1. Defining a FileProvider
2. Specifying Available Files
3. Retrieving the Content URI for a File
4. Granting Temporary Permissions to a URI
5. Serving a Content URI to Another App

   <manifest>
       ...
       <application>
           ...
     <provider
       android:name="android.support.v4.content.FileProvider"
       android:authorities="packagename.fileprovider"
       android:exported="false"
       android:grantUriPermissions="true">
       <meta-data
           android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS"
           android:resource="@xml/file_paths" />
     </provider>
           ...
       </application>
   </manifest>
   --------------------
   xml package in res
   
   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
   <paths xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
       <root-path name="my_root" path="" />
       <files-path name="my_files" path="" />
       <cache-path name="my_cache" path="" />
       <external-path name="my_external" path="" />
       <external-files-path name="my_files_path" path="files" />
        <external-cache-path name="my_cache_path" path="cache" />
   </paths>
    

   specify a file

    String filename = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMddHHmmss", Locale.CHINA)
                       .format(new Date()) + ".png";
               File file = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(), filename);
               mCurrentPhotoPath = file.getAbsolutePath();
   

   retrieve a uri      uri format:content://authorities/定义的name属性/文件的相对路径

    Uri fileUri =null;
   if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 24) {
       fileUri = FileProvider.getUriForFile(this, "packagename.fileprovider", file);
   } else {
       fileUri = Uri.fromFile(file);
   }
   

   grant a permission

   context.grantUriPermission(packageName, fileUri, Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION
                       | Intent.FLAG_GRANT_WRITE_URI_PERMISSION);
   context.revokeUriPermission(Uri uri, int modeFlags);
   
   intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION|Intent.FLAG_GRANT_WRITE_URI_PERMISSION);
