Public constructors
Public methods
close
open fun close(): Unit
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.
| Exceptions | |
|---|---|
java.lang.Exception |
if this resource cannot be closed |
java.io.IOException |
if an I/O error occurs |
copyStringToBuffer
open fun copyStringToBuffer(
columnIndex: Int,
buffer: CharArrayBuffer!
): Unit
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
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
columnIndex |
Int: the zero-based index of the target column. if the target column is null, return buffer. Value is 0 or greater |
buffer |
CharArrayBuffer!: the buffer to copy the text into. |
deactivate
open fun deactivate(): Unit
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.
fillWindow
open fun fillWindow(
position: Int,
window: CursorWindow!
): Unit
Copies cursor data into the window.
Clears the window and fills it with data beginning at the requested row position until all of the data in the cursor is exhausted or the window runs out of space.
The filled window uses the same row indices as the original cursor. For example, if you fill a window starting from row 5 from the cursor, you can query the contents of row 5 from the window just by asking it for row 5 because there is a direct correspondence between the row indices used by the cursor and the window.
The current position of the cursor, as returned by getPosition, is not changed by this method.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
position |
Int: The zero-based index of the first row to copy into the window. |
window |
CursorWindow!: The window to fill. |
getBlob
open fun getBlob(column: Int): ByteArray!
Returns the value of the requested column as a byte array.
The result and whether this method throws an exception when the column value is null or the column type is not a blob type is implementation-defined.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
columnIndex |
the zero-based index of the target column. Value is 0 or greater |
| Return | |
|---|---|
ByteArray! |
the value of that column as a byte array. |
getColumnCount
open fun getColumnCount(): Int
Return total number of columns
| Return | |
|---|---|
Int |
number of columns. Value is 0 or greater |
getColumnIndex
open fun getColumnIndex(columnName: String!): Int
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(java.lang.String) instead, which will make the error more clear.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
columnName |
String!: the name of the target column. |
| Return | |
|---|---|
Int |
the zero-based column index for the given column name, or -1 if the column name does not exist. Value is -1 or greater |
getColumnIndexOrThrow
open fun getColumnIndexOrThrow(columnName: String!): Int
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(java.lang.String) and check for -1, which is more efficient than catching the exceptions.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
columnName |
String!: the name of the target column. |
| Return | |
|---|---|
Int |
the zero-based column index for the given column name. Value is 0 or greater |

|---|---|
Boolean |
whether the move succeeded. |
onMove
open fun onMove(
oldPosition: Int,
newPosition: Int
): Boolean
This function is called every time the cursor is successfully scrolled to a new position, giving the subclass a chance to update any state it may have. If it returns false the move function will also do so and the cursor will scroll to the beforeFirst position.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
oldPosition |
Int: the position that we're moving from |
newPosition |
Int: the position that we're moving to |
| Return | |
|---|---|
Boolean |
true if the move is successful, false otherwise |
registerContentObserver
open fun registerContentObserver(observer: ContentObserver!): Unit
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.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
observer |
ContentObserver!: the object that gets notified when the content backing the cursor changes. |
registerDataSetObserver
open fun registerDataSetObserver(observer: DataSetObserver!): Unit
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().
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
observer |
DataSetObserver!: the object that gets notified when the cursors data set changes. |
requery
open fun requery(): Boolean
Performs the query that created the cursor again, refreshing its contents. This may be done at any time, including after a call to deactivate. Since this method could execute a query on the database and potentially take a while, it could cause ANR if it is called on Main (UI) thread. A warning is printed if this method is being executed on Main thread.
| Return | |
|---|---|
Boolean |
true if the requery succeeded, false if not, in which case the cursor becomes invalid. |
respond
open fun respond(extras: Bundle!): Bundle!
This is an out-of-band way for 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.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
extras |
Bundle!: extra values, or Bundle.EMPTY. Never null. |
| Return | |
|---|---|
Bundle! |
extra values, or Bundle.EMPTY. Never null. |
setExtras
open fun setExtras(extras: Bundle!): Unit
Sets a Bundle that will be returned by getExtras().
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
extras |
Bundle!: Bundle to set, or null to set an empty bundle. |
setNotificationUri
open fun setNotificationUri(
cr: ContentResolver!,
notifyUri: Uri!
): Unit
Specifies a content URI to watch for changes.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
cr |
ContentResolver!: The content resolver from the caller's context. |
uri |
The content URI to watch. |
notifyUri |
Uri!: The URI to watch for changes. This can be a specific row URI, or a base URI for a whole class of content. |
setNotificationUris
open fun setNotificationUris(
cr: ContentResolver,
notifyUris: MutableList<Uri!>
): Unit
Similar to setNotificationUri(android.content.ContentResolver,android.net.Uri), except this version allows to watch multiple content URIs for changes.
If this is not implemented, this is equivalent to calling setNotificationUri(android.content.ContentResolver,android.net.Uri) with the first URI in uris.
Calling this overrides any previous call to setNotificationUri(android.content.ContentResolver,android.net.Uri).
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
cr |
ContentResolver: This value cannot be null. |
uris |
The content URIs to watch. This value cannot be null. |
notifyUris |
MutableList<Uri!>: This value cannot be null. |
unregisterContentObserver
open fun unregisterContentObserver(observer: ContentObserver!): Unit
Unregister an observer that has previously been registered with this cursor via registerContentObserver.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
observer |
ContentObserver!: the object to unregister. |
unregisterDataSetObserver
open fun unregisterDataSetObserver(observer: DataSetObserver!): Unit
Unregister an observer that has previously been registered with this cursor via registerContentObserver.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
observer |
DataSetObserver!: the object to unregister. |
Protected methods
checkPosition
protected open fun checkPosition(): Unit
This function throws CursorIndexOutOfBoundsException if the cursor position is out of bounds. Subclass implementations of the get functions should call this before attempting to retrieve data.
| Exceptions | |
|---|---|
android.database.CursorIndexOutOfBoundsException |
|
finalize
protected open fun finalize(): Unit
Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object. A subclass overrides the finalize method to dispose of system resources or to perform other cleanup.
The general contract of finalize is that it is invoked if and when the Java virtual machine has determined that there is no longer any means by which this object can be accessed by any thread that has not yet died, except as a result of an action taken by the finalization of some other object or class which is ready to be finalized. The finalize method may take any action, including making this object available again to other threads; the usual purpose of finalize, however, is to perform cleanup actions before the object is irrevocably discarded. For example, the finalize method for an object that represents an input/output connection might perform explicit I/O transactions to break the connection before the object is permanently discarded.
The finalize method of class Object performs no special action; it simply returns normally. Subclasses of Object may override this definition.
The Java programming language does not guarantee which thread will invoke the finalize method for any given object. It is guaranteed, however, that the thread that invokes finalize will not be holding any user-visible synchronization locks when finalize is invoked. If an uncaught exception is thrown by the finalize method, the exception is ignored and finalization of that object terminates.
After the finalize method has been invoked for an object, no further action is taken until the Java virtual machine has again determined that there is no longer any means by which this object can be accessed by any thread that has not yet died, including possible actions by other objects or classes which are ready to be finalized, at which point the object may be discarded.
The finalize method is never invoked more than once by a Java virtual machine for any given object.
Any exception thrown by the finalize method causes the finalization of this object to be halted, but is otherwise ignored.
| Exceptions | |
|---|---|
java.lang.Throwable |
the Exception raised by this method |
