Multiple images upload code not working. What am I missing? - java

I'm developing an Android app in which the user will be asked to upload 2 images from his phone gallery.
My activity has one "Upload" button + 2 ImageViews to show the selected images before proceeding to the next activity.
Everything seems to work fine but both ImageViews are filled with just one of the images I select and I don't know why.
I searched on Google and on this website finding a lot of similar questions, but none of them helped me. Since I'm not an expert I could be missing something stupid and easy, but I'm quite lost at this point and decided to create a post.
Here is my Java code from the activity:
public class UploadActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
//Button and ImageViews have the same names for layout IDs
Button uploadBtn;
ImageView imgOne;
ImageView imgTwo;
public static final int PICK_IMAGE = 100;
public static Uri imgUri1;
public static Uri imgUri2;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_upload);
uploadBtn = (Button)findViewById(R.id.uploadBtn);
imgOne = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imgOne);
imgTwo = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imgTwo);
uploadBtn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
openGallery();
}
});
}
private void openGallery() {
Intent gallery = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, MediaStore.Images.Media.INTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
gallery.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_ALLOW_MULTIPLE, true);
startActivityForResult(gallery, PICK_IMAGE);
}
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if(resultCode == RESULT_OK && requestCode == PICK_IMAGE) {
imgUri1 = data.getData();
imgOne.setImageURI(imgUri1);
imgUri2 = data.getData();
imgTwo.setImageURI(imgUri2);
}
}
}
This code works but shows just one selected image for BOTH ImageViews.
Looks like it's skipping the second image and assigns its ImageView to the first one more time.

Your Problem is this piece of code:
imgUri1 = data.getData();
imgOne.setImageURI(imgUri1);
imgUri2 = data.getData();
imgTwo.setImageURI(imgUri2);
You set imgUri1 AND imgUri2 to data.getData(). So imgUri1 and imgUri2 are exact the same. So you set the same Uri to both imageViews.

Maybe should set data to array data[0]=data1fromimg1 and data[1]=data2fromimg1
in your code like this
<br>
imgUri1 = data[0].getData();<br>
imgOne.setImageURI(imgUri1);<br>
imgUri2 = data[1].getData();<br>
imgTwo.setImageURI(imgUri2);
make sure that receive data

Solved by myself after many tries.
The solution was to use a for like this:
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if(requestCode == PICK_IMAGE && resultCode == RESULT_OK && data.getClipData() != null) {
int count = data.getClipData().getItemCount();
for(int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
Uri screen = data.getClipData().getItemAt(i).getUri();
imgUri1 = data.getClipData().getItemAt(0).getUri();
imgOne.setImageURI(imgUri1);
imgUri2 = data.getClipData().getItemAt(1).getUri();
imgTwo.setImageURI(imgUri2);
}
}
}

How to pass a callback method between Xamarin Android activites [duplicate]

