String textToShare = "Learn something new at www.teamtreehouse.com";
// YOUR CODE HERE Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND); intent.setType("text/plain"); intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, textToShare); activity.startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent, "Share"));
String textToShare = "Learn something new at www.teamtreehouse.com";
// YOUR CODE HERE
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.setType("text/plain");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, textToShare);
activity.startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent, "Share"));

You don't need the initial activity
on your last line. Indeed, it is undeclared so unusable! Just call startActivity()
. Pass in the Intent
you created and chain (with dot notation) the createChooser()
method the challenge asks for. That's pretty much it! So, your last line should look like:
startActivity(intent.createChooser(intent, "Share"));
Let me know how you get on.
Steve.
