Android explicit intent with target component

Question

Is it possible to fire explicit intent but not for an activity from my project but for activity in some other application.

I am sure of this code and I know it is ru

Answer 1

I'd suggest to concatenate the package & class name with a dot;

this speeds up copy & paste, eg. while writing jUnit tests.

String packageName = getApplicationContext().getPackageName();
String className = "SomeActivity";

Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setComponent(new ComponentName(packageName, packageName + "." + className));
startActivity(intent);
