Querying a Content Provider

You need three pieces of information to query a content provider:

• The URI that identifies the provider
• The names of the data fields you want to receive
• The data types for those fields

If you‘re querying a particular record, you also need the ID for that record.

Making the query

To query a content provider, you can use either the ContentResolver.query() method or the Activity.managedQuery() method. Both methods take the same set of arguments, and both return a Cursor object. However, managedQuery() causes the activity to manage the life cycle of the Cursor(使用managedQuery()这个方法，会促使Cursor的生命周期受制于Activity). A managed Cursor handles all of the niceties, such as unloading itself when the activity pauses, and requerying itself when the activity restarts. You can ask an Activity to begin managing an unmanaged Cursor object for you by calling Activity.startManagingCursor().

The first argument to either query() or managedQuery() is the provider URI — the CONTENT_URI constant that identifies a particular ContentProvider and data set (see URIsearlier).

To restrict a query to just one record, you can append the _ID value for that record to the URI — that is, place a string matching the ID as the last segment of the path part of the URI. For example, if the ID is 23, the URI would be:

content://. . . ./23

There are some helper methods, particularly ContentUris.withAppendedId() and Uri.withAppendedPath(), that make it easy to append an ID to a URI. Both are static methods that return a Uri object with the ID added. So, for example, if you were looking for record 23 in the database of people contacts, you might construct a query as follows:

import android.provider.Contacts.People;
import android.content.ContentUris;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.database.Cursor;

// Use the ContentUris method to produce the base URI for the contact with _ID == 23.
Uri myPerson = ContentUris.withAppendedId(People.CONTENT_URI, 23);

// Alternatively, use the Uri method to produce the base URI.
// It takes a string rather than an integer.
Uri myPerson = Uri.withAppendedPath(People.CONTENT_URI, "23");

// Then query for this specific record:
Cursor cur = managedQuery(myPerson, null, null, null, null);
