> Hi,
> Before starting, I wanted to say that this is the first time I am using jira
> support for Apache Cordova. I don't even know if this is the right place or
> if the issue I have is allowed here but I tried other means and found no
> help. This is a very critical issue for me, any help will be highly
> appreciated.
> I am making an Android Launcher using Cordova (let's call it myApp) and as
> every launcher it should have an apps drawer. Clicking on any app icon should
> launch that app.
> Let me now describe two scenarios.
> 1) Android launcher is the default launcher for the system and myApp is
> installed as just any other app. In this case the code works fine, that is,
> the other apps launch fine from the apps drawer in myApp.
> 2) myApp is the default launcher for the system. In this case, the code does
> not work, that is, the other apps do not launch from the apps drawer in myApp
> or may be they launch or close very very fast.
> This is the code I have:
> private void launchApp(final String packageName) {
> final CordovaInterface mycordova = cordova;
> final CordovaPlugin plugin = this;
> Log.i("myApp", "Trying to launch app: " + packageName);
> cordova.getThreadPool().execute(new Runnable() {
> public void run() {
> try {
> Intent intent = new Intent("android.intent.action.MAIN");
> intent.addCategory("android.intent.category.LAUNCHER");
> final ComponentName cn = new ComponentName(packageName,
> cordova.getActivity().getApplicationContext().getPackageManager().getLaunchIntentForPackage(packageName).getComponent().getClassName());
> intent.setComponent(cn);
> intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
>
> cordova.getActivity().getApplicationContext().startActivity(intent);
> } catch (ActivityNotFoundException e) {
> Log.e("myApp", "Error: Activity for package" +
> packageName + " was not found.");
> e.printStackTrace();
> } catch (Exception e) {
> Log.e("myApp", "Error: " + e.getMessage());
> e.printStackTrace();
> }
> }
> });
> }
