtra(OUTPUT_STRING)
else -> null
}
}
}
class MyActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
private val myActionCall = prepareCall(MyContract()) { result ->
Log.i("MyActivity", "Obtained result: $result")
}
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
...
button.setOnClickListener {
myActionCall(500)
}
}
}
Check this official documentation for more information.
If you want to update the user interface with the activity result, you can't to use this.runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {}. Doing this, the UI won't refresh with the new value. Instead, you can do this:
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED) {
return;
}
global_lat = data.getDoubleExtra("LATITUDE", 0);
global_lng = data.getDoubleExtra("LONGITUDE", 0);
new_latlng = true;
}
#Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
if(new_latlng)
{
PhysicalTagProperties.this.setLocation(global_lat, global_lng);
new_latlng=false;
}
}
This seems silly, but it works pretty well.
In Kotlin
Suppose A & B are activities the navigation is from A -> B
We need the result back from A <- B
in A
// calling the Activity B
resultLauncher.launch(Intent(requireContext(), B::class.java))
// we get data in here from B
private var resultLauncher =
registerForActivityResult(ActivityResultContracts.StartActivityForResult()) { result ->
when (result.resultCode) {
Activity.RESULT_OK -> {
result.data?.getStringExtra("VALUE")?.let {
// data received here
}
}
Activity.RESULT_CANCELED -> {
// cancel or failure
}
}
}
In B
// Sending result value back to A
if (success) {
setResult(RESULT_OK, Intent().putExtra("VALUE", value))
} else {
setResult(RESULT_CANCELED)
}
It is a very common problem on Android
It can be broken down into three pieces
Start Activity B (happens in Activity A)
Set requested data (happens in activity B)
Receive requested data (happens in activity A)
startActivity B
Intent i = new Intent(A.this, B.class);
startActivity(i);
Set requested data
In this part, you decide whether you want to send data back or not when a particular event occurs.
E.g.: In activity B there is an EditText and two buttons b1, b2.
Clicking on Button b1 sends data back to activity A.
Clicking on Button b2 does not send any data.
Sending data
b1......clickListener
{
Intent resultIntent = new Intent();
resultIntent.putExtra("Your_key", "Your_value");
setResult(RES_CODE_A, resultIntent);
finish();
}
Not sending data
b2......clickListener
{
setResult(RES_CODE_B, new Intent());
finish();
}
The user clicks the back button
By default, the result is set with Activity.RESULT_CANCEL response code
Retrieve result
For that override onActivityResult method
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (resultCode == RES_CODE_A) {
// b1 was clicked
String x = data.getStringExtra("RES_CODE_A");
}
else if(resultCode == RES_CODE_B){
// b2 was clicked
}
else{
// The back button was clicked
}
}
I will post the new "way" with Android X in a short answer (because in some case you does not need custom registry or contract). If you want more information, see: Getting a result from an activity
Important: there is actually a bug with the backward compatibility of Android X so you have to add fragment_version in your Gradle file. Otherwise you will get an exception "New result API error : Can only use lower 16 bits for requestCode".
dependencies {
def activity_version = "1.2.0-beta01"
// Java language implementation
implementation "androidx.activity:activity:$activity_version"
// Kotlin
implementation "androidx.activity:activity-ktx:$activity_version"
def fragment_version = "1.3.0-beta02"
// Java language implementation
implementation "androidx.fragment:fragment:$fragment_version"
// Kotlin
implementation "androidx.fragment:fragment-ktx:$fragment_version"
// Testing Fragments in Isolation
debugImplementation "androidx.fragment:fragment-testing:$fragment_version"
}
Now you just have to add this member variable of your activity. This use a predefined registry and generic contract.
public class MyActivity extends AppCompatActivity{
...
/**
* Activity callback API.
*/
// https://developer.android.com/training/basics/intents/result
private ActivityResultLauncher<Intent> mStartForResult = registerForActivityResult(new ActivityResultContracts.StartActivityForResult(),
new ActivityResultCallback<ActivityResult>() {
#Override
public void onActivityResult(ActivityResult result) {
switch (result.getResultCode()) {
case Activity.RESULT_OK:
Intent intent = result.getData();
// Handle the Intent
Toast.makeText(MyActivity.this, "Activity returned ok", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
break;
case Activity.RESULT_CANCELED:
Toast.makeText(MyActivity.this, "Activity canceled", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
break;
}
}
});
Before new API you had :
btn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(MyActivity .this, EditActivity.class);
startActivityForResult(intent, Constants.INTENT_EDIT_REQUEST_CODE);
}
});
You may notice that the request code is now generated (and hold) by the Google framework.
Your code becomes:
btn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(MyActivity .this, EditActivity.class);
mStartForResult.launch(intent);
}
});
First you use startActivityForResult() with parameters in the first Activity and if you want to send data from the second Activity to first Activity then pass the value using Intent with the setResult() method and get that data inside the onActivityResult() method in the first Activity.
