Cursor

Closes the Cursor, releasing all of its resources and making it completely invalid. Unlike deactivate() a call to requery() will not make the Cursor valid again.

Retrieves the requested column text and stores it in the buffer provided. If the buffer size is not sufficient, a new char buffer will be allocated and assigned to CharArrayBuffer.data

Deactivates the Cursor, making all calls on it fail until requery() is called. Inactive Cursors use fewer resources than active Cursors. Calling requery() will make the cursor active again.

Returns the value of the requested column as a byte array.

If the native content of that column is not blob exception may throw

Return total number of columns

Returns the zero-based index for the given column name, or -1 if the column doesn't exist. If you expect the column to exist use getColumnIndexOrThrow(String) instead, which will make the error more clear.

Returns the zero-based index for the given column name, or throws IllegalArgumentException if the column doesn't exist. If you're not sure if a column will exist or not use getColumnIndex(String) and check for -1, which is more efficient than catching the exceptions.

Returns the column name at the given zero-based column index.

Returns a string array holding the names of all of the columns in the result set in the order in which they were listed in the result.

Returns the numbers of rows in the cursor.

Returns the value of the requested column as a double.

If the native content of that column is not numeric the result will be the result of passing the column value to Double.valueOf(x).

Returns a bundle of extra values. This is an optional way for cursors to provide out-of-band metadata to their users. One use of this is for reporting on the progress of network requests that are required to fetch data for the cursor.

These values may only change when requery is called.

Returns the value of the requested column as a float.

If the native content of that column is not numeric the result will be the result of passing the column value to Float.valueOf(x).

Returns the value of the requested column as an int.

If the native content of that column is not numeric the result will be the result of passing the column value to Integer.valueOf(x).

Returns the value of the requested column as a long.

If the native content of that column is not numeric the result will be the result of passing the column value to Long.valueOf(x).

Returns the current position of the cursor in the row set. The value is zero-based. When the row set is first returned the cursor will be at positon -1, which is before the first row. After the last row is returned another call to next() will leave the cursor past the last entry, at a position of count().

Returns the value of the requested column as a short.

If the native content of that column is not numeric the result will be the result of passing the column value to Short.valueOf(x).

Returns the value of the requested column as a String.

If the native content of that column is not text the result will be the result of passing the column value to String.valueOf(x).

onMove() will only be called across processes if this method returns true.

Returns whether the cursor is pointing to the position after the last row.

Returns whether the cursor is pointing to the position before the first row.

return true if the cursor is closed

Returns whether the cursor is pointing to the first row.

Returns whether the cursor is pointing to the last row.

Returns true if the value in the indicated column is null.

Move the cursor by a relative amount, forward or backward, from the current position. Positive offsets move forwards, negative offsets move backwards. If the final position is outside of the bounds of the result set then the resultant position will be pinned to -1 or count() depending on whether the value is off the front or end of the set, respectively.

This method will return true if the requested destination was reachable, otherwise, it returns false. For example, if the cursor is at currently on the second entry in the result set and move(-5) is called, the position will be pinned at -1, and false will be returned.

Move the cursor to the first row.

This method will return false if the cursor is empty.

Move the cursor to the last row.

This method will return false if the cursor is empty.

Move the cursor to the next row.

This method will return false if the cursor is already past the last entry in the result set.

Move the cursor to an absolute position. The valid range of values is -1 <= position <= count.

This method will return true if the request destination was reachable, otherwise, it returns false.

Move the cursor to the previous row.

This method will return false if the cursor is already before the first entry in the result set.

Register an observer that is called when changes happen to the content backing this cursor. Typically the data set won't change until requery() is called.

Register an observer that is called when changes happen to the contents of the this cursors data set, for example, when the data set is changed via requery(), deactivate(), or close().

Performs the query that created the cursor again, refreshing its contents. This may be done at any time, including after a call to deactivate().

This is an out-of-band way for the the user of a cursor to communicate with the cursor. The structure of each bundle is entirely defined by the cursor.

One use of this is to tell a cursor that it should retry its network request after it reported an error.

Register to watch a content URI for changes. This can be the URI of a specific data row (for example, "content://my_provider_type/23"), or a a generic URI for a content type.

Unregister an observer that has previously been registered with this cursor via registerContentObserver(ContentObserver).
