Nikhil Khandelwal updated CB-10795:
-----------------------------------
Priority: Minor (was: Major)
> [InAppBrowser] Circular loop if app had an intent-filter defined for the URL
> being opened
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-10795
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-10795
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Plugin InAppBrowser
> Reporter: Dan Polivy
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: Android, triaged
>
> Consider the following scenario:
> 1. App "X" has an intent-filter defined that says it can open URLs for
> "www.example.com". (e.g., using
> https://github.com/EddyVerbruggen/Custom-URL-scheme plugin)
> 2. App "X" wants to launch a specific URL on www.example.com in the system
> browser.
> 3. App "X" uses InAppBrowser plugin and calls {{window.open}} with
> {{_system}} as the target.
> Actual:
> Since the app itself has an intent-filter defined for "www.example.com",
> InAppBrowser will just re-launch the app with the intent. In some cases, if a
> default handler is not chosen, one will get a chooser, however the app will
> still be listed as the default option.
> Expected:
> The app should be able to launch the URL in the system browser to avoid a
> circular redirect.
> There is some discussion of this issue on stackoverflow:
> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18682833/how-to-exclude-a-specific-application-from-action-view-intent
> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/29529027/open-url-in-browser-even-though-my-app-registered-an-intent-filter-for-it
> I think it might be reasonable for InAppBrowser, in {{openExternal}}, to
> explicitly remove the current app from the list.
