<p>A sample application that demonstrates Android's search framework.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>This application includes a dictionary of words. By invoking the Android search dialog inside the
|
|
app (via the device search button or Menu > Search), you can perform a search
|
|
across the dictionary. As you type, suggestions will appear, which you can select
|
|
to view the complete definition. You can also execute the search to view all word definitions
|
|
that match the entered text.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The application also grants content provider privileges to
|
|
Quick Search Box, Android's system-wide search tool. This means that the
|
|
dictionary definitions can be offered as search suggestions outside of the application,
|
|
when text is entered into Quick Search Box.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The code in this application demonstrates how to:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Implement a search interface using Android's search framework</li>
|
|
<li>Provide custom search suggestions and offer them in Quick Search Box</li>
|
|
<li>Create an FTS3 table in SQLite and perform full-text search</li>
|
|
<li>Create a content provider to perform all searches and queries to the dictionary</li>
|
|
<li>Use <a
|
|
href="../../../reference/android/widget/SimpleCursorAdapter.html">SimpleCursorAdapter</a> to bind
|
|
data from a Cursor to a ListView.</li>
|
|
</ul>
