Sending Mails using Intents

-

Using ACTION_SEND in intent for mail..

The code written below is using ACTION_SEND in the intent to generate mail which can be used to send the email to the single or multiple  person. firstly we will generate the intent with ACTION_SEND or ACTION_SENDTO. ACTION_SENDTO has one drawback that we can not add the attachment/files to the intent that we are sending. after setting the ACTION we will set up the intent with the type of the data that it is holding, for now we will use "message/rfc822", documentation on the type you can get here (rfc822). Now we will move on to the setting the parameters that we are going to pass to our email using the function putExtras(). after setting up parameters for the mail we will create a chooser and launch our intent.

NOTE: The Android device on which application is going to run must have already setup their mailing application.

CODE:

 Intent emailIntent=new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
 
//add the multiple or single reciever
String[] reciever={"abc@xyz.com","pqr@xyz.com"};
//set the type
 emailIntent.setType("message/rfc822");

//set the parameters using extras
 emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL,to);

// here Uri object to the file will be passed, for that use the FileProvider
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM,"here pass the Uri to the file"); 

// setting subject for mail
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT,"This is the Subject");

//writing text 
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT,"this is the BOdy text..");

//launching the chooser to select the mailing application from the available apps.
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent,"select mail..."));

ACTION_SENDTO is used to send the text body but we can not attach the file to it. targetsdkversion>=24

And if you want to add multiple file at once you can use ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE can be used to create the intent.

Intent emailIntent=new Intent(ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE); 
emailIntent.setType("message/rfd822");

//add the Uri to all the files that you want to share
ArrayList<Uri> myfiles = new ArrayList<Uri>();
 myfiles.add(Uri1);//add Uri object to the files
 myfiles.add(Uri2);
    ..
     ..
    ..
 myfiles.add(UriN);

//use the same code as above to generate the List of people with whom you
//want to share this file and put it on the emailIntent using //putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL,to) function

emailIntent.putParceableArrayListExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM,myfiles);






//launching the chooser to select the mailing application from the available apps. 



startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent,"select mail..."));







Hoping this would be the answer you have been looking for. If any doubt feel free to ask it in the comment section. AND ANOTHER THING TO NOTE IS THAT IF U_YOU ARE ACCESSING FILE USING URI AND YOUR targetsdkversion>=24 then You must use file Provider in order to Avoid FileUriExposedExceptiom.

Contest Leaderboard: hackerrank problem (Level medium)






-















  Problem Statement:  You did such a great job helping Julia with her last coding contest challenge that she wants you to work on this one, too!  The total score of a hacker is the sum of their maximum scores for all of the challenges. Write a query to print the hacker_id , name ,  and total score of the hackers ordered by the descending score. If more  than one hacker achieved the same total score, then sort the result by  ascending hacker_id . Exclude all hackers with a total score of  from your result.     Tables:   Hackers:  The hacker_id  is the id of the hacker, and name  is the name of the hacker.   Submissions:  The submission_id  is the id of the submission, hacker_id  is the id of the hacker who made the submission, challenge_id  is the id of the challenge for which the submission belongs to, and score  is the score of the submission.      Solutions:   select h.hacker_id,h.name,sum(sscore) from Hackers h inner join (select s.hacker_id,max(score) as sscore from Submissions s g

The Occupation: hackerrank problem






-















 Problem Statement:   Pivot  the Occupation  column in OCCUPATIONS  so that each Name  is sorted alphabetically and displayed underneath its corresponding Occupation . The output column headers should be Doctor , Professor , Singer , and Actor , respectively.  Note: Print NULL  when there are no more names corresponding to an occupation.   Table:      'OCCUPATIONS' table contain the column 'Name' and 'Occupation'    Solution:   select doc,prof,singer,act  from ( select row_number() over(partition by Occupation order by Name) ron,Name as n,Occupation as o  from OCCUPATIONS ) pro  pivot  (max(n)   for o in ('Doctor' as doc,'Actor' as act,'Professor' as prof,'Singer' as singer))   order by ron asc;   Explanation: in the above query statement i am using row_number() function with the 'partition by' clause to append one column that contains row_number for each row in the subquery. in the subquery while assigning row_number() we

  Problem:   You are given three tables:  Students ,  Friends and  Packages.   Students  contains two columns: ID  and Name . Friends  contains two columns: ID  and Friend_ID  ( ID  of the ONLY best friend). Packages  contains two columns: ID  and Salary  (offered salary in $ thousands per month).  Write a query to output the names of those students whose best friends  got offered a higher salary than them. Names must be ordered by the  salary amount offered to the best friends. It is guaranteed that no two  students got same salary offer.      Solution:   select temp1.sn from (select S.ID si,S.Name sn,P.Salary ps from Students S join Packages P on S.ID=P.ID) temp1 join (select FF.ID fi,FF.Friend_ID fd,PP.Salary pps from Friends FF join Packages PP on FF.Friend_ID=pp.ID) temp2 on temp1.si=temp2.fi and temp1.ps<temp2.pps order by temp2.pps asc ;     Explanation:   As the problem states that we have to select the name of the friend whose salary is lesser than what his/her friend is ha
