7*d353a188SXin LiIntroduction
8*d353a188SXin Li------------
9*d353a188SXin Li
10*d353a188SXin Li[Direct Share][1] is a feature that allows apps to show their internal options directly in the
11*d353a188SXin Lisystem Intent chooser dialog. This sample is a dummy messaging app, and just like any other
12*d353a188SXin Limessaging apps, it receives intents for sharing a plain text. When a user shares some text from some
13*d353a188SXin Liother app, this sample app will be listed as an option. Using the Direct Share feature, this app
14*d353a188SXin Lialso shows some of contacts directly in the chooser dialog.
15*d353a188SXin Li
16*d353a188SXin LiTo enable Direct Share, apps need to implement a Service extending
17*d353a188SXin Li[ChooserTargetService][2]. Override the method [onGetChooserTargets][3] and return a list of Direct
18*d353a188SXin LiShare options.
19*d353a188SXin Li
20*d353a188SXin LiIn your AndroidManifest.xml, add a meta-data tag in your Activity that receives the Intent. Specify
21*d353a188SXin Liandroid:name as android.service.chooser.chooser_target_service, and point the android:value to the
22*d353a188SXin LiService.
