Android file chooser [closed] (2 answers)

Closed 8 years ago.

I am new to android development. I need to implement a file chooser/ Open-File-Dialog in my project. But I have found that android do not provide any built in support for this. So what is good solution on this? Should I use any Library or Manually build code for this?

I have taken overview of android-fileChooser & aFileChooser Libraries. Is there any other simple file chooser?

Thanks in advanced...

Use this following code to start a intent to a file chooser

Intent fileIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
fileIntent.setType("file/*"); // intent type to filter application based on your requirement
startActivityForResult(fileIntent, RESULT_CODE);
