I got an takePictureIntent which is not null but it won't send it to the webview. Does anybody have an idea? It does work in older version 9 and under, it doesn't work in android version 10 & 11.
Intent takePictureIntent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
if (takePictureIntent.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null) {
// Create the File where the photo should go
File photoFile = null;
try {
photoFile = createImageFile();
takePictureIntent.putExtra("PhotoPath", mCameraPhotoPath);
Log.d("test", "Test1");
} catch (IOException ex) {
// Error occurred while creating the File
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "\"Unable to create Image File", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
// Continue only if the File was successfully created
if (photoFile != null) {
mCameraPhotoPath = "file:" + photoFile.getAbsolutePath();
takePictureIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT,
Uri.fromFile(photoFile));
} else {
takePictureIntent = null;
}
}
I get my Log so I know it's not null and it should have created the photoFile:
D/test: Test1
The app works if I select images:
Intent contentSelectionIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
contentSelectionIntent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_OPENABLE);
contentSelectionIntent.setType("image/*");
Intent[] intentArray;
if (takePictureIntent != null) {
intentArray = new Intent[]{takePictureIntent};
} else {
intentArray = new Intent[0];
}
Intent chooserIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CHOOSER);
chooserIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_INTENT, contentSelectionIntent);
chooserIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TITLE, "Image Chooser");
chooserIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_INITIAL_INTENTS, intentArray);
startActivityForResult(chooserIntent, INPUT_FILE_REQUEST_CODE);
return true;
Edit 1:
I tried to log the absoluet path if there is even an image and hat works as well. Why doesn't it put the image into the webview?
// Continue only if the File was successfully created
//if (photoFile != null)
//try{
mCameraPhotoPath = "file:" + photoFile.getAbsolutePath();
takePictureIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT,
Uri.fromFile(photoFile));
Log.d("test", photoFile.getAbsolutePath());
// } catch (Exception e) {
//takePictureIntent = null;
//Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "\"Something went wrong", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
// }
D/test: /storage/emulated/0/Pictures/JPEG_20210407140742_2243265910829120097.jpg

Or is there an alternative way to upload images to a webview?
