Is it possible to launch a specific Android app (e.g. a simple helloworld app), through a new plugin (Developed with Eclipse Standard Ver: Luna Release (4.4.0)) deployed under Eclipse ADT?

Trying with the following code in the plugin:

Intent LaunchIntent = getPackageManager().getLaunchIntentForPackage("com.package.address");

startActivity(LaunchIntent);

There is the following error in an Information Dialog:

The chosen operation is not currently available.

What is the correct procedure?

Are you writing the correct package name instead of `com.package.address` ? – An SO User Aug 28 '14 at 18:42
I use "com.example.testhello", that is the package of android app example used in ADT workspace. – Nicola Rossi Aug 28 '14 at 18:49
I also followed the next post ... but the error is always the same http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2780102/open-another-application-from-your-own-intent – Nicola Rossi Aug 28 '14 at 18:55
