[android-developers] Re: intent-filter for addContact and editContact ?
hello everyboday
thank you for your support and sorry for my slowly answer...
it works with a contentResolver and a ContentObserver (code).
do you mean that it isn't for the performance of the device not a good
idea to work with something like that?
thanks in advance
public class BackgroundService extends Service {
private Handler handler = new Handler();
@Override
public IBinder onBind(Intent arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return null;
}
public void onStart(Intent intent, int startId) {
super.onStart(intent, startId);
System.out.println(BACKGROUND SERVICE IS RUNNING);
ContactsContentObserver cco = new
ContactsContentObserver(handler);
ContentResolver contentResolver = getContentResolver();
contentResolver.registerContentObserver(Contacts.People.CONTENT_URI,
true, cco);
}
private class ContactsContentObserver extends ContentObserver {
public ContactsContentObserver(Handler h) {
super(h);
}
public void onChange(boolean selfChange) {
System.out.println(SOMEBODAY CHANGED ANYTHING AT THE
CONTACTS);
}
}
}

should do what you want. I haven't used the function yet, so you may
have to mess with it. Please report back you results so others can

I was just explaining why we designed things the way we did.
