Need to pass Skype a phone #

[myriaddev]

I can bring up Skype from my B4A app, but how do I
pass it a phone number as I am using this intent from thedesolatesoul:

Dim in As Intent
Dim pm As PackageManager
in = pm.GetApplicationIntent("com.skype.raider")
If in.IsInitialized Then StartActivity(in)
StartActivity(in)

Maybe use dial-er and Skype ? Thanks, Jerry

Try to search for their API. Whether it is possible and which key should be used is defined by their application.

Thanks for the help Erel!

I will look at Skype's API and other documentation and report back.

Here you go mate.

Sub mnuSkype_Click
   Dim i As Intent
   i.Initialize(i.ACTION_VIEW, "skype:" & user_name)
   i.SetComponent("com.skype.raider")
   i.PutExtra("confirm", "Yes")
   StartActivity(i)
End Sub

"user_name" is a variable containing the userid that you are making a call to.
