    copied!<p>I'm having trouble with matching URIs in my <code>ContentProvider</code>. It will match paths with one or two "tags" (not sure what the correct term is), for example it can recognize <code>box/#</code>. But as soon as I add a second tag, for example <code>box/#/item</code>, I throw an <code>InvalidArgumentException</code> and my app crashes. I've read in several threads on here that this issue can sometimes be solved by changing the order of the URIs added to the <code>UriMatcher</code>; I tried this, but to no avail. Anyone know what the problem is? I've excerpted relevant parts of my code below.</p> <p>From my <code>ContentProvider</code>:</p> <pre><code>private static final String AUTHORITY = "com.example.boxdatabase.DatabaseProvider"; // Type of query public static final int BOXES = 100; ... public static final Uri CONTENT_URI = Uri.parse("content://" + AUTHORITY); ... // URI Matcher for queries private static final UriMatcher sURIMatcher = new UriMatcher(UriMatcher.NO_MATCH); static { sURIMatcher.addURI(AUTHORITY, "box/#/item", BOX_ITEM); sURIMatcher.addURI(AUTHORITY, "box/#/item/#", BOX_ITEM_ID); sURIMatcher.addURI(AUTHORITY, "box", BOXES); sURIMatcher.addURI(AUTHORITY, "box/#", BOXES_ID); sURIMatcher.addURI(AUTHORITY, "item", ITEMS); sURIMatcher.addURI(AUTHORITY, "item/#", ITEMS_ID); } </code></pre> <p>An example of where I try to access my <code>ContentProvider</code> and it fails:</p> <pre><code>return new CursorLoader(this, Uri.withAppendedPath( DatabaseProvider.CONTENT_URI, "box/" + boxId + "/item"), DatabaseContract.BoxItemEntry.ALL_COLUMNS, null, null, null); </code></pre>
