You pass it the type and label fields from the contacts content provider and it reads the localized labels for the non-custom types and returns the proper value. If the type is custom it will return the label value you pass in. The last parameter allows you to pass in your own array of strings to describe the built-in type values, but if you pass null it will use the default system values that will be localized properly.