In my activity, I'm calling a second activity from the main activity by startActivityForResult. In my second activity, there are some methods that finish this activity (maybe without a result), however, just one of them returns a result.
For example, from the main activity, I call a second one. In this activity, I'm checking some features of a handset, such as does it have a camera. If it doesn't have then I'll close this activity. Also, during the preparation of MediaRecorder or MediaPlayer if a problem happens then I'll close this activity.
If its device has a camera and recording is done completely, then after recording a video if a user clicks on the done button then I'll send the result (address of the recorded video) back to the main activity.
How do I check the result from the main activity?
From your FirstActivity, call the SecondActivity using the startActivityForResult() method.
For example:
int LAUNCH_SECOND_ACTIVITY = 1
Intent i = new Intent(this, SecondActivity.class);
startActivityForResult(i, LAUNCH_SECOND_ACTIVITY);
In your SecondActivity, set the data which you want to return back to FirstActivity. If you don't want to return back, don't set any.
For example: In SecondActivity if you want to send back data:
Intent returnIntent = new Intent();
returnIntent.putExtra("result",result);
setResult(Activity.RESULT_OK,returnIntent);
finish();
If you don't want to return data:
Intent returnIntent = new Intent();
setResult(Activity.RESULT_CANCELED, returnIntent);
finish();
Now in your FirstActivity class, write the following code for the onActivityResult() method.
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == LAUNCH_SECOND_ACTIVITY) {
if(resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK){
String result=data.getStringExtra("result");
}
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_CANCELED) {
// Write your code if there's no result
}
}
} //onActivityResult
To implement passing data between two activities in a much better way in Kotlin, please go through 'A better way to pass data between Activities'.
How to check the result from the main activity?
You need to override Activity.onActivityResult() and then check its parameters:
requestCode identifies which app returned these results. This is defined by you when you call startActivityForResult().
resultCode informs you whether this app succeeded, failed, or something different
data holds any information returned by this app. This may be null.
Example
To see the entire process in context, here is a supplemental answer. See my fuller answer for more explanation.
MainActivity.java
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
// Add a different request code for every activity you are starting from here
private static final int SECOND_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE = 0;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
}
// "Go to Second Activity" button click
public void onButtonClick(View view) {
// Start the SecondActivity
Intent intent = new Intent(this, SecondActivity.class);
startActivityForResult(intent, SECOND_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE);
}
// This method is called when the second activity finishes
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
// check that it is the SecondActivity with an OK result
if (requestCode == SECOND_ACTIVITY_REQUEST_CODE) {
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) { // Activity.RESULT_OK
// get String data from Intent
String returnString = data.getStringExtra("keyName");
// set text view with string
TextView textView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView);
textView.setText(returnString);
}
}
}
}
SecondActivity.java
public class SecondActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_second);
}
// "Send text back" button click
public void onButtonClick(View view) {
// get the text from the EditText
EditText editText = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText);
String stringToPassBack = editText.getText().toString();
// put the String to pass back into an Intent and close this activity
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.putExtra("keyName", stringToPassBack);
setResult(RESULT_OK, intent);
finish();
}
}
Complementing the answer from Nishant, the best way to return the activity result is:
Intent returnIntent = getIntent();
returnIntent.putExtra("result",result);
setResult(RESULT_OK,returnIntent);
finish();
I was having a problem with
new Intent();
Then I found out that the correct way is using
getIntent();
to get the current intent.
startActivityForResult: Deprecated in Android X
For the new way we have registerForActivityResult.
In Java :
// You need to create a launcher variable inside onAttach or onCreate or global, i.e, before the activity is displayed
ActivityResultLauncher<Intent> launchSomeActivity = registerForActivityResult(
new ActivityResultContracts.StartActivityForResult(),
new ActivityResultCallback<ActivityResult>() {
#Override
public void onActivityResult(ActivityResult result) {
if (result.getResultCode() == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
Intent data = result.getData();
// your operation....
}
}
});
public void openYourActivity() {
Intent intent = new Intent(this, SomeActivity.class);
launchSomeActivity.launch(intent);
}
In Kotlin :
var resultLauncher = registerForActivityResult(StartActivityForResult()) { result ->
if (result.resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
val data: Intent? = result.data
// your operation...
}
}
fun openYourActivity() {
val intent = Intent(this, SomeActivity::class.java)
resultLauncher.launch(intent)
}
Advantage:
The new way is reduce complexity which we faced when we call the activity from a fragment or from another activity
Easily ask for any permission and get callback
For those who have problem with wrong requestCode in onActivityResult
If you are calling startActivityForResult() from your Fragment, the requestCode is changed by the Activity that owns the Fragment.
If you want to get the correct resultCode in your activity try this:
Change:
startActivityForResult(intent, 1); To:
getActivity().startActivityForResult(intent, 1);
The ActivityResultRegistry is the recommended approach
ComponentActivity now provides an ActivityResultRegistry that lets you handle the startActivityForResult()+onActivityResult() as well as requestPermissions()+onRequestPermissionsResult() flows without overriding methods in your Activity or Fragment, brings increased type safety via ActivityResultContract, and provides hooks for testing these flows.
It is strongly recommended to use the Activity Result APIs introduced in Android 10 Activity 1.2.0-alpha02 and Fragment 1.3.0-alpha02.
Add this to your build.gradle
def activity_version = "1.2.0-beta01"
// Java language implementation
implementation "androidx.activity:activity:$activity_version"
// Kotlin
implementation "androidx.activity:activity-ktx:$activity_version"
How to use the pre-built contract
This new API has the following pre-built functionalities
TakeVideo
PickContact
GetContent
GetContents
OpenDocument
OpenDocuments
OpenDocumentTree
CreateDocument
Dial
TakePicture
RequestPermission
RequestPermissions
An example that uses the takePicture contract:
private val takePicture = prepareCall(ActivityResultContracts.TakePicture()) { bitmap: Bitmap? ->
// Do something with the Bitmap, if present
}
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
button.setOnClickListener { takePicture() }
}
So what’s going on here? Let’s break it down slightly. takePicture is just a callback which returns a nullable Bitmap - whether or not it’s null depends on whether or not the onActivityResult process was successful. prepareCall then registers this call into a new feature on ComponentActivity called the ActivityResultRegistry - we’ll come back to this later. ActivityResultContracts.TakePicture() is one of the built-in helpers which Google have created for us, and finally invoking takePicture actually triggers the Intent in the same way that you would previously with Activity.startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_CODE).
How to write a custom contract
A simple contract that takes an Int as an input and returns a string that the requested Activity returns in the result Intent.
class MyContract : ActivityResultContract<Int, String>() {
companion object {
const val ACTION = "com.myapp.action.MY_ACTION"
const val INPUT_INT = "input_int"
const val OUTPUT_STRING = "output_string"
}
override fun createIntent(input: Int): Intent {
return Intent(ACTION)
.apply { putExtra(INPUT_INT, input) }
}
override fun parseResult(resultCode: Int, intent: Intent?): String? {
return when (resultCode) {
Activity.RESULT_OK -> intent?.getStringExtra(OUTPUT_STRING)
