    <p>I've recently begun teaching myself Android development. Right now I'm making an app that shows a list of boxes; clicking on a box shows its contents. Each row view in the main list has a "delete" icon next to the box name. My ListAdapter is a subclass of <code>CursorAdapter</code>. In the <code>bindView()</code> method of <code>CursorAdapter</code>, I do the following:</p> <pre><code>@Override public void bindView(View view, Context context, Cursor cursor) { TextView name = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.text_box_name); name.setText(cursor.getString(cursor .getColumnIndex(DatabaseContract.BoxEntry.NAME))); name.setFocusable(false); ImageButton delete = (ImageButton) view.findViewById(R.id.button_box_delete); delete.setFocusable(false); delete.setTag(cursor.getLong(0)); delete.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View view) { long id = ((Long) view.getTag()); } }); } </code></pre> <p>As you can see, I've tagged each ImageButton with the ID of the box it should delete. What I would like to be able to do here is this:</p> <pre><code>getContentResolver().delete(uri...); </code></pre> <p>This code would tell my custom <code>ContentProvider</code> to delete that box and all its contents. The obvious problem is that from the context of my <code>CursorAdapter</code>, I can't call <code>getContextResolver</code>. What would be the best way to go about talking to my <code>ContentProvider</code> from within the <code>CursorAdapter</code>? Thanks in advance!</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
