android - How do I get the actual path of the video sent to my app from Gallery via the ContentProvider URI? -


i have app in i'd view video file chose share gallery edited. know have use intent-filter tag in manifest of activity.

so here was, selecting video gallery app 'shared' app. when activity opens, used uri videouri = getintent().getparcelableextra(intent.extra_stream); retrieve uri of video. uri looks this:

content://com.google.android.apps.photos.contentprovider/-1/2/file%3a%2f%2f%2fdata%2fdata%2fcom.google.android.apps.photos%2fcache%2fshare-cache%2fmedia.tmp%3ffilename%3dimage.jpg/original/none/1804018524

i can play fine in mediaplayer, problem comes when have use library requires file [namely, mp4parser], , means file path - uri doesn't work.

i've parsed file%3a%2f%2f%2fdata%2fdata%2fcom.google.android.apps.photos%2fcache%2fshare-cache%2fmedia.tmp%3ffilename%3dimage.jpg part, , gives me:

file:///data/data/com.google.android.apps.photos/cache/share-cache/media.tmp?filename=image.jpg

the problem opening results in enoent. new file("/data/data/com.google.android.apps.photos/cache/share-cache/media.tmp").exists() returns false.

i've queried uri in cursor via getcontentresolver().query(uri, null, null, null, null) , logged values inside. got was:

_id:0 _display_name:image.jpg _size:2183131 mime_type:video/mpeg _data:null orientation:0 datetaken:0 latitude:null longitude:null special_type_id:null

my question: there way inquire actual path [either in file:// form or in content://media/external/videos/...] of video shared gallery app if uri sends out?

turns out needed open inputstream said uri via contentresolver, write fileoutputstream directed towards temporary file (right have temporary file inside app's filesdir), use data source instead.

android - InAppBilling registering BroadcastReceiver in AndroidManifest -

i'm implementing inapp billing in android app. works well, however, i'm trying decouple broadcast receiver activity manifest. suggestion in android's trivialdrive sample: // important: dynamically register broadcast messages updated purchases. // register receiver here instead of <receiver> in manifest // because call getpurchases() @ startup, therefore can ignore // broadcasts sent while app isn't running. // note: registering listener in activity bad idea, done here // because sample. regardless, receiver must registered after // iabhelper setup, before first call getpurchases(). currently there's class extends broadcastreceiver : public class iabbroadcastreceiver extends broadcastreceiver { /** * intent action receiver should filter for. */ public static final string action = "com.android.vending.billing.purchases_updated"; private final iabbroadcastlistener mlistener; public iabbroadcastreceiver(iabbroadcastlistener listener) { m...

sql server - Why does Linq-to-SQL add unnecessary COUNT()? -

here tables: create table customer ( cid int primary key, name varchar(32) ) create table ord ( oid int primary key, cid int foreign key references customer, address varchar(20) ) here's linq-to-sql statement: var aaa = c in db.customer select new { c, o = c.ord.tolist() }; and here's inexplicable query generated linq-to-sql: select [t0].[cid] [cid], [t0].[name] [name], [t1].[oid] [oid], [t1].[cid] [cid2], [t1].[address] [address], (select count(*) [dbo].[ord] [t2] [t2].[cid] = [t0].[cid]) [value] [dbo].[customer] [t0] left outer join [dbo].[ord] [t1] on [t1].[cid] = [t0].[cid] order [t0].[cid], [t1].[oid] i want understand how rid of count(*) part. it's entirely uncalled for! linq needs count(*) in order determine number of entries returned o = c.ord.tolist() .
