This will cause the KStest Email Dialog to fail (will not attach sound file)
1.BaseUI>Views>Email dialog
2.select an image when prompted, add a valid email you can check and send
3.check sent email
results: text and image are sent, cricket.wav file was not sent.
We have a professional customer that needs this fixed ASAP and is asking if it could be prioritized. Helpdesk ticket #8758
By looking at the default Android email app#s source code (I was looking at android-2.1_r2), I can see why this doesnt work in that app. If you have multiple attachments (using Intent.ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE and intent.putParcelableArrayListExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uris) ), the attachments will only get added if they are content urls -- no file:// urls get attached.
Pushed to and tested with 1_6_X as well. See api doc update for limitations with Android "MAil" app (the free, open source email app that is also on some handsets): https://github.com/appcelerator/titanium_mobile/blob/1_7_X/apidoc/Titanium/UI/EmailDialog.tdoc#L45
Pushed to 1_7_X
Closing issue Tested with Ti Studio build 1.0.8.201201262211 Ti Mob SDK 1.9.0.v20120207171634 OSX Lion 10.7.2 Nexus S OS 2.3.6 Tested with KS test to verify expected behavior and email was sent with multiple attachments correctly