else -> null
}
}
}
class MyActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
private val myActionCall = prepareCall(MyContract()) { result ->
Log.i("MyActivity", "Obtained result: $result")
}
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
...
button.setOnClickListener {
myActionCall(500)
}
}
}
Check this official documentation for more information.
If you want to update the user interface with the activity result, you can't to use this.runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {}. Doing this, the UI won't refresh with the new value. Instead, you can do this:
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED) {
return;
}
global_lat = data.getDoubleExtra("LATITUDE", 0);
global_lng = data.getDoubleExtra("LONGITUDE", 0);
new_latlng = true;
}
#Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
if(new_latlng)
{
PhysicalTagProperties.this.setLocation(global_lat, global_lng);
new_latlng=false;
}
}
This seems silly, but it works pretty well.
In Kotlin
Suppose A & B are activities the navigation is from A -> B
We need the result back from A <- B
in A
// calling the Activity B
resultLauncher.launch(Intent(requireContext(), B::class.java))
// we get data in here from B
private var resultLauncher =
registerForActivityResult(ActivityResultContracts.StartActivityForResult()) { result ->
when (result.resultCode) {
Activity.RESULT_OK -> {
result.data?.getStringExtra("VALUE")?.let {
// data received here
}
}
Activity.RESULT_CANCELED -> {
// cancel or failure
}
}
}
In B
// Sending result value back to A
if (success) {
setResult(RESULT_OK, Intent().putExtra("VALUE", value))
} else {
setResult(RESULT_CANCELED)
}
It is a very common problem on Android
It can be broken down into three pieces
Start Activity B (happens in Activity A)
Set requested data (happens in activity B)
Receive requested data (happens in activity A)
startActivity B
Intent i = new Intent(A.this, B.class);
startActivity(i);
Set requested data
In this part, you decide whether you want to send data back or not when a particular event occurs.
E.g.: In activity B there is an EditText and two buttons b1, b2.
Clicking on Button b1 sends data back to activity A.
Clicking on Button b2 does not send any data.
Sending data
b1......clickListener
{
Intent resultIntent = new Intent();
resultIntent.putExtra("Your_key", "Your_value");
setResult(RES_CODE_A, resultIntent);
finish();
}
Not sending data
b2......clickListener
{
setResult(RES_CODE_B, new Intent());
finish();
}
The user clicks the back button
By default, the result is set with Activity.RESULT_CANCEL response code
Retrieve result
For that override onActivityResult method
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (resultCode == RES_CODE_A) {
// b1 was clicked
String x = data.getStringExtra("RES_CODE_A");
}
else if(resultCode == RES_CODE_B){
// b2 was clicked
}
else{
// The back button was clicked
}
}
I will post the new "way" with Android X in a short answer (because in some case you does not need custom registry or contract). If you want more information, see: Getting a result from an activity
Important: there is actually a bug with the backward compatibility of Android X so you have to add fragment_version in your Gradle file. Otherwise you will get an exception "New result API error : Can only use lower 16 bits for requestCode".
dependencies {
def activity_version = "1.2.0-beta01"
// Java language implementation
implementation "androidx.activity:activity:$activity_version"
// Kotlin
implementation "androidx.activity:activity-ktx:$activity_version"
def fragment_version = "1.3.0-beta02"
// Java language implementation
implementation "androidx.fragment:fragment:$fragment_version"
// Kotlin
implementation "androidx.fragment:fragment-ktx:$fragment_version"
// Testing Fragments in Isolation
debugImplementation "androidx.fragment:fragment-testing:$fragment_version"
}
Now you just have to add this member variable of your activity. This use a predefined registry and generic contract.
public class MyActivity extends AppCompatActivity{
...
/**
* Activity callback API.
*/
// https://developer.android.com/training/basics/intents/result
private ActivityResultLauncher<Intent> mStartForResult = registerForActivityResult(new ActivityResultContracts.StartActivityForResult(),
new ActivityResultCallback<ActivityResult>() {
#Override
public void onActivityResult(ActivityResult result) {
switch (result.getResultCode()) {
case Activity.RESULT_OK:
Intent intent = result.getData();
// Handle the Intent
Toast.makeText(MyActivity.this, "Activity returned ok", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
break;
case Activity.RESULT_CANCELED:
Toast.makeText(MyActivity.this, "Activity canceled", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
break;
}
}
});
Before new API you had :
btn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(MyActivity .this, EditActivity.class);
startActivityForResult(intent, Constants.INTENT_EDIT_REQUEST_CODE);
}
});
You may notice that the request code is now generated (and hold) by the Google framework.
Your code becomes:
btn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(MyActivity .this, EditActivity.class);
mStartForResult.launch(intent);
}
});
First you use startActivityForResult() with parameters in the first Activity and if you want to send data from the second Activity to first Activity then pass the value using Intent with the setResult() method and get that data inside the onActivityResult() method in the first Activity.
In your Main Activity
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
findViewById(R.id.takeCam).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
Intent intent=new Intent(getApplicationContext(),TakePhotoActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("Mode","Take");
startActivity(intent);
}
});
findViewById(R.id.selectGal).setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
Intent intent=new Intent(getApplicationContext(),TakePhotoActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("Mode","Gallery");
startActivity(intent);
}
});
}
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
}
In Second Activity to Display
private static final int CAMERA_REQUEST = 1888;
private ImageView imageView;
private static final int MY_CAMERA_PERMISSION_CODE = 100;
private static final int PICK_PHOTO_FOR_AVATAR = 0;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_take_photo);
imageView=findViewById(R.id.imageView);
if(getIntent().getStringExtra("Mode").equals("Gallery"))
{
pickImage();
}
else {
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) {
if (checkSelfPermission(Manifest.permission.CAMERA) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
requestPermissions(new String[]{Manifest.permission.CAMERA}, MY_CAMERA_PERMISSION_CODE);
} else {
Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
startActivityForResult(cameraIntent, CAMERA_REQUEST);
}
}
}
}
public void pickImage() {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK);
intent.setType("image/*");
startActivityForResult(intent, PICK_PHOTO_FOR_AVATAR);
}
#Override
public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, #NonNull String[] permissions, #NonNull int[] grantResults)
{
super.onRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults);
if (requestCode == MY_CAMERA_PERMISSION_CODE)
{
if (grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED)
{
Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
startActivityForResult(cameraIntent, CAMERA_REQUEST);
}
else
{
Toast.makeText(this, "Camera Permission Denied..", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
}
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == CAMERA_REQUEST && resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
Bitmap photo = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("data");
imageView.setImageBitmap(photo);
}
if (requestCode == PICK_PHOTO_FOR_AVATAR && resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
if (data == null) {
Log.d("ABC","No Such Image Selected");
return;
}
try {
Uri selectedData=data.getData();
Log.d("ABC","Image Pick-Up");
imageView.setImageURI(selectedData);
InputStream inputStream = getApplicationContext().getContentResolver().openInputStream(selectedData);
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(inputStream);
Bitmap bmp=MediaStore.Images.Media.getBitmap(getContentResolver(),selectedData);
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch(IOException e){
}
}
}
You need to override Activity.onActivityResult():
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (resultCode == RESULT_CODE_ONE) {
String a = data.getStringExtra("RESULT_CODE_ONE");
}
else if(resultCode == RESULT_CODE_TWO){
// b was clicked
}
else{
}
}

