Yes, of course I can... For reference, what GMail (and Email) want is a cursor conforming to OpenableColumns, containing the name and size of the file (if known). Once the app has read those it'll try to open the file via ContentResolver#openInputStream(). So that bit's all working fine. However, I can't find a way of passing a stream through a ParcelFileDescriptor. I really don't want to have to write my file out to disk because figuring out when to clear up the temporary file becomes nasty. What I'd really like is a pipe, so that I can create the data as the email app asks for it --- but it doesn't appear to be possible to create a ParcelFileDescriptor from a pipe, or a unix socket, etc. Is there any way to do this? I may have to resort to creating a unix socket in my application sandbox and lying to GMail about it being a file. -- ┌─── ｄｇ＠ｃｏｗｌａｒｋ．ｃｏｍ ───── http://www.cowlark.com ───── │ │ "They laughed at Newton.
