Android Question Help With Intent

[shashkiranr]

Hi ,

I am using an intent to call an activity in my application.

Dim In As Intent
    In.Initialize("","")
    In.SetComponent("com.bayalu.callmanager/.Contacts")

I am adding this intent in AHPreference Activity. i am getting this error saying activity not found.

What am i missing? what should be added in the manifest file?

android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: Unable to find explicit activity class {com.bayalu.callmanager/com.bayalu.callmanager.Contacts}; have you declared this activity in your AndroidManifest.xml?

Is this an activity in your app?
Why don't you call StartActivity instead?

Hi Erel,

I am using in this AHPreference Activity. I need a button kind of behavior in the list which will open an activity when clicked. As of now you can add only intents to it hence i am using it.

I see. It should be contacts instead of Contacts.

Yes it works i dint know you are not supposed to use activity name starting with Capital letter. Thank you
