From e558ff82d3f37169fad4abd52200dc75651a3ab5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "asargent@chromium.org" Date: Thu, 23 Sep 2010 20:19:56 +0000 Subject: Add a launchApp method to extension management API. This makes it possible for new tab replacement extensions to recreate the same app launch experience as the built-in NTP (pinned tabs, launch containers, etc.) Also add the extension version to data we report about extensions via the management API. BUG=56325,55474 TEST=An extension using chrome.experimental.management.launchApp() should work to launch an app the same way that app gets launched from the built-in new tab page.
