This member is deprecated. This function no longer does anything. It is the platform's responsibility to assign preferred activities and this cannot be modified directly. To determine the activities resolved by the platform, use #resolveActivity or #queryIntentActivities. To configure an app to be responsible for a particular role and to check current role holders, see android.app.role.RoleManager.
