| <p>This sample demonstrates the use of XML adapters.</p> |
| <p>An XML Adapter is an XML file which defines the bindings between the data |
| <a href="../../../reference/android/content/ContentProvider.html"><code>ContentProvider</code></a> |
| and the different views of a layout. They are provided by the |
| <a href="../../../reference/android/widget/Adapters.html"><code>Adapters</code></a> |
| Three list activities are provided which illustrate this: |
| <li><a href="src/com/example/android/xmladapters/ContactsListActivity.html"><strong> |
| ContactsListActivity</strong></a> uses the device's Contacts provider as its input source. |
| Contacts with a phone number are displayed, their photo being retrieved by a dedicated |
| <a href="src/com/example/android/xmladapters/ContactPhotoBinder.html"><code>ContactPhotoBinder |
| <li><a href="src/com/example/android/xmladapters/PhotosListActivity.html"><strong> |
| PhotosListActivity</strong></a> retrieves an RSS photo feed and displays the images and their |
| titles. The images are downloaded from the URL found in the feed using the |
| <a href="src/com/example/android/xmladapters/ImageDownloader.html"><code>ImageDownloader</code> |
| <li><a href="src/com/example/android/xmladapters/RssReaderActivity.html"><strong> |
| RssReaderActivity</strong></a> also displays items extracted from an RSS feed. An additional |
| <a href="src/com/example/android/xmladapters/UrlIntentListener.html"><code>UrlIntentListener |
| </code></a> is used to open a browser when one of the news item is tapped.</li> |
