Open file with default application using Intents

Dear all

 Welcome to my blog android rocks, in this post we will see how to open different different  files with default application  using intents.

Below the code snippets 

1. Opening Mp4 Files (Video)

Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
File file = new File("/sdcard/test.mp4");
intent.setDataAndType(Uri.fromFile(file), "video/*");
startActivity(intent); 

2. Opening Mp3 Files (Audio)

Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
File file = new File("/sdcard/test.mp3");
intent.setDataAndType(Uri.fromFile(file), "audio/*");
startActivity(intent);  

3. Opening HTML Files

Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
File file = new File("/sdcard/readme.html");
intent.setDataAndType(Uri.fromFile(file), "text/html");

intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
startActivity(intent);   

4. Opening PDF Files 

Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
File file = new File("/sdcard/readme.html");
intent.setDataAndType(Uri.fromFile(file), "application/pdf"); 

intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
startActivity(intent);    

Thanks......
