SimpleCursorAdapter

public class SimpleCursorAdapter
extends ResourceCursorAdapter

java.lang.Object
↳	android.widget.BaseAdapter
	↳	android.widget.CursorAdapter
		↳	android.widget.ResourceCursorAdapter
			↳	android.widget.SimpleCursorAdapter

An easy adapter to map columns from a cursor to TextViews or ImageViews defined in an XML file. You can specify which columns you want, which views you want to display the columns, and the XML file that defines the appearance of these views. Binding occurs in two phases. First, if a SimpleCursorAdapter.ViewBinder is available, setViewValue(android.view.View, android.database.Cursor, int) is invoked. If the returned value is true, binding has occured. If the returned value is false and the view to bind is a TextView, setViewText(TextView, String) is invoked. If the returned value is false and the view to bind is an ImageView, setViewImage(ImageView, String) is invoked. If no appropriate binding can be found, an IllegalStateException is thrown. If this adapter is used with filtering, for instance in an AutoCompleteTextView, you can use the SimpleCursorAdapter.CursorToStringConverter and the FilterQueryProvider interfaces to get control over the filtering process. You can refer to convertToString(android.database.Cursor) and runQueryOnBackgroundThread(CharSequence) for more information.

Public constructors
`SimpleCursorAdapter(Context context, int layout, Cursor c, String[] from, int[] to)` 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`.

Public methods

bindView

Added in API level 1

void bindView (View view, 
                Context context, 
                Cursor cursor)

Binds all of the field names passed into the "to" parameter of the constructor with their corresponding cursor columns as specified in the "from" parameter. Binding occurs in two phases. First, if a SimpleCursorAdapter.ViewBinder is available, setViewValue(android.view.View, android.database.Cursor, int) is invoked. If the returned value is true, binding has occured. If the returned value is false and the view to bind is a TextView, setViewText(TextView, String) is invoked. If the returned value is false and the view to bind is an ImageView, setViewImage(ImageView, String) is invoked. If no appropriate binding can be found, an IllegalStateException is thrown.

Parameters
`view`	`View`: Existing view, returned earlier by newView
`context`	`Context`: Interface to application's global information
`cursor`	`Cursor`: The cursor from which to get the data. The cursor is already moved to the correct position.

Throws
`IllegalStateException`	if binding cannot occur

void changeCursorAndColumns (Cursor c, 
                String[] from, 
                int[] to)

Change the cursor and change the column-to-view mappings at the same time.

Parameters

convertToString

Added in API level 1

CharSequence convertToString (Cursor cursor)

Returns a CharSequence representation of the specified Cursor as defined by the current CursorToStringConverter. If no CursorToStringConverter has been set, the String conversion column is used instead. If the conversion column is -1, the returned String is empty if the cursor is null or Cursor.toString().

Parameters
`cursor`	`Cursor`: the Cursor to convert to a CharSequence

Returns
`CharSequence`	a non-null CharSequence representing the cursor

getCursorToStringConverter

Added in API level 1

SimpleCursorAdapter.CursorToStringConverter getCursorToStringConverter ()

Returns the converter used to convert the filtering Cursor into a String.

Returns
`SimpleCursorAdapter.CursorToStringConverter`	null if the converter does not exist or an instance of `SimpleCursorAdapter.CursorToStringConverter`

See also:

getStringConversionColumn

Added in API level 1

int getStringConversionColumn ()

Return the index of the column used to get a String representation of the Cursor.

Returns
`int`	a valid index in the current Cursor or -1

SimpleCursorAdapter.ViewBinder getViewBinder ()

Returns the SimpleCursorAdapter.ViewBinder used to bind data to views.

Returns
`SimpleCursorAdapter.ViewBinder`	a ViewBinder or null if the binder does not exist

See also:

setCursorToStringConverter

Added in API level 1

void setCursorToStringConverter (SimpleCursorAdapter.CursorToStringConverter cursorToStringConverter)

Sets the converter used to convert the filtering Cursor into a String.

Parameters
`cursorToStringConverter`	`SimpleCursorAdapter.CursorToStringConverter`: the Cursor to String converter, or null to remove the converter

See also:

setStringConversionColumn

void setStringConversionColumn (int stringConversionColumn)

Defines the index of the column in the Cursor used to get a String representation of that Cursor. The column is used to convert the Cursor to a String only when the current CursorToStringConverter is null.

Parameters
`stringConversionColumn`	`int`: a valid index in the current Cursor or -1 to use the default conversion mechanism

See also:

setViewBinder

Added in API level 1

void setViewBinder (SimpleCursorAdapter.ViewBinder viewBinder)

Parameters
`viewBinder`	`SimpleCursorAdapter.ViewBinder`: the binder used to bind data to views, can be null to remove the existing binder

See also:

setViewImage

Added in API level 1

void setViewImage (ImageView v, 
                String value)

Called by bindView() to set the image for an ImageView but only if there is no existing ViewBinder or if the existing ViewBinder cannot handle binding to an ImageView. By default, the value will be treated as an image resource. If the value cannot be used as an image resource, the value is used as an image Uri. Intended to be overridden by Adapters that need to filter strings retrieved from the database.

Parameters
`v`	`ImageView`: ImageView to receive an image
`value`	`String`: the value retrieved from the cursor

setViewText

void setViewText (TextView v, 
                String text)

Called by bindView() to set the text for a TextView but only if there is no existing ViewBinder or if the existing ViewBinder cannot handle binding to a TextView. Intended to be overridden by Adapters that need to filter strings retrieved from the database.

Parameters
`v`	`TextView`: TextView to receive text
`text`	`String`: the text to be set for the TextView

swapCursor

Added in API level 11

Cursor swapCursor (Cursor c)

Swap in a new Cursor, returning the old Cursor. Unlike changeCursor(Cursor), the returned old Cursor is not closed.

Parameters
`c`	`Cursor`: The new cursor to be used.

Returns
`Cursor`	Returns the previously set Cursor, or null if there wasa not one. If the given new Cursor is the same instance is the previously set Cursor, null is also returned.
