[solved] Qt 5.4: Send E-Mai with attachment on iOS

nando76

Hi,

like on Android i now want to implement native iOS code to send an e-mail with a file attached.

What i tried is the following:

Create an objective c interface:

@
@interface Mailer : UIViewController <MFMailComposeViewControllerDelegate>
{

}

(void) dealloc;
(void) sendMailWithAttachment: (NSString*) filename inView: (UIView*) uiview;
(void) mailComposeController:(MFMailComposeViewController*)controller didFinishWithResult:(MFMailComposeResult)result error:(NSError*)error;

@end

(void) sendMailWithAttachment: (NSString*) filename inView: (UIView*) uiview;
{
NSLog(@"Mailer:sendMailWithAttachment: create MFMailComposeViewController");

// [view addSubview: self];

MFMailComposeViewController *picker = [[MFMailComposeViewController alloc] init];
picker.mailComposeDelegate = self;
[picker setSubject:@"Check out this image!"];

// Fill out the email body text
NSString *emailBody = @"My cool image is attached";
[picker setMessageBody:emailBody isHTML:NO];

[self presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES];

[picker release];

}

@

The code gets called but i get the error:
@
Warning: Attempt to present <MFMailComposeViewController: 0x7ef9e7e0> on <Mailer: 0x7ef91720> whose view is not in the window hierarchy!
@

Any ideas how to solve this issue?

Or maybe there is an easier way on iOS to send a mail with attachment?

Greetings

Got it working with this code change:
@
[[UIApplication sharedApplication].keyWindow.rootViewController presentViewController:picker animated:NO completion:nil];
@

How did you manager to close the MFMailComposeViewController (e.g. when "didFinishWithResult" is called)?

Yes,
this is my didFinishWithResult method:

@- (void)mailComposeController:(MFMailComposeViewController*)controller didFinishWithResult:(MFMailComposeResult)result error:(NSError*)error
{
// Notifies users about errors associated with the interface
switch (result)
{
case MFMailComposeResultCancelled:
NSLog(@"Result: canceled");
break;
case MFMailComposeResultSaved:
NSLog(@"Result: saved");
break;
case MFMailComposeResultSent:
NSLog(@"Result: sent");
break;
case MFMailComposeResultFailed:
NSLog(@"Result: failed");
break;
default:
NSLog(@"Result: not sent");
break;
}

[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:NULL];

//[[UIApplication sharedApplication].keyWindow.rootViewController dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];

}@

Hope it helps...
