Interface associated with an Activity or Fragment for managing one or more Loader instances associated with it. This helps an application manage longer-running operations in conjunction with the Activity or Fragment lifecycle; the most common use of this is with a CursorLoader, however applications are free to write their own loaders for loading other types of data. While the LoaderManager API was introduced in VERSION_CODES.HONEYCOMB, a version of the API at is also available for use on older platforms through FragmentActivity. See the blog post Fragments For All for more details.

As an example, here is the full implementation of a Fragment that displays a ListView containing the results of a query against the contacts content provider. It uses a CursorLoader to manage the query on the provider. {@sample development/samples/ApiDemos/src/com/example/android/apis/app/LoaderCursor.java fragment_cursor}

Instantiate and return a new Loader for the given ID.

  • args – Any arguments supplied by the caller.
Returns:Return a new Loader instance that is ready to start loading.
/** * Instantiate and return a new Loader for the given ID. * * @param id The ID whose loader is to be created. * @param args Any arguments supplied by the caller. * @return Return a new Loader instance that is ready to start loading. */
public Loader<D> onCreateLoader(int id, Bundle args);
Called when a previously created loader has finished its load. Note that normally an application is not allowed to commit fragment transactions while in this call, since it can happen after an activity's state is saved. See FragmentManager.openTransaction() for further discussion on this.

This function is guaranteed to be called prior to the release of the last data that was supplied for this Loader. At this point you should remove all use of the old data (since it will be released soon), but should not do your own release of the data since its Loader owns it and will take care of that. The Loader will take care of management of its data so you don't have to. In particular:

Params:
  • loader – The Loader that has finished.
  • data – The data generated by the Loader.
/** * Called when a previously created loader has finished its load.

In particular: * * <ul> * <li> <p>The Loader will monitor for changes to the data, and report * them to you through new calls here. You should not monitor the * data yourself. For example, if the data is a {@link android.database.Cursor} * and you place it in a {@link android.widget.CursorAdapter}, use * the {@link android.widget.CursorAdapter#CursorAdapter(android.content.Context, * android.database.Cursor, int)} constructor <em>without</em> passing * in either {@link android.widget.CursorAdapter#FLAG_AUTO_REQUERY} * or {@link android.widget.CursorAdapter#FLAG_REGISTER_CONTENT_OBSERVER} * (that is, use 0 for the flags argument). This prevents the CursorAdapter * from doing its own observing of the Cursor, which is not needed since * when a change happens you will get a new Cursor throw another call * here. * <li> The Loader will release the data once it knows the application * is no longer using it. For example, if the data is * a {@link android.database.Cursor} from a {@link android.content.CursorLoader}, * you should not call close() on it yourself. If the Cursor is being placed in a * {@link android.widget.CursorAdapter}, you should use the * {@link android.widget.CursorAdapter#swapCursor(android.database.Cursor)} * method so that the old Cursor is not closed. * </ul> * * @param loader The Loader that has finished. * @param data The data generated by the Loader. */
public void onLoadFinished(Loader<D> loader, D data);
Called when a previously created loader is being reset, and thus making its data unavailable. The application should at this point remove any references it has to the Loader's data.
Params:
  • loader – The Loader that is being reset.
/** * Called when a previously created loader is being reset, and thus * making its data unavailable. The application should at this point * remove any references it has to the Loader's data. * * @param loader The Loader that is being reset. */

Ensures a loader is initialized and active. If the loader doesn't already exist, one is created and (if the activity/fragment is currently started) starts the loader. Otherwise the last created loader is re-used.

In either case, the given callback is associated with the loader, and will be called as the loader state changes. If at the point of call the caller is in its started state, and the requested loader already exists and has generated its data, then callback LoaderCallbacks.onLoadFinished will be called immediately (inside of this function), so you must be prepared for this to happen.

Params:
  • id – A unique identifier for this loader. Can be whatever you want. Identifiers are scoped to a particular LoaderManager instance.
  • args – Optional arguments to supply to the loader at construction. If a loader already exists (a new one does not need to be created), this parameter will be ignored and the last arguments continue to be used.
  • callback – Interface the LoaderManager will call to report about changes in the state of the loader. Required.

Call to initialize a particular ID with a Loader. If this ID already has a Loader associated with it, it is left unchanged and any previous callbacks replaced with the newly provided ones. If there is not currently a Loader for the ID, a new one is created and started.

This function should generally be used when a component is initializing, to ensure that a Loader it relies on is created. This allows it to re-use an existing Loader's data if there already is one, so that for example when an Activity is re-created after a configuration change it does not need to re-create its loaders.

Note that in the case where an existing Loader is re-used, the args given here will be ignored because you will continue using the previous Loader.

Params:
  • id – A unique (to this LoaderManager instance) identifier under which to manage the new Loader.
  • args – Optional arguments that will be propagated to LoaderCallbacks.onCreateLoader().
  • callback – Interface implementing management of this Loader. Required. Its onCreateLoader() method will be called while inside of the function to instantiate the Loader object.
