Android Share - Facebook SDK - ShareActionProvider
- by Vlasto Benny Lava
I am trying to implement sharing a simple string inside my application. Obviously everything other than Facebook works. As far as I know, now I have to use their Facebook SDK to post statuses on a wall.
However, if I do implement it using their SDK, is there a way to have it incorporated into the chooser (default or ShareActionProvider) and somehow override it and insert the Facebook SDK's implementation?
Or do I have to create a dedicated button?
//EDIT
package com.example.shareactionproviderdemo;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Intent sharingIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
sharingIntent.setType("text/plain");
sharingIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "Test message");
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sharingIntent, "Share using"));
}
}
