Attributes

Remarks

Turn this item into HTML text, regardless of the type of data it actually contains.

The algorithm for deciding what text to return is: <ul> <li> If #getHtmlText is non-null, return that. <li> If #getText is non-null, return that, converting to valid HTML text. If this text contains style spans, Html#toHtml(Spanned) Html.toHtml(Spanned) is used to convert them to HTML formatting. <li> If #getUri is non-null, try to retrieve its data as a text stream from its content provider. If the provider can supply text/html data, that will be preferred and returned as-is. Otherwise, any text/* data will be returned and escaped to HTML. If it is not a content: URI or the content provider does not supply a text representation, HTML text containing a link to the URI will be returned. <li> If #getIntent is non-null, convert that to an intent: URI and return as an HTML link. <li> Otherwise, return an empty string. </ul>