How to get an image from a fragment inside a fragment?

I have a project organized as follows:
AdminAddNewMerchantActivity
->TimeFragment
---->FindFoodAdminFragment
---->MapMerchantFagment
---->PriceFragment
---->StartFragment
---->EndFragment
->OrdersFragment
---->IncompleteOrders
---->CompleteOrders
PickImageActivity
where:
-> - a new subdirectory
----> - a subsubdirectory
I'm trying to pick an image and assign it. I successfully got it to work in PickImageActivity, but have problems getting the same code to work from FindFoodAdminFragment. The code for PickImageActivity that I use is as follows:
public class PickImageActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
ImageView image;
CircleImageView imageBanner;
private Uri imageUri, imageUri2;
private static final int GalleryPick = 1, GalleryPickBanner = 2;
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_pick_image);
.
.
.
image = findViewById(R.id.pi_input_merchant_image);
imageBanner = findViewById(R.id.pi_input_banner_image);
Intent galleryIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT,
android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(galleryIntent, GalleryPick);
.
.
.
}
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data)
{
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if((requestCode == GalleryPick) && (resultCode == RESULT_OK) && (data!=null))
{
imageUri = data.getData();
image.setImageURI(imageUri);
// Prevalent.currentMerchant.setImage();
}
else if((requestCode == GalleryPickBanner) && (resultCode == RESULT_OK) && (data!=null))
{
imageUri2 = data.getData();
imageBanner.setImageURI(imageUri2);
}
}
}
}
The problem is in startActivityForResult(galleryIntent, GalleryPick); I tried super.startActivityForResult(galleryIntent, GalleryPick); and getParentFragment().startActivityForResult(galleryIntent, GalleryPick); but it doesn't work. How do I get it to work from FindFoodAdminFragment?
I solved it by starting a new activity from FindFoodAdminFragment and using getIntent().getExtras() and intent.putExtra("myKey", myString) to transmit data between the activity and fragment. In an activity startActivityForResult works fine so I used it in the activity then onActivityResult activity is triggered. In onActivityResult i putExtra the imageUri, then I started another activity which contained FindFoodAminFragment and getExtras. Thanks for help all.

