Passing in a Bitmap as the EXTRA_STREAM parameter when launching an Intent

Question

From the JavaDoc, the EXTRA_STREAM parameter when launching an intent needs to be an URI. How can I pass a Bitmap object which I get from launching a "android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE" intent?

/**
     * A content: URI holding a stream of data associated with the Intent,
     * used with {@link #ACTION_SEND} to supply the data being sent.
     */
    public static final String EXTRA_STREAM = "android.intent.extra.STREAM";

Thank you.

I think you will have to save it to disk and pass a file: URI in the EXTRA_STREAM extra.
