一、监听ContentProvider主要步骤
1.在ContentProvider类的insert\update\delete方法加入this.getContext().getContentResolver().notifyChange(URI,null);
其中URI表示监听的URI
null表示发送消息给任何人;
2.在访问者的类中调用如下方法:
context.getContentResolver().registerContentObserver(uri,true,new ContentObserver(new Handler()));
3.创建内部类继承ContentObserver并重写下面两个方法:
(1)带有Handler的构造函数;
(2)public void onChange(boolean selfChange); 此函数在内容提供者发出改变信号时就会被调用
参数selfChange为如果是自己改变的原因,则为true;如果不是自己改变的,则为false;
二、实例
我们在Test1和Test2应用都对ContentProvider的数据改变进行注册,如果ContentProvider发出通知,则Test1和Test2都会收到通知;
注意:此处有一个很重要的问题,如果Test1和Test2应用的MainActivity为同一个包,则如果先运行Test2,再运行Test1,则Test2会停止运行,因为Test1应用会覆盖Test2的应用,即接收不到通知;
因此我们要把Test1应用和Test2应用的包名设为不同,此处为org.xiazdong和org.xzdong;
ContentProvider.java
package org.xiazdong.db; import android.content.ContentProvider; import android.content.ContentUris; import android.content.ContentValues; import android.content.UriMatcher; import android.database.Cursor; import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase; import android.net.Uri; public class PersonProvider extends ContentProvider{ private DatabaseHelper helper; private SQLiteDatabase db; private UriMatcher matcher = new UriMatcher(UriMatcher.NO_MATCH); @Override public boolean onCreate() { helper = new DatabaseHelper(this.getContext()); matcher.addURI("org.xiazdong.provides.personprovider", "person", 1); return true; } @Override public Cursor query(Uri uri, String[] projection, String selection, String[] selectionArgs, String sortOrder) { return null; } /* * 如果操作集合,则必须以vnd.android.cursor.dir开头 * 如果操作非集合,则必须以vnd.android.cursor.item开头 * */ @Override public String getType(Uri uri) { return ""; } @Override public Uri insert(Uri uri, ContentValues values) { db = helper.getWritableDatabase(); switch(matcher.match(uri)){ case 1: long rowid = db.insert("person", null, values); this.getContext().getContentResolver().notifyChange(uri, null);//如果改变数据,则通知所有人 return ContentUris.withAppendedId(uri, rowid); //返回插入的记录所代表的URI default: throw new IllegalArgumentException("wrong uri"); } } @Override public int delete(Uri uri, String selection, String[] selectionArgs) { return 0; } @Override public int update(Uri uri, ContentValues values, String selection, String[] selectionArgs) { return 0; } }
Test1应用
package org.xiazdong; import android.app.Activity; import android.content.ContentResolver; import android.content.ContentValues; import android.database.ContentObserver; import android.net.Uri; import android.os.Bundle; import android.os.Handler; import android.util.Log; import android.view.View; import android.view.View.OnClickListener; import android.widget.Button; public class MainActivity extends Activity { private Button button; private OnClickListener listener = new OnClickListener(){ @Override public void onClick(View v) { ContentResolver resolver = MainActivity.this.getContentResolver(); Uri uri = Uri.parse("content://org.xiazdong.provider2/person"); resolver.registerContentObserver(uri, true, new PersonObserver(new Handler())); ContentValues values = new ContentValues(); values.put("name", "zzz"); values.put("age", 1); resolver.insert(uri, values); //向ContentProvider插入数据 } }; @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); button = (Button)this.findViewById(R.id.button); button.setOnClickListener(listener); } private class PersonObserver extends ContentObserver{//监听 public PersonObserver(Handler handler) { super(handler); } //当ContentProvier数据发生改变,则触发该函数 @Override public void onChange(boolean selfChange) { super.onChange(selfChange); Log.i("Test1", "数据改变"); } } }
Test2应用
package org.xzdong; import android.app.Activity; import android.database.ContentObserver; import android.net.Uri; import android.os.Bundle; import android.os.Handler; import android.util.Log; public class MainActivity extends Activity { /** Called when the activity is first created. */ @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); Uri uri = Uri.parse("content://org.xiazdong.provider2/person"); this.getContentResolver().registerContentObserver(uri, true, new PersonObserver(new Handler())); } private class PersonObserver extends ContentObserver{ public PersonObserver(Handler handler) { super(handler); } //当ContentProvier数据发生改变,则触发该函数 @Override public void onChange(boolean selfChange) { super.onChange(selfChange); Log.v("Test2", "数据改变"); } } }
效果:
