The following source code shows how to declare that an Android activity is the launcher activity for your application:
<activity android:name=".MyMainActivity" > <intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" /> </intent-filter> </activity> <activity android:name=".SomeOtherActivity" android:label="@string/app_name" > </activity>
This code should be placed in your AndroidManifest.xml file, and it declares that a Java class named MyMainActivity
is the launcher activity for your Android application. (I assume that you already know about that file and just needed to see this syntax, so I won’t explain any more about this here.)
