startActivity using android:name
<p>Manifest definition:</p>

<pre><code> &lt;activity android:name="com.gannett.democratandchronicle.billstrainingcamp.PlayersActivity" /&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>WORKS:</p>

<pre><code>startActivity(new Intent(this, PlayersActivity.class));
</code></pre>

<p>DOESN'T WORK: (No activity found)</p>

<pre><code>startActivity(new Intent("com.gannett.democratandchronicle.billstrainingcamp.PlayersActivity"));
</code></pre>

<p>Why can't I use the full android:name to startActivity? Is the string parameter expecting something different?</p>
