android - Getting audio file path or uri from mediastore -

i making application lists songs on device onto screen , clicking on them opens sharing intent songs / audio file can shared across various devices through different method bluetooth, whatsapp etc. not able file path or location of audio file mediastore.

this how getting songs-

public void getsonglist() {     //retrieve song info     contentresolver musicresolver = getactivity().getcontentresolver();     uri musicuri = android.provider.mediastore.audio.media.external_content_uri;     cursor musiccursor = musicresolver.query(musicuri, null, null, null, null);     //iterate on results if valid     if(musiccursor!=null && musiccursor.movetofirst()){         //get columns         int titlecolumn = musiccursor.getcolumnindex                 (android.provider.mediastore.audio.media.title);         int idcolumn = musiccursor.getcolumnindex                 (android.provider.mediastore.audio.media._id);         int artistcolumn = musiccursor.getcolumnindex                 (android.provider.mediastore.audio.media.artist);         int albumid = musiccursor.getcolumnindex                 (mediastore.audio.media.album_id);         int data= musiccursor.getcolumnindex(mediastore.audio.media.data);         int albumkey=musiccursor.getcolumnindex(mediastore.audio.media.album_key);         //add songs list         {             long thisid = musiccursor.getlong(idcolumn);             string thistitle = musiccursor.getstring(titlecolumn);             string thisartist = musiccursor.getstring(artistcolumn);             long thisalbumid = musiccursor.getlong(albumid);             string thisdata= musiccursor.getstring(data);             string albumkey = musiccursor.getstring(albumkey);             tempsonglist.add(new song(thisid, thistitle, thisartist, thisalbumid, thisdata, albumkey));          }         while (musiccursor.movetonext());      } } 

i storing songs in arraylist of class song below-

package com.musicplayer;  import android.content.contenturis; import android.content.context; import android.graphics.bitmap; import android.graphics.bitmapfactory; import android.graphics.drawable.bitmapdrawable; import android.graphics.drawable.drawable; import android.net.uri; import android.os.parcel; import android.os.parcelfiledescriptor; import android.os.parcelable;  import java.io.filedescriptor; import java.io.filenotfoundexception; import java.io.serializable;  /**  * created swappnil on 19-06-2015.  */ public class song  implements parcelable { private long id; private string title; private string artist, data, albumkey; private long alid;  public song(long songid, string songtitle, string songartist, long albumid, string thisdata, string albumkey) {     id=songid;     title=songtitle;     artist=songartist;     alid=albumid;     data=thisdata;     albumkey=albumkey;  } public song(){  } public long getid(){return id;} public string gettitle(){return title;} public string getartist(){return artist;} public long getalbumid(){return alid;} public string getpath(){return data;} public string getalbumkey(){return albumkey;}  @override public int describecontents() {     return 0; }  @override public void writetoparcel(parcel dest, int flags) {     dest.writestring(title);     dest.writestring(artist);     dest.writelong(alid);     dest.writelong(id);     dest.writestring(data);     dest.writestring(albumkey); } public static final parcelable.creator<song> creator = new parcelable.creator<song>() {     public song createfromparcel(parcel in) {         song song = new song();         song.title = in.readstring();         song.artist = in.readstring();         song.alid = in.readlong();         song.id = in.readlong();         song.data= in.readstring();         song.albumkey=in.readstring();         return song;     }      public song[] newarray(int size) {         return new song[size];     } }; } 

now when user clicks on song doing share this-

string sharepath = currsong.getpath();     uri uri = uri.parse(sharepath);     intent share = new intent(intent.action_send);     share.settype("audio/*");     share.putextra(intent.extra_stream, uri);     context.startactivity(intent.createchooser(share, "share sound file")); 

where currsong song on user has clicked. wrong. suggestions please.

so figured out problem in code, correct except uri generation part, had add "file:///" , worked. replaced

uri uri= uri.parse(song.getpath()); 

with

uri uri= uri.parse("file:///"+song.getpath()); 

and worked charm! hope else find useful!
