I am new to Android, and I'm struggling to figure out exactly what tools are available to me. I am developing for android 2.0.1 for now, just because that is what my device runs.

Specifically, I am writing an app that I would like to upload images to a picasa album. I am almost sure this is supported; for example, the built in (google?) photo viewer has a 'share' button with a picasa option, and even a small bit of sample code, including the snippet

[borrowed code! apologies if this is against the rules..]

temp.setComponent(new ComponentName 
("com.google.android.apps.uploader", 
"com.google.android.apps.uploader.picasa.PicasaUploadActivity")); 
startActivityForResult(temp, PICASA_INTENT) 

which looks like exactly what I want.
But I can find no documentation anywhere. I am in fact quite unclear how to use this type of resource. From within eclipse, do I need to include another project, com.google.android.apps.uploader? If so, how do I get it? How do I include it? Is there any working sample code provided for me to peer at?
