I am developing an android application(using Eclipse 3.5.2, Android 2.2) where i need to launch built-in contact from my app and pick a contact from there in a module. I am using the following code for that. I am fine launching to built-in contact, but when i select a contact, it comes back to ‘onActivityResult’ in my project, results crash as “Application stopped unexpectedly, force close”. I am testing on emulator with only one test contact added. Crash is happening at this line “Cursor cursor = managedQuery(intent.getData(), null, null, null, null);”
Could someone please tell me what i’m doing wrong here?
int PICK_CONTACT;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
SetupView();
}
private void SetupView()
{
final Button selectContactBtn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.selectcontactBtn);
//selectContactBtn.setText("Test Button Text");
selectContactBtn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK);
intent.setType(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_TYPE);
startActivityForResult(intent, PICK_CONTACT);
}
});
}
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent intent)
{
if ( requestCode==PICK_CONTACT && intent != null)
{
getContactInfo(intent);
}
}
protected void getContactInfo(Intent intent)
{
Cursor cursor = managedQuery(intent.getData(), null, null, null, null);// CRASH HERE
cursor.moveToNext();
String contactID = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts._ID));
String name = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME));
Toast.makeText(this, "Contact Name: "+name, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
