WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN IMPLICIT AND EXPLICIT INTENTS

IMPLICIT_INTENTS:


IMPLICIT INTENT IS THE INTENT ,,,

THAT ALLOWS US TO WORK WITH THE IMPLICIT ACTIONS OF THE DEVICE,,,

THESE ACTIONS ARE ALL STATIC METHODS SO YOU NEED TO CALL THESE
ACTIONS BY USING THE CLASS NAME...Intent...

EX:

Intent i =new Intent( Intent.ACTION_VIEW);

Intent i =new Intent( Intent.ACTION_CALL);

Intent i =new Intent( Intent.ACTION_DIAL);

Intent i =new Intent( Intent.ACTION_VIEW,Uri.parse("http://www.google.com");


HERE ACTION_VIEW,ACTION_CALL,ACTION_DIAL are all the implicit actions



EXPLICIT_INTENTS:


EXPLICIT INTENTS ARE THE INTENTS ,,,THAT ALLOWS THE USER TO JUMP FROM ONE ACTIVITY TO ANOTHER ACTIVITY,,,

EXLPLICIT INTENTS ARE USALLY DEFINED BY EXPLICITLY BY USERS ....

BY USING FOLLOWING SYNTAX:

Intent i = new Intent(ACTIVITY1.this , ACTIVITY2.class);

HERE ACTIVITY1............... MEANS...... CURRENT_ACTIVITY(WHERE YOU ARE NOW) .....

ACTIVITY2  .....MEANS YOU NEED TO SHIFT TO WHERE(WHERE YOU WANT TO JUMP),,,,,
