Does anyone have some helpful links to find out about Android Uri’s?
For example, you get a Uri back from a “take a picture” Intent. What does a URI look like and how do you use it. Why are they used instead of filenames or file handles?
The Dev documentation on the Uri class is practically worthless. http://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/Uri.html It is only clear if you already know exactly what it is, and how to use it.
Thanks for any links.
I’d check out the content providers section
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/providers/content-providers.html
It expalins URI’s for the different content providers and how they work.
