@Mark: thanks for your reply and greetings of the holiday season! The reason I used these MIME types was that I was just wanted a general classification of the files based on their extension, into these four categories. And deemed them appropriate/enough. A quick search shows that a mapping file for such a cause(mapping from File ext to actual MIME) already exists. Maybe I should consider using them.
I changed my code to the following and it worked: Intent myIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW); // MIME_TYPE could be either of: image/*, video/*, audio/*, text/* myIntent.setDataAndType(Uri.fromFile(tempFile), MIME_TYPE); -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
