Thanks! While following your steps I get an error. In the application output it says; "Unable to start "pdapp.mediascanner"."
Using logcat I get:
I/ActivityManager( 712): START u0 {flg=0x10000000 cmp=pdapp.mediascanner/.MediaScanner} from uid 2000 on display 0 W/ActivityManager( 712): Permission Denial: starting Intent { flg=0x10000000 cmp=pdapp.mediascanner/.MediaScanner } from null (pid=21117, uid=2000) not exported from uid 10104 I/art (21117): System.exit called, status: 1 I/AndroidRuntime(21117): VM exiting with result code 1.And also this:
W/PackageManager( 1369): Failure retrieving resources for pdapp.mediascanner: Resource ID #0x0I followed your steps to the point.

Please make sure that you set the permissions to read and write external storage. Furthermore check consitent naming of your package and class names.
Which android version ar you targeting? Do you have installed the android sdk? -

Thanks!
I had forgotten permissions for reading externally.
Your solution works perfectly. -
Well, i tried a lot of ways and sendBroadcast() did not work for me. So maybe my way isnt the shortest one, but it works and thats what matters, doesnt it?
-
Create the android files "create Android APK"
-
set the package name, e.g. "aha.androscanner" in manifest
-
open manifest in text mode and replace android:name="org.qtproject.qt5.android.bindings.QtActivity" with android:name="aha.androscanner.AndroScannerInJava"
-
Create a subdirectory below the android folder, e.g. ...android/src/aha/androscanner
-
Put in a java file, named exactly like in point 3, e.g. AndroScannerInJava.java and add it to project
-
add "android: QT += androidextras" to your .pro file
-
Fill in the code
AndroScannerInJava.java
package aha.androscanner; import android.media.MediaScannerConnection; import android.os.Bundle; public class AndroScannerInJava extends org.qtproject.qt5.android.bindings.QtActivity { public static MediaScannerConnection s_mMs; @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { System.out.println("in the activity"); super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); s_mMs = new MediaScannerConnection(getApplicationContext(), null); s_mMs.connect(); } public static void scanForPicture(String name) { System.out.print("scan for picture -> "); System.out.println(name); s_mMs.scanFile(name, null); } }Within Qt code you call:
void MainWindow::saveThatPicture() { qDebug() << "saveThatPicture!"; QPixmap pix(700,700); pix.fill(Qt::red); QDir picDir = QDir(QStandardPaths::writableLocation(QStandardPaths::PicturesLocation)); QDir saveDir = QDir(picDir.filePath("aha")); if(!saveDir.exists()) picDir.mkdir("aha"); QString filePath = saveDir.filePath("test.jpg"); pix.save(filePath); QAndroidJniObject::callStaticMethod<void>("aha/androscanner/AndroScannerInJava", "scanForPicture", "(Ljava/lang/String;)V", QAndroidJniObject::fromString(filePath).object<jstring>()); }Manifest.xml
