Turning a string into a Uri in Android

Question

I have a string, 'songchoice'. I want it to become a 'Uri' so I can use with MediaPlayer.create(context, Uri)

How can I convert songchoice to the Uri?

Answer 1

Uri myUri = Uri.parse("http://www.google.com");

Here's the doc http://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/Uri.html#parse%28java.lang.String%29
