android-Creating a Content Provider（2）

For content URIs that point to a row or rows of table data, getType() should return a MIME type in Android's vendor-specific MIME format:

• Type part: vnd
• Subtype part:
  • If the URI pattern is for a single row: android.cursor.item/
  • If the URI pattern is for more than one row: android.cursor.dir/
• Provider-specific part: vnd.<name>.<type>

  You supply the <name> and <type>. The <name> value should be globally unique, and the <type> value should be unique to the corresponding URI pattern. A good choice for <name> is your company's name or some part of your application's Android package name. A good choice for the <type> is a string that identifies the table associated with the URI.

Attributes that specify the permissions that other applications must have in order to access the provider's data:

• android:grantUriPermssions: Temporary permission flag.
• android:permission: Single provider-wide read/write permission.
• android:readPermission: Provider-wide read permission.
• android:writePermission: Provider-wide write permission.

Permissions and their corresponding attributes are described in more detail in the section Implementing Content Provider Permissions.
