My app has a ListView containing several audio files. If the user long clicks a ListViewItem it will share the selected audio file. I've read that in order to share something, first I have to copy the file to external storage and then share it. I've used the following code to do so:
private void copyToExternalStorage(String sourceFilePath, String fileName)
{
File sourceFile = new File(sourceFilePath);
String destinationPath = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath() + "/myApp";
File destinationFile = new File(destinationPath);
if (!destinationFile.exists())
destinationFile.mkdirs();
destinationFile = new File(destinationPath + "/" + fileName + ".mp3");
try
{
FileUtils.copyFile(sourceFile, destinationFile);
} catch (IOException e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
private void share(String file, String trackName)
{
copyToExternalStorage(file, trackName);
Intent shareIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
shareIntent.setType("audio/*");
String path = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath() + "/myApp/" +
trackName +
".mp3";
shareIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse(path));
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(shareIntent, "Share audio"));
}
@Override
public boolean onItemLongClick(AdapterView> adapterView, View view, int i, long l)
{
share(getResources().getStringArray(R.array.sounds)[i], getResources().getStringArray(R.array.tracks)
[i]);
return true;
}
R.array.sounds is where I stored my audio files, and R.array.tracks is where I stored the track names. The problem I'm getting is that my app does not find any files in the given sourceFilePath, therefore it doesn't copy nor share anything.
Any help will be much appreciated.
