public class ContentObserverActivity extends Activity {
Button registerbutton;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
registerbutton=(Button)findViewById(R.id.button1);
registerbutton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
getContentResolver()
.registerContentObserver(
ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI, true,
new MyCOntentObserver());
}
});
}
public class MyCOntentObserver extends ContentObserver{
public MyCOntentObserver() {
super(null);
}
@Override
public void onChange(boolean selfChange) {
super.onChange(selfChange);
Log.e("","~~~~~~"+selfChange);
}
@Override
public boolean deliverSelfNotifications() {
return true;
}
}
}
Thanks in advance.
Observer does not provide the information that which contact is added/update/deleted. To get to know this save the contacts in your own DB table and when observer send the change notification check it with system's Contacts.
