SetDataSource(String)

Sets the data source (file-path or http/rtsp URL) to use.

[Android.Runtime.Register("setDataSource", "(Ljava/lang/String;)V", "GetSetDataSource_Ljava_lang_String_Handler")]
public virtual void SetDataSource (string? path);

[<Android.Runtime.Register("setDataSource", "(Ljava/lang/String;)V", "GetSetDataSource_Ljava_lang_String_Handler")>]
abstract member SetDataSource : string -> unit
override this.SetDataSource : string -> unit

Parameters

path

String

the path of the file, or the http/rtsp URL of the stream you want to play

Attributes

RegisterAttribute

Exceptions

IllegalStateException

if it is called in an invalid state

When path refers to a local file, the file may actually be opened by a process other than the calling application. This implies that the pathname should be an absolute path (as any other process runs with unspecified current working directory), and that the pathname should reference a world-readable file. As an alternative, the application could first open the file for reading, and then use the file descriptor form SetDataSource(FileDescriptor).

IOException

IllegalArgumentException

SecurityException

Remarks

Sets the data source (file-path or http/rtsp URL) to use.

RegisterAttribute

Exceptions

IllegalStateException

if it is called in an invalid state

IOException

IllegalArgumentException

Remarks

Sets the data source (FileDescriptor) to use. The FileDescriptor must be seekable (N.B. a LocalSocket is not seekable). It is the caller's responsibility to close the file descriptor. It is safe to do so as soon as this call returns.

SetDataSource(Context, Uri, IDictionary<String,String>, IList<HttpCookie>)

Sets the data source as a content Uri.

Parameters

context

Context

the Context to use when resolving the Uri

uri

Uri

the Content URI of the data you want to play

headers

IDictionary<String,String>

the headers to be sent together with the request for the data The headers must not include cookies. Instead, use the cookies param.

cookies

IList<HttpCookie>

the cookies to be sent together with the request

Attributes

RegisterAttribute

Remarks

Sets the data source as a content Uri.

To provide cookies for the subsequent HTTP requests, you can install your own default cookie handler and use other variants of setDataSource APIs instead. Alternatively, you can use this API to pass the cookies as a list of HttpCookie. If the app has not installed a CookieHandler already, this API creates a CookieManager and populates its CookieStore with the provided cookies. If the app has installed its own handler already, this API requires the handler to be of CookieManager type such that the API can update the manager’s CookieStore.

<strong>Note</strong> that the cross domain redirection is allowed by default, but that can be changed with key/value pairs through the headers parameter with "android-allow-cross-domain-redirect" as the key and "0" or "1" as the value to disallow or allow cross domain redirection.
