My requirement is,when this class is called

I want to get a file from sdcard and send this file through email.

Solution

Add these inside onReceive method in your BroadcastReceiver.

   File file= new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()
                    + "/filefolder/"+"filename");
Uri u1  =   null;
u1  =   Uri.fromFile(file);

Intent sendIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
sendIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Sending a file");
 sendIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[] 
        {"[email protected]"}); 
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, u1);
sendIntent.setType("text/html");
context.startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sendIntent , "Send mail..."));