Meaning of a code related to GALLERY_REQUEST

I have used the following code to get a picture from the gallery in an app on clicking a button. It works fine but I just wanted to know the meaning of the codes used. Could someone help me in it?
private ImageButton mSelectImage;
public static final int GALLERY_REQUEST =1;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_post);
mSelectImage = (ImageButton)findViewById(R.id.imageSelect);
mSelectImage.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent galleryIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
galleryIntent.setType("image/*");
startActivityForResult(galleryIntent, GALLERY_REQUEST);
}
});
}
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if(requestCode == GALLERY_REQUEST && resultCode == RESULT_OK){
Uri imageUri = data.getData();
mSelectImage.setImageURI(imageUri);
}
}
This is the requestCode. It helps you to identify from which Intent you came back. For example if you have two or more intent for camera request and for the Contact request.Whenever the subsequently called finish and need to pass data back to Acivity, now you need to identify in your onActivityResult from which intent call you are returning from and put your handling logic accordingly.
public static final int CAMERA_REQUEST = 101;
public static final int CONTACT_VIEW = 202;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedState)
{
super.onCreate(savedState);
// For CameraRequest you would most likely do
Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
startActivityForResult(cameraIntent, CAMERA_REQUEST);
// For ContactReqeuest you would most likely do
Intent contactIntent = new Intent(ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("content://contacts/people/1"));
startActivityForResult(contactIntent, CONTACT_VIEW);
}
#Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data)
{
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_CANCELED) {
// code to handle cancelled state
}
else if (requestCode == CAMERA_REQUEST) {
// code to handle data from CAMERA_REQUEST
}
else if (requestCode == CONTACT_VIEW) {
// code to handle data from CONTACT_VIEW
}
}
GALLERY_REQUEST is a request code which is used like token, imagine you go into mall with bag, but they can't let you in with the bag so you have to put your bag outside the mall and guy will gives you a token, so when you will come back you give him that token and he will give your bag.
This token is managed just because you are not the only one who came with the bag there may be more, as the rule all person have to put their bag outside mall, but how to identify which bag belongs to which person,they used token.
Just like that request code is used, you may going to several other apps via implicit intent from your activity but when you came back, one method called for all intent: onActivityResult now you have request code to identify that from which activity is user coming from.

