This sample is a dummy messaging app, and just like any other 61messaging apps, it receives intents for sharing a plain text. When a user shares some text from some 62other app, this sample app will be listed as an option. Using the Direct Share feature, this app 63also shows some of contacts directly in the chooser dialog. 64 65To enable Direct Share, apps need to implement a Service extending 66[ChooserTargetService][2]. Override the method [onGetChooserTargets][3] and return a list of Direct 67Share options. 68 69In your AndroidManifest.xml, add a meta-data tag in your Activity that receives the Intent. Specify 70android:name as android.service.chooser.chooser_target_service, and point the android:value to the 71Service. 72 73[1]: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/service/chooser/package-summary.html 74[2]: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/service/chooser/ChooserTargetService.html 75[3]: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/service/chooser/ChooserTargetService.html#onGetChooserTargets(android.content.ComponentName%2C%20android.content.IntentFilter) 76 ]]> 77 </intro> 78 </metadata> 79</sample> 80
