i`m trying to send an email using native email client on android phone.
I have tried following ways to add an attachment to the mail...
method--1
Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
sendIntent.setType("image/jpeg");
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("file://sdcard/abc.jpg"));
method 2
Sending the image as body content---
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "<HTML><BODY><b><IMG**SRC=
\"data:image/jpeg;base64," + <imagepath> + "\"**alt = \"**pleaseview this
image\"/></b></BODY></HTML>");
i can successfully attach the image manually but when i tried to attach and send it programmatically the mail was sent without attachement.
Please let me know if there is a way to send an attachment programmatically by using email client
I think your problem is that you are not putting right the file path.
The following works for me:
Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
i.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
i.setType("image/jpg");
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("file:///sdcard/Pictures/
image.jpg"));
startActivity(i);
Note that file path has 3 "/", the first two for the "file://" header, the other because sdcard dir is inside the root of the filesystem, which is "/" in linux.
