How to make a phone call using intent in Android?


I'm using the following code to make a call in Android but it is giving me security exception please help.

 posted_by = "111-333-222-4";

 String uri = "tel:" + posted_by.trim() ;
 Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL);
 intent.setData(Uri.parse(uri));
 startActivity(intent);

permissions

 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE" />

Exception

    i just placed call permissions tag before application tag in manifest file

    and now every thing is working fine.
