It's a game coded in c++ and I was trying to call shells commands to
open it, but I haven't had much luck.
Anybody can help me?
As I was searching I just got with this archived thread:
BTW, I've discovered that my XO has sugar-launch with the -u
parameter... so it seems that sometimes it open the webpage with the
Browser, but sometimes my game gets stuck and the Activity is not opened
and I have to reboot the machine.
Can be possible that the Browser activity is launched
Okay, so to summarize, the best practice for an activity to open a URI in
the browse activity is to not open a URI in the browse activity, but to open
a WebView instance in your own activity instead.
It will be nice when the intent system is ready. Good to know it should be

I'd suggest you use this approach for now, and switch to the intent
mechanism in the future. Both the switch to webkit and the design of
an intent mechanism are future projects. If they are scheduled well,
then all the places broken by the switch to webkit (not just in
To the best of my knowledge this is not supported and is a big elephant
in the room.
Intent system seems wonderful like a nice car, but not being able to
open a URI, is like having no shoes.

I agree with Sebastian here.
We can plan the long term solution, but right now we need a simple solution

In January I sent a patch to sugar-devel with minor changes to sugar-launch
so it would be able to pass the uri argument to the Browse activity (to open
