Android Question Launch a specific browser (not the default) targeting a specific link (URL)

[William Hunter]

I would like to know how to launch a specific browser (not the default) targeting a specific link (URL). I have seen the two examples below, but both will launch the default browser. I am looking for code snippets that would let me launch both Chrome and Firefox in the way I have described.

Private i As Intent
i.Initialize(i.ACTION_VIEW,"https://www.example.com")
StartActivity(i)

Dim p As PhoneIntents
StartActivity(p.OpenBrowser("https://www.example.com")

Erel's code sample below seems to offer a solution, but I don't know how to complete the required entries. Can anyone help me with this? Any help greatly appreciated.

Dim in As Intent = p.OpenBrowser(...)
in.SetComponent(...)
StartActivity(in)

Best regards

Use PackageManager.QueryIntentActivities to see the intents required to start all the installed browsers.

Note that it is possible that a different intent will be required based on the browser version.