In your Main Activity
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
findViewById(R.id.takeCam).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
Intent intent=new Intent(getApplicationContext(),TakePhotoActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("Mode","Take");
startActivity(intent);
}
});
findViewById(R.id.selectGal).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
Intent intent=new Intent(getApplicationContext(),TakePhotoActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("Mode","Gallery");
startActivity(intent);
}
});
}
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
}
In Second Activity to Display
private static final int CAMERA_REQUEST = 1888;
private ImageView imageView;
private static final int MY_CAMERA_PERMISSION_CODE = 100;
private static final int PICK_PHOTO_FOR_AVATAR = 0;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_take_photo);
imageView=findViewById(R.id.imageView);
if(getIntent().getStringExtra("Mode").equals("Gallery"))
{
pickImage();
}
else {
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) {
if (checkSelfPermission(Manifest.permission.CAMERA) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
requestPermissions(new String[]{Manifest.permission.CAMERA}, MY_CAMERA_PERMISSION_CODE);
} else {
Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
startActivityForResult(cameraIntent, CAMERA_REQUEST);
}
}
}
}
public void pickImage() {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK);
intent.setType("image/*");
startActivityForResult(intent, PICK_PHOTO_FOR_AVATAR);
}
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, #NonNull String[] permissions, #NonNull int[] grantResults)
{
super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);
if (requestCode == MY_CAMERA_PERMISSION_CODE)
{
if (grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED)
{
Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
startActivityForResult(cameraIntent, CAMERA_REQUEST);
}
else
{
Toast.makeText(this, "Camera Permission Denied..", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
}
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == CAMERA_REQUEST && resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
Bitmap photo = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("data");
imageView.setImageBitmap(photo);
}
if (requestCode == PICK_PHOTO_FOR_AVATAR && resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
if (data == null) {
Log.d("ABC","No Such Image Selected");
return;
}
try {
Uri selectedData=data.getData();
Log.d("ABC","Image Pick-Up");
imageView.setImageURI(selectedData);
InputStream inputStream = getApplicationContext().getContentResolver().openInputStream(selectedData);
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(inputStream);
Bitmap bmp=MediaStore.Images.Media.getBitmap(getContentResolver(),selectedData);
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch(IOException e){
}
}
}
You need to override Activity.onActivityResult():
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (resultCode == RESULT_CODE_ONE) {
String a = data.getStringExtra("RESULT_CODE_ONE");
}
else if(resultCode == RESULT_CODE_TWO){
// b was clicked
}
else{
}
}
I have 3 Activities. Intent is passed from Activity 1 to Activity 2 with some data which is to be used for DB transactions. From Activity 2 data and Intent are passed to Activity 3.
Now, i want to transfer from Activity 3 to Activity 2 but as activity 2 gets intent from Activity 1 , it returns some error which results in null exceptions :/
So , i want to refresh activity 2 on returning from Activity 3 , but without intent or proper use of intent which does not affect data
Start Activity2 from Acivity1 as:
Intent i = new Intent(this, Activity2.class);
startActivityForResult(i, 1);
in Activity2 use setResult for sending data back :
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.putExtra("edittextvalue","value_here")
setResult(RESULT_OK, intent);
finish();
and in First Activity receive data as onActivityResult:
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == 1) {
if(resultCode == RESULT_OK){
String stredittext=data.getStringExtra("edittextvalue");
}
}
}
OR
You can use this
In Activity2,
#Override
public void onBackPressed() {
String data = mEditText.getText();
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.putExtra("MyData", data);
setResult(resultcode, intent);
}
In Activity1,
onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (requestCode == 1) {
if(resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
String myStr=data.getStringExtra("MyData");
mTextView.setText(myStr);
}
}
}
OR
you can use SharedPreferences also for Sharing data Between Activities
You can use interfaces to achieve this. Example: in your Activity3, create an interface:
interface Communicator {
void receiveData(Object toSend);
}
Then you implement your Activity2 as follows:
public class Activity2 extends Activity implements Activity3.Communicator, Serializable {
//You'll have to implement the method
public void receiveData(Object toSend) {
//do what you have to do with your object once it's been sent back.
}
}
In order to use this pattern, you'll have to use an intent to start Activity3 like you did. I used Serializable because you want to pass an instance of the Activity through the Intent:
Intent intent = new Intent(this, Activity3.class);
intent.putExtra("activity2", this);
startActivity(intent);
You retrieve the Activity2 object in Activity3 in its onCreate method:
public class Activity3 extends Activity {
private Communicator mActivity2; //your activity
private Object mData; //Whatever object you want to send
public void onCreate(Bundle bundle) {
//...
