title: Android: Image gallery share to app
body: <p>I've got an app that accepts images from the image gallery (via share menu). My app starts, and I do this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>    Bundle bundle = getIntent().getExtras();
      Object obj = bundle.get("android.intent.extra.STREAM");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>While debugging, Eclipse is reporting the object obj is of type 'Uri@StringUri' (???) and inside it somewhere is the string 'content://media/external/images/media/992'. Anybody know what type of object obj is so I can typecast it? And what's the string about? IE, how do I get to the image data?</p>
