Function

Gio-2.0Gioapp_info_launch_default_for_uri

  • 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 Gio.AppInfo.launch_default_for_uri_async instead.

    Parameters

    Returns boolean

    TRUE on success, FALSE on error.
