## Public methods

### setViewValue

added in[version 22.1.0](https://developer.android.com/topic/libraries/support-library/revisions)  

```
boolean setViewValue (View view, 
                Cursor cursor, 
                int columnIndex)
```

Binds the Cursor column defined by the specified index to the specified view. When binding is handled by this ViewBinder, this method must return true. If this method returns false, SimpleCursorAdapter will attempts to handle the binding on its own.
