launch_default_for_uri


Description:

public static bool launch_default_for_uri (string uri, AppLaunchContext? context) throws Error

Utility function that launches the default application registered to handle the specified uri.

Synchronous I/O is done on the uri to detect the type of the file if required.

The D-Bus–activated applications don’t have to be started if your application terminates too soon after this function. To prevent this, use [func@Gio.AppInfo.launch_default_for_uri_async] instead.

Parameters:

uri

the uri to show

context

optional launch context

Returns:

`TRUE` on success, `FALSE` on error.
