ResolveActivity(Intent, PackageInfoFlags)

Determine the best action to perform for a given Intent.

[Android.Runtime.Register("resolveActivity", "(Landroid/content/Intent;I)Landroid/content/pm/ResolveInfo;", "GetResolveActivity_Landroid_content_Intent_IHandler")]
public abstract Android.Content.PM.ResolveInfo? ResolveActivity (Android.Content.Intent intent, Android.Content.PM.PackageInfoFlags flags);

[<Android.Runtime.Register("resolveActivity", "(Landroid/content/Intent;I)Landroid/content/pm/ResolveInfo;", "GetResolveActivity_Landroid_content_Intent_IHandler")>]
abstract member ResolveActivity : Android.Content.Intent * Android.Content.PM.PackageInfoFlags -> Android.Content.PM.ResolveInfo

Parameters

intent

Intent

An intent containing all of the desired specification (action, data, type, category, and/or component).

flags

PackageInfoFlags

Additional option flags to modify the data returned. The most important is #MATCH_DEFAULT_ONLY, to limit the resolution to only those activities that support the android.content.Intent#CATEGORY_DEFAULT.

Returns

ResolveInfo

Returns a ResolveInfo object containing the final activity intent that was determined to be the best action. Returns null if no matching activity was found. If multiple matching activities are found and there is no default set, returns a ResolveInfo object containing something else, such as the activity resolver.

Attributes

RegisterAttribute

Remarks

Determine the best action to perform for a given Intent. This is how Intent#resolveActivity finds an activity if a class has not been explicitly specified.

<em>Note:</em> if using an implicit Intent (without an explicit ComponentName specified), be sure to consider whether to set the #MATCH_DEFAULT_ONLY only flag. You need to do so to resolve the activity in the same way that android.content.Context#startActivity(Intent) and android.content.Intent#resolveActivity(PackageManager) Intent.resolveActivity(PackageManager) do.

Use #resolveActivity(Intent, ResolveInfoFlags) when long flags are needed.
