My app uses the below intent filter to make itself an xml file reader for the purpose of inserted data shared between users. This works fine with xml files viewed in the browser but I can not make it work with xml files sent as email attachments in the gmail app.
<intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" /> <data android:mimeType="text/xml" /> </intent-filter> When I check the logcat output I can see that the gmail app starts downloading the attachment when I press the "Preview" button, but as soon as my activity is brought to the front the attachment download is cancelled and there is no data to parse. I see in the intent created from the gmail app there are a couple of ID numbers for the attachment. Perhaps someone has used these ID numbers to grab file attachments from the gmail servers? Anyone interested in how I am handling XML files so far please feel free to peruse the source of my project at http://code.google.com/p/bites-android/source/browse/trunk/Bites/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
