email send images exercise, with spinner of pre-defined subjects.

Refer to the last exercise "Start activity to send email with multiple images attached, with build-in MediaStore.Images.Media selector", it always send email with images attached. So I want to have a spinner with pre-defined email subjects for user to easy choice.

email send images exercise, with spinner of pre-defined subjects.

Create /res/values/array.xml to provide the pre-defined email subjects.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<string-array name="subject">
    <item>My Photos</item>
    <item>Share with you</item>
    <item>Please check</item>
    <item>Hello Friend</item>
</string-array>
</resources>


Modify layout to replace EditText of email subject with a <Spinner>.
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" 
    android:orientation="vertical">

    <TextView
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="@string/hello_world"
        tools:context=".MainActivity" />
    
    <TextView 
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="Enter email address:"/>
    <EditText 
        android:id="@+id/email_address"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:inputType="textEmailAddress"/>
    <TextView 
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="Choice Subject:"/>
    <Spinner
        android:id="@+id/spinner_subject"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
    <TextView 
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="Enter Text:"/>
    <EditText 
        android:id="@+id/email_text"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
    
    <Button
        android:id="@+id/send"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="Send"/>
    <ListView
        android:id="@+id/filelist"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

</LinearLayout>
