Types of Android Intents

 there are two type of the intent

Implicit Intent-  Implicit Intent doesn't specifiy the component. In such case, intent provides information of available components provided by the system that is to be invoked.

1. Intent intent=new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);  
2. intent.setData(Uri.parse("http://www.facebook.com"));  
3. startActivity(intent);

Explicit Intent

 Explicit Intent specifies the component. In such case, intent provides the external class to be invoked.

1.    Intent i = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), ActivityOne.class);  
2.    startActivity(i);
