Abstract
A method and system for launching a target application. A predefined data type is identified by: determining that a first row of a parser table including a first regular expression formulating a string of characters includes rows ordered from a more general to a more specific regular expression; setting a first regular expression as a regular expression matching the string; resetting the regular expression with a second regular expression, of a next row of the parser table, that formulates the string more specifically than the first regular expression; and selecting the predefined data type in the row of the regular expression as the predefined data type of the string, upon performing the resetting for all rows of the parser table. The target application previously associated with a combination of the identified data type and a source application containing the string is identified and launched with the string as a parameter.
