Known Direct Subclasses

ResourceCursorAdapter

Known Indirect Subclasses

SimpleCursorAdapter

Adapter that exposes data from a Cursor to a ListView widget.

The Cursor must include a column named "_id" or this class will not work. Additionally, using MergeCursor with this class will not work if the merged Cursors have overlapping values in their "_id" columns.

Summary

Constants
`int`	`FLAG_AUTO_REQUERY` This constant was deprecated in API level 11. This option is discouraged, as it results in Cursor queries being performed on the application's UI thread and thus can cause poor responsiveness or even Application Not Responding errors. As an alternative, use `LoaderManager` with a `CursorLoader`.
`int`	`FLAG_REGISTER_CONTENT_OBSERVER` If set the adapter will register a content observer on the cursor and will call `onContentChanged()` when a notification comes in.

Constants

FLAG_AUTO_REQUERY

Added in API level 11

int FLAG_AUTO_REQUERY

This constant was deprecated in API level 11.
This option is discouraged, as it results in Cursor queries being performed on the application's UI thread and thus can cause poor responsiveness or even Application Not Responding errors. As an alternative, use LoaderManager with a CursorLoader.

If set the adapter will call requery() on the cursor whenever a content change notification is delivered. Implies FLAG_REGISTER_CONTENT_OBSERVER.

Constant Value: 1 (0x00000001)

FLAG_REGISTER_CONTENT_OBSERVER

Added in API level 11

int FLAG_REGISTER_CONTENT_OBSERVER

If set the adapter will register a content observer on the cursor and will call onContentChanged() when a notification comes in. Be careful when using this flag: you will need to unset the current Cursor from the adapter to avoid leaks due to its registered observers. This flag is not needed when using a CursorAdapter with a CursorLoader.

Constant Value: 2 (0x00000002)

Public constructors

CursorAdapter

Added in API level 1

CursorAdapter (Context context, 
                Cursor c)

This constructor was deprecated in API level 11.
This option is discouraged, as it results in Cursor queries being performed on the application's UI thread and thus can cause poor responsiveness or even Application Not Responding errors. As an alternative, use LoaderManager with a CursorLoader.

Constructor that always enables auto-requery.

Parameters
`context`	`Context`: The context

Constructor that allows control over auto-requery. It is recommended you not use this, but instead CursorAdapter(Context, Cursor, int). When using this constructor, FLAG_REGISTER_CONTENT_OBSERVER will always be set.

Parameters
`context`	`Context`: The context
`c`	`Cursor`: The cursor from which to get the data.
`autoRequery`	`boolean`: If true the adapter will call requery() on the cursor whenever it changes so the most recent data is always displayed. Using true here is discouraged.

Gets a View that displays in the drop down popup the data at the specified position in the data set.

Parameters
`position`	`int`: index of the item whose view we want.
`convertView`	`View`: the old view to reuse, if possible. Note: You should check that this view is non-null and of an appropriate type before using. If it is not possible to convert this view to display the correct data, this method can create a new view.

getFilter

Added in API level 1

Filter getFilter ()

Returns a filter that can be used to constrain data with a filtering pattern.

This method is usually implemented by Adapter classes.

Returns
`Filter`	a filter used to constrain data

getFilterQueryProvider

Added in API level 1

FilterQueryProvider getFilterQueryProvider ()

Returns the query filter provider used for filtering. When the provider is null, no filtering occurs.

Returns
`FilterQueryProvider`	the current filter query provider or null if it does not exist

See also:

getItem

Added in API level 1

Object getItem (int position)

Get the data item associated with the specified position in the data set.

Parameters
`position`	`int`: Position of the item whose data we want within the adapter's data set.

Returns
`Object`	The data at the specified position.

See also:

getItem(int)

getItemId

Added in API level 1

getView

Added in API level 1

View getView (int position, 
                View convertView, 
                ViewGroup parent)

Get a View that displays the data at the specified position in the data set. You can either create a View manually or inflate it from an XML layout file. When the View is inflated, the parent View (GridView, ListView...) will apply default layout parameters unless you use inflate(int, android.view.ViewGroup, boolean) to specify a root view and to prevent attachment to the root.

Parameters
`position`	`int`: The position of the item within the adapter's data set of the item whose view we want.
`convertView`	`View`: The old view to reuse, if possible. Note: You should check that this view is non-null and of an appropriate type before using. If it is not possible to convert this view to display the correct data, this method can create a new view. Heterogeneous lists can specify their number of view types, so that this View is always of the right type (see `getViewTypeCount()` and `getItemViewType(int)`).
`parent`	`ViewGroup`: The parent that this view will eventually be attached to

Returns
`View`	A View corresponding to the data at the specified position.

Returns
`View`	the newly created view.

runQueryOnBackgroundThread

Added in API level 1

Cursor runQueryOnBackgroundThread (CharSequence constraint)

Runs a query with the specified constraint. This query is requested by the filter attached to this adapter. The query is provided by a FilterQueryProvider. If no provider is specified, the current cursor is not filtered and returned. After this method returns the resulting cursor is passed to changeCursor(Cursor) and the previous cursor is closed. This method is always executed on a background thread, not on the application's main thread (or UI thread.) Contract: when constraint is null or empty, the original results, prior to any filtering, must be returned.

Parameters

See also:

newDropDownView(Context, Cursor, ViewGroup)

setFilterQueryProvider

Added in API level 1

void setFilterQueryProvider (FilterQueryProvider filterQueryProvider)
