ContentQueryMap
extends Observable
java.lang.Object | ||
↳ | java.util.Observable | |
↳ | android.content.ContentQueryMap |
Caches the contents of a cursor into a Map of String->ContentValues and optionally keeps the cache fresh by registering for updates on the content backing the cursor. The column of the database that is to be used as the key of the map is user-configurable, and the ContentValues contains all columns other than the one that is designated the key.
The cursor data is accessed by row key and column name via getValue().

ContentQueryMap (Cursor cursor, String columnNameOfKey, boolean keepUpdated, Handler handlerForUpdateNotifications)
Creates a ContentQueryMap that caches the content backing the cursor
Parameters | |
---|---|
cursor |
Cursor :
the cursor whose contents should be cached |
columnNameOfKey |
String :
the column that is to be used as the key of the values map |
keepUpdated |
boolean :
true if the cursor's ContentProvider should be monitored for changes and
the map updated when changes do occur |
handlerForUpdateNotifications |
Handler :
the Handler that should be used to receive
notifications of changes (if requested). Normally you pass null here, but if
you know that the thread that is creating this isn't a thread that can receive
messages then you can create your own handler and use that here.

Map<String, ContentValues> getRows ()
Returns | |
---|---|
Map<String, ContentValues> |
ContentValues getValues (String rowName)
Access the ContentValues for the row specified by rowName
Parameters | |
---|---|
rowName |
String :
which row to read |
Returns | |
---|---|
ContentValues |
the ContentValues for the row, or null if the row wasn't present in the cursor |
void requery ()
Requeries the cursor and reads the contents into the cache
void setKeepUpdated (boolean keepUpdated)
Change whether or not the ContentQueryMap will register with the cursor's ContentProvider for change notifications. If you use a ContentQueryMap in an activity you should call this with false in onPause(), which means you need to call it with true in onResume() if want it to be kept updated.
Parameters | |
---|---|
keepUpdated |
boolean :
if true the ContentQueryMap should be registered with the cursor's
ContentProvider, false otherwise

void finalize ()
Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection
determines that there are no more references to the object.
A subclass overrides the finalize
method to dispose of
system resources or to perform other cleanup.
The general contract of finalize
is that it is invoked
if and when the JavaTM virtual
machine has determined that there is no longer any
means by which this object can be accessed by any thread that has
not yet died, except as a result of an action taken by the
finalization of some other object or class which is ready to be
finalized. The finalize
method may take any action, including
making this object available again to other threads; the usual purpose
of finalize
, however, is to perform cleanup actions before
the object is irrevocably discarded. For example, the finalize method
for an object that represents an input/output connection might perform
explicit I/O transactions to break the connection before the object is
permanently discarded.
The finalize
method of class Object
performs no
special action; it simply returns normally. Subclasses of
Object
may override this definition.
The Java programming language does not guarantee which thread will
invoke the finalize
method for any given object. It is
guaranteed, however, that the thread that invokes finalize will not
be holding any user-visible synchronization locks when finalize is
invoked. If an uncaught exception is thrown by the finalize method,
the exception is ignored and finalization of that object terminates.
After the finalize
method has been invoked for an object, no
further action is taken until the Java virtual machine has again
determined that there is no longer any means by which this object can
be accessed by any thread that has not yet died, including possible
actions by other objects or classes which are ready to be finalized,
at which point the object may be discarded.
The finalize
method is never invoked more than once by a Java
virtual machine for any given object.
Any exception thrown by the finalize
method causes
the finalization of this object to be halted, but is otherwise
ignored.
