Android: can't find startActivityForResult request_code

Question

I want to set an imageview and let the user to set his own image, i found how to do that on another question, but all the answers contains attribute for startActivityForResult function like PICK_IMAGE or SELECT_IMAGE or ACTIVITY_IMAGE_SELECTOR but my eclipse says that those are not defined , why ?

Edit

Intent intent = new Intent();
            intent.setType("image/*");
            intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
            startActivityForResult(
                    Intent.createChooser(intent, "Select Picture"), PICK_IMAGE);

@p i tried and still the same error, i update the question – user user Jan 19 '13 at 14:44 — user user, Jan 19 '13 at 14:44

Declare this variable on top :

int PICK_IMAGE = 101;

This is just a request code to match on your activity result.

it works, really thanks you , i will accept your answer, but please would you tell me how to find all the integer values for attribues ? – user user Jan 19 '13 at 14:47
and why my eclipse doesn't recognize `PICK_IMAGE` it self? – user user Jan 19 '13 at 14:48
@FernadoMargin there is no standard values for this. You can define any value for that. Adding one reference link with this for full example. – Pratik Sharma Jan 19 '13 at 14:49
sorry my english is bad, did u ask me to give you my code ?, i already did – user user Jan 19 '13 at 14:50

in your MainActvity.java:

public class MainActivity extends Activity
{
   static MainActivity instance= null;
   protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) 
   {
       super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
       instance = this; 
    }
}

and in your class make:

MainActivity.instance.startActivityForResult(intent,request_code);
