'Download manager uri is returing a number instead of the file location in android
I have a broadcast receiver for android that is supposed to open an intent to a pdf i am downloading but when it opens up the intent it opens a blank pdf, when i debug it it's giving me content://downloads/all_downloads/431 as the location instead of the file, the 431 is the dowload number and increases each time i download the pdf, my receiver looks like this.
override fun onReceive(context: Context?, intent: Intent) {
val action = intent.action
if (DownloadManager.ACTION_DOWNLOAD_COMPLETE.equals(action)) {
val manager = context!!.getSystemService(Context.DOWNLOAD_SERVICE) as DownloadManager
val completeDownloadId = intent.getLongExtra(DownloadManager.EXTRA_DOWNLOAD_ID, -1)
var uri: Uri? = manager.getUriForDownloadedFile(completeDownloadId)
Log.d("BROADCASTEND", uri.toString())
val intent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW)
intent.data = uri
MApplication.currentActivity.startActivity(intent)
}
}
does anyone know why it opens a blank pdf and references the number instead of the file? i can see that it is downloading the pdf.
