UIActivityController to share URL file
ios, swift, swift3, uiactivityviewcontroller, xcode8
Solution
Try this:
@IBAction func btnExport(sender: AnyObject)
{
let someText:String = "Hello want to share text also"
let objectsToShare:URL = URL(string: "http://www.google.com")!
let sharedObjects:[AnyObject] = [objectsToShare as AnyObject,someText as AnyObject]
let activityViewController = UIActivityViewController(activityItems : sharedObjects, applicationActivities: nil)
activityViewController.popoverPresentationController?.sourceView = self.view
activityViewController.excludedActivityTypes = [ UIActivityType.airDrop, UIActivityType.postToFacebook,UIActivityType.postToTwitter,UIActivityType.mail]
self.present(activityViewController, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
Problem
I want to share an URL file that has been created in the app and a text. But it seems it only can share text and not any data like URL or `UIImage`. The code I am using: ``` let sharedVideo = Video(Title: _data[1], VideoID: _data[0], Duration: _data[3], ViewCount: _data[2]) let sharedURL = VideoManager.exportData(video: sharedVideo) let shareItems:Array = [sharedURL,"check this out baby!"] as [Any] let activityViewController = UIActivityViewController(activityItems: shareItems, applicationActivities: nil) self.present(activityViewController, animated: true, completion: nil) ``` Also I use an `UIImage` object instead of sharedURL to see If it has problem with URL or not. It doesn't work even with an image file. When I click on share button inside `UIActivityViewController`, It works just for text, no URL nor image. I am using Swift 3 in Xcode 8. Thanks. PS: I am sure about sharedURL object that it isn't nil nor undefined.
