Android Linkify from HTML in TextView

Question

I have HTML with standard links which correspond to commands I'd like to handle.

This is <a href="CMD:nice">a command</a>.

I populate a TextView with Html.fromHtml()

How can I use the Android Linkify system to convert the links to Linkify'ed ones?

Answer 1

found that the WikiNotes example project from Google does exactly that. It uses the Linkify infrastructure with a Provider and MIMIE type to load the right Activity.
