Constants

public static final String CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE

Added in API level 5

MIME type used when storing this in data table.

Constant Value: "vnd.android.cursor.item/im"

public static final String CUSTOM_PROTOCOL

Added in API level 5

Constant Value: "data6"

public static final String EXTRA_ADDRESS_BOOK_INDEX

Added in API level 21

Add this query parameter to a URI to get back row counts grouped by the address book index as cursor extras. For most languages it is the first letter of the sort key. This parameter does not affect the main content of the cursor.

 Example:

 import android.provider.ContactsContract.Contacts;

 Uri uri = Contacts.CONTENT_URI.buildUpon()
          .appendQueryParameter(Contacts.EXTRA_ADDRESS_BOOK_INDEX, "true")
          .build();
 Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(uri,
          new String[] {Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME},
          null, null, null);
 Bundle bundle = cursor.getExtras();
 if (bundle.containsKey(Contacts.EXTRA_ADDRESS_BOOK_INDEX_TITLES) &&
         bundle.containsKey(Contacts.EXTRA_ADDRESS_BOOK_INDEX_COUNTS)) {
     String sections[] =
             bundle.getStringArray(Contacts.EXTRA_ADDRESS_BOOK_INDEX_TITLES);
     int counts[] = bundle.getIntArray(Contacts.EXTRA_ADDRESS_BOOK_INDEX_COUNTS);
 }
 

Constant Value: "android.provider.extra.ADDRESS_BOOK_INDEX"