Android Studio : How to set an external file(photo from the camera) to an imageview

Having some trouble figuring out how to set the imageview to the picture I just captured with the camera. Would be a bonus if there was some way to display multiple captured pictures at once. Whenever I click the button, a previous image captured appears, then the camera opens, which isn't right. Id like the imageview to be blank, I click the button, take a picture, then that picture is displayed in the imageview. I believe that this line is out of place, but i'm unsure as to how/ where to move it. mimageView.setImageURI(outputFileUri);
public class cameraclass extends Activity {
int TAKE_PHOTO_CODE = 0;
public static int count = 0;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.camera);
final ImageView mimageView;
mimageView = (ImageView) this.findViewById(R.id.image_from_camera);
// Here, we are making a folder named picFolder to store
// pics taken by the camera using this application.
final String dir = Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES) + "/picFolder/";
File newdir = new File(dir);
newdir.mkdirs();
Button capture = (Button) findViewById(R.id.take_image_from_camera);
capture.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
// Here, the counter will be incremented each time, and the
// picture taken by camera will be stored as 1.jpg,2.jpg
// and likewise.
count++;
String file = dir+count+".jpg";
File newfile = new File(file);
try {
newfile.createNewFile();
}
catch (IOException e)
{
}
//Uri outputFileUri = Uri.fromFile(newfile);
Uri outputFileUri = FileProvider.getUriForFile(getApplicationContext() , "com.example.android.com220finalapp.provider", newfile);
Intent cameraIntent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
cameraIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, outputFileUri);
startActivityForResult(cameraIntent, TAKE_PHOTO_CODE);
mimageView.setImageURI(outputFileUri);
}
});
}
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == TAKE_PHOTO_CODE && resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
Log.d("CameraDemo", "Pic saved");
}
}
}
I believe that this line is out of place, but i'm unsure as to how/ where to move it.
startActivityForResult() is asynchronous. Your photo will not have been taken by the time that method returns. You need to load the image into the ImageView in onActivityResult(), if you got a RESULT_OK response.
However, while setImageURI() may work, it has never been an especially good idea, as it will freeze your app for a while as it loads the photo. There are many image loading libraries for Android that will handle loading your ImageView asynchronously.

onActivityResult in Fragment can't access UI elements

I have a button in Fragment when I press it I open a new activity for result but When I return back to my fragment I found all UI element = null
Please find the code
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
Intent intent = new Intent(getActivity(), MyActivity.class);
getActivity().startActivityForResult(intent, "3030");
}
});
when choose a value from activity I should back to fragment and set data to textview in the activity.
Intent intent = Activity.this.getIntent();
intent.putExtra("categoryId", id);
intent.putExtra("categoryName", name);
setResult(RESULT_OK, intent);
finish();
and I have put that in the activity that contains the fragment
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == 3030 && resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
Fragment fragment = mTabFragments.get(MyFragment.class.getName());
if (fragment != null) {
fragment.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
}
}
}
and in fragment
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == 3030 && resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
int categoryId = data.getIntExtra("categoryId", 0);
String categoryName = data.getStringExtra("categoryName");
mChooseCategoryTextView.setText(categoryName);
}
}
the problem now that mChooseCategoryTextView is null
Can anyone tell me what is the problem?
To get result in fragment
startActivityForResult(intent,REQ_CODE);
not
getActivity().startActivityForResult(intent,REQ_CODE);
I think the question how you initialise this view?
Since your lunching another activity so your whole fragment my be reconstruct or only onViewCreated recalled again.
So my guess is that you don't reinitialize or override mChooseCategoryTextView reference in one of fragment callbacks.
Try to add more logs and check what's happening for this reference
I believe the error is in the line
Fragment fragment = mTabFragments.get(MyFragment.class.getName());
I assume mTabFragments in an adapter of some sort? I'd have to look at it's code to be sure, but it sounds like it's not returning the right fragment. Make sure that the reference it's returning is the same as the fragment that is being shown on screen.
