In Android 7, Contentresolver's Method-openassetfiledescriptor(vcarduri, "r") Returns Assetfiledescriptor Having Declaredlength As -1

In Android 7, getContentResolver().openAssetFileDescriptor(vCardUri, 'r') returns AssetFileDescriptor having declaredLength as -1 returned by getDeclaredLength(). Trying to export

Solution 1:

With the help of @pskink, I found the following solve my problem.

StringlookupKey= cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.LOOKUP_KEY));
        UrivCardUri= Uri.withAppendedPath(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_VCARD_URI, lookupKey);
        AssetFileDescriptor assetFileDescriptor;
        FileInputStream inputStream;
        try {
            assetFileDescriptor = getActivity().getContentResolver().openAssetFileDescriptor(vCardUri, "r");
            if (assetFileDescriptor != null) {
                inputStream = assetFileDescriptor.createInputStream();
                return readAsByteArray(inputStream);
            }
        } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
            Log.e(TAG, "Vcard for the contact " + lookupKey + " not found", e);
        } catch (IOException e) {
            Log.e(TAG, "Problem creating stream from the assetFileDescriptor.", e);
        }

where the readAsByteArray() is written using the code from Mihai Snippet.

Thank you @pskink

Solution 2:

In your code you are you are using the openAssestFileDescriptor instead use the openFileDescriptor because openAssestFileDescriptor is use to read a file in your asset folder not the file Uri

Solution 3:

In Android Nougat :

byte[] b = newbyte[(int)fd.getDeclaredLength()];

fd.getDeclaredLength() return -1.

Check my answer here link.

Solution 4:

replace this

AssetFileDescriptorassetFileDescriptor= activity.getContentResolver().openAssetFileDescriptor(uri, "r");
FileInputStreamfis= assetFileDescriptor.createInputStream();
byte[] buf = newbyte[(int) assetFileDescriptor.getDeclaredLength()];

with this

AssetFileDescriptorassetFileDescriptor= activity.getContentResolver().openAssetFileDescriptor(uri, "r");
FileInputStreamfis= assetFileDescriptor.createInputStream();
byte[] buf = newbyte[fis.available()];
