Attributes

Remarks

Add a new Intent data path to match against. The filter must include one or more schemes (via #addDataScheme) <em>and</em> one or more authorities (via #addDataAuthority) for the path to be considered. If any paths are included in the filter, then an Intent's data must match one of them. If no paths are included, then only the scheme/authority must match.

The path given here can either be a literal that must directly match or match against a prefix, or it can be a simple globbing pattern. If the latter, you can use '*' anywhere in the pattern to match zero or more instances of the previous character, '.' as a wildcard to match any character, and '\' to escape the next character.
