android点滴(17)之Loader

Introduced in Android 3.0, loaders make it easy to asynchronously load data in an activity or fragment. Loaders have these characteristics:

• They are available to every Activity and Fragment.
• They provide asynchronous loading of data.
• They monitor the source of their data and deliver new results when the content changes.
• They automatically reconnect to the last loader's cursor when being recreated after a configuration change. Thus, they don't need to re-query their data

Loader API Summary

There are multiple classes and interfaces that may be involved in using loaders in an application. They are summarized in this table:

Class/Interface	Description
LoaderManager	An abstract class associated with an Activity or Fragment for managing one or moreLoader instances. This helps an application manage longer-running operations in conjunction with the Activity or Fragment lifecycle; the most common use of this is with aCursorLoader, however applications are free to write their own loaders for loading other types of data.  There is only one LoaderManager per activity or fragment. But a LoaderManager can have multiple loaders.
LoaderManager.LoaderCallbacks	A callback interface for a client to interact with the LoaderManager. For example, you use the onCreateLoader() callback method to create a new loader.
Loader	An abstract class that performs asynchronous loading of data. This is the base class for a loader. You would typically use CursorLoader, but you can implement your own subclass. While loaders are active they should monitor the source of their data and deliver new results when the contents change.
AsyncTaskLoader	Abstract loader that provides an AsyncTask to do the work.
CursorLoader	A subclass of AsyncTaskLoader that queries the ContentResolver and returns a Cursor. This class implements the Loader protocol in a standard way for querying cursors, building on AsyncTaskLoader to perform the cursor query on a background thread so that it does not block the application's UI. Using this loader is the best way to asynchronously load data from a ContentProvider, instead of performing a managed query through the fragment or activity's APIs.

The classes and interfaces in the above table are the essential components you'll use to implement a loader in your application. You won't need all of them for each loader you create, but you'll always need a reference to the LoaderManager in order to initialize a loader and an implementation of a Loader class such as CursorLoader. The following sections show you how to use these classes and interfaces in an application.
