Sometimes you want to start an Activity by pressing a Button.

Is there a way to express that in XML? I.e. to tag the Button xml with the Activity to render when it is clicked? That would certainly be a lot quicker and slicker and shorter than writing the equivalent Java code to handle the event.

    In xml you can only set name of method that will be started on click event (same as setOncClickListener ) using http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/View.html#attr_android:onClick

    But it’s not possible to define exactly what will be done after button click.