Intent intent = getIntent();
Serializable object = intent.getSerializableExtra("activity2");
if (object != null && object instanceof Communicator) {
//make sure the object is not null and implements the Communicator
mActivity2 = (Communicator) object;
}
}
}
Once you are done in your Activity3 (once it is closed), you implement a method like onBackPressed or onDestroy as follows:
#Override
public void onDestroy() { //better if the back button is not pressed
super.onDestroy();
if (mActivity2 != null) { //check if is not null
mActivity2.receiveData(mData);
}
}
And your Activity should be updated without using intents.
By the way, using Fragments using this pattern is MUCH better than Activities. You should use fragments instead.
I have two activities:
ListViewActivity
AddActivity
and one object class :
todoObj
I have a list view in my ListViewActivity activity and when I click add button this will initiate AddActivity . In AddActivity when user enters Title, choose date, time and the category I want AddActivity to create a todo object and pass this back to the ListViewActivity.
Sorry I could not share the code itself, it always gives this error all the time so I uploaded on github please check it out.
Sorry again.
Many thanks.
All you have to fix onActivityResult method in ListViewActivity:
Because of you setting result code ADD_REQUEST_CODE in AddActivity "setResult(ListViewActivity.ADD_REQUEST_CODE, intent);", you should use "if (resultCode == ADD_REQUEST_CODE) {" in ListViewActivity not RESULT_OK.
You should receive intent from onActivityResult not ListViewActivity's intent. getIntent() gives ListViewActivity's intent. So use data variable:
onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data)
Final code:
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (requestCode == ADD_REQUEST_CODE) {
if (resultCode == ADD_REQUEST_CODE) {
Log.i("ListViewActivity", "Returned onActivityResult");
TodoObj todoObj = (TodoObj) data.getParcelableExtra("EXTRA_TODO");
Toast.makeText(ListViewActivity.this, "" + todoObj.getmYear(),
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
}
So, I've read some threads about this, but I can't get this to work.
Basically I have this Dialog in which the user chooses to take a new pic or select a pic from their gallery. Here is the code:
#Override
public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(getActivity());
builder.setCancelable(true)
.setItems(R.array.galeria_camera_array, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int userChoice) {
if (userChoice == 1) {
// take photo
}
if (userChoice == 0) {
Intent galleryIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(galleryIntent, 1);
}
}
});
return builder.create();
}
And then, the onActivityResult:
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
//choose file from gallery
}
Can anyone help? Before I have to re-read 10 pages worth of theory again... I'm quite new to this kind of things (onResult). Thank you.
Try implementing something like this in the activity where the dialog fragment is fired from:
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
Fragment fragment = getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.myFragmentId);
fragment.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
The underlining activity is what will receive onActivityResult, so u should be able to 'point' it towards onActivityResult of the dialog fragment.
The easy way to fix this is to move your fragment's onActivityResult into your activity, or you can use your activity's onActivityResult to call a method in your fragment.
I looked at my code and apparently I managed to get around this by calling this.getActivityForResult from my fragment, and then the result returned to my fragment, but I'll be honest with you: I don't remember writing this.
Ok, these two things made it work:
getActivity().startActivityForResult(galleryIntent, 1); You have to add getActivity()
As you guys said, you have to declare the onActivityResult() in the Activity itself.
Thanks guys!
I have a WebActivity that sets a JavascriptInterface for a WebView, on the Interface I have created various methods to be called with Javascript for different tasks, one of them is to send a file through Bluetooth.
The file sends just fine, but I want to inform the user when the file has already been accepted and transmited completely on the other end.
I am trying to use onActivityResult on my main WebActivity and also have tried on the separate class that handles the Bluetooth transmission and has a method called on the JavascriptInterface but I am not getting any callback results after the file is succesfully sent:
//First attempt
public class WebActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
//some code here
//Here I set the interface
myWebView.addJavascriptInterface(new WebAppInterface(this), "Android");
}
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode,
Intent data) {
if (requestCode == 0) {
//This message is shown after the file transfer has started but no
//finished
Toast.makeText(this, "File Sent", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
if(resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK){
//It doesn't work here either I always get Activity.RESULT_CANCELED (0)
//flag afer the file transfer has started
}
}
}
}
//Second Attempt
public class BluetoothTasks {
//code here
private void startTransferIntent() {
//some more code here
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.setType("text/plain");
File file_to_transfer = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() +
"/txtTransfer.txt");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM,Uri.fromFile(file_to_transfer));
//some more code here
Activity act = (Activity) mContext;
act.startActivityForResult(intent, TRANSFER_RESULT);
}
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode,
Intent data) {
if (requestCode == TRANSFER_RESULT) {
//Not working here either
//code that is not executed
}
}
}
Could you please tell me if there is a way to do this and if so how would be accomplished?. Thank you.
