Hey guys, i need help.
I registered some file-extensions for my AIR-Android-App, so when a file is selected, my app receives an Invoke-Event in Flash/AS3 with the path to that file.This works fine for files/downloads/links.
However, some Applications provide a a content-uri instead of a direct file-path (e.g. eMail-attachments before they are downloaded, hell, even local download folders on newer Android OS).
e.g.:
content://gmail-ls/houseatreides@gmail.com/messages/6/attachments/0.1/BEST/false
QUESTION:
How can i turn this into something i can load in AIR/AS3.
Or how can i order the other application or a service to catch the file for me?
If its not possible in AIR, does anyone know of an ANE that gets the job done ?
I found a post how to do it native in Java.
Confirmation that it is (currently) not possible in AIR is also welcome. Thank you.
