Activity-
MainActivity.jav
a
An activity is a single, focused thing
that the user can do.
Almost all activities interact with the
user.
The Activity class takes care of
creating a window for you in which you
can place your UI with
setContentView(View). .

Intent

• Intents are asynchronous messages which allow application components to request

functionality from other Android components.

• Intents allow you to interact with components from the same applications as well as with

components contributed by other applications.

• For example, an activity can start an external activity for taking a picture.

Types of
Intents
• Implicit Intent

• Explicit Intent

06/23/2025 C.V.Nisha Angeline,APIT,TCE 12


Implicit Intent
• Implicit intents specify the action which should be performed and
optionally data which provides content for the action.
• If an implicit intent is sent to the Android system, it searches for all
components which are registered for the specific action and the
fitting data type.
• If only one component is found, Android starts this component
directly.
• If several components are identified by the Android system, the user
will get a selection dialog and can decide which component should
be used for the intent.

How to create
Implicit Intent

• Set a listener to the button


• Button.setOnClickListener

• Create an Intent Object


• intent= Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW)
• Set Data
• intent.setData(Uri.parse("http://www.google.com"))

• Start the Intent


• startActivity(intent)

06/23/2025 C.V.Nisha Angeline,APIT,TCE 16


Explicit Intent
• An application can define the target component directly in the intent
(explicit intent)
• Explicit intents are typically used within an application.
