Hello,
I am trying to register file extensions with my application, so that
the app menu-item appears when the file is shared (not opened). Also,
I want to register for file extensions and not MIME types. To
accomplish this, I added the following code to the manifest-
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND" />
<category
android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<data android:scheme="file" android:host="*"
android:pathPattern=".*\\.pdf" android:mimeType="*/*"/>
</intent-filter>
In this case, I would like my app to be an option when a PDF file is
shared (via the send/share menu). But this does not work and my app
icon does not show up. However, if I simply replace SEND by VIEW in
the code above, my app does get registered to handle the open intent
(why this difference in behavior between SEND and VIEW?).
Any pointers on how to resolve this shall be really appreciated.
Thanks,
Akshay
