How to open GPS settings an android device? [closed]

Question

I am making GPS android app (with air for android) and what I want is if GPS is off I want to open GPS settings on device or switch GPS on but I don't know how. I want to do it in AS3 or open android settings in Java. Thanks for help!

You can simply start an activity with this action:

startActivity(new Intent(Settings.ACTION_LOCATION_SOURCE_SETTINGS)); 

I use it inside a dialog:

public static void displayPromptForEnablingGPS(final Activity activity)     {          final AlertDialog.Builder builder =  new AlertDialog.Builder(activity);         final String action = Settings.ACTION_LOCATION_SOURCE_SETTINGS;         final String message = "Do you want open GPS setting?";          builder.setMessage(message)             .setPositiveButton("OK",                 new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {                     public void onClick(DialogInterface d, int id) {                         activity.startActivity(new Intent(action));                         d.dismiss();                     }             })             .setNegativeButton("Cancel",                 new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {                     public void onClick(DialogInterface d, int id) {                         d.cancel();                     }             });         builder.create().show();     }
