android - Launch Intent from URL not working -
i made test android app trying have launch when browser hits url "blargh://yolo". not working; instead browser google search.
it brand new project created eclipse/adt; thing i've edited manifest, below:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="com.example.testurlscheming" android:versioncode="1" android:versionname="1.0" > <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.internet"/> <uses-sdk android:minsdkversion="8" android:targetsdkversion="17" /> <application android:allowbackup="true" android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher" android:label="@string/app_name" android:theme="@style/apptheme" > <activity android:name="com.example.testurlscheming.mainactivity" android:label="@string/app_name" > <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.main" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.launcher" /> </intent-filter> <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.view" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.default" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.browsable" /> <data android:scheme="blargh" /> </intent-filter> </activity> </application>
some web browsers, aosp browser app, treat address bar differently hyperlinks. hyperlinks route through check handles action_view
url. address bar assumed relevant browser app; if not recognize it, conducts search, if had typed blargh yolo
.
do know if works redirect?
i hope so. however, may browser-dependent. hope browser makers follow lead of browser (and, on time, chrome), that's not guaranteed.
