Description

We need the ability to cast a Ti Intent to a native Android Intent so we can use the method getParcelableExtra. Unfortunately Hyperloop throws an error when casting. Here is the simple way to reproduce:

var Intent = require('android.content.Intent');
var intent = Ti.Android.createIntent();
var nativeIntent = new Intent(intent); // Fails

{quote} [ERROR] : HyperloopProxy: (main) [209,209] Unable to find matching constructor for class: android.content.Intent, args: [org.appcelerator.titanium.proxy.IntentProxy@1a8a7c43] {quote}

Test-case:

   var Intent = require('android.content.Intent');
   var Activity = require('android.app.Activity');
   var Uri = require("android.net.Uri");
   
   var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({
       backgroundColor: "#fff"
   });
   
   var btn = Ti.UI.createButton({
       title: "Trigger"
   });
   
   btn.addEventListener("click", openIntent);
   
   win.add(btn);
   win.open();
   
   function openIntent() {
       var activity = new Activity(Ti.Android.currentActivity);
       
       var intent = Ti.Android.createIntent({
           action: Ti.Android.ACTION_VIEW
       });
       
       var nativeIntent = new Intent(intent);
       nativeIntent.setData(Uri.parse("sms://"));
       nativeIntent.putExtra("sms_body", "Hello world!"); 
       
       activity.startActivity(nativeIntent);
   }
