i'm striking out trying to send an IM from an activity. email & sms were easy, but i can't get IM to work for some reason.
i googled around and found a method which used "imto" Uris, but the Uris so constructed crash HierarchicalUri.writeToParcel(), which is a long-standing bug IIRC - at least i ran into it using the Uri.Builder class a while back (issue reported). so then i tried ACTION_VIEW on type "vnd.android.cursor.dir/im-providers", which is a pattern i found in various places on the network. i thought this might give me a list of IM apps that the user can choose from. ideally it would let me populate the destination address, but i didn't see a way to do that. in any case, it seems like 1.6 running on my ADP couldn't find anyone to handle the activity, despite that type being declared in the stock IM app (from peeking at the source). i was kinda expecting a variant of the email code, but with a different content type. anyone successfully sending IMs? thanks! -- jason.vp.engineering.particle -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
