Android Question Content Resolver/Provider

[mddmx]

I would like to ask for some help from you guys with respect to better understanding the concept of a Content Provider/Resolver.

Is it correct to assume ...

1). That a Content Provider is the SOURCE of some data
2). A Content Resolver is a protocol that allows other android applications to send and request data from a content provider.

I have created an built my application with it's own db. I would like to be able to

a). search my db when a caller id come in.
b). be able to add a caller to my db

Do you think this should be possible or am I trying to do the impossible.

Thank you, I would very much like to hear your comments.

Using the right code it IS possible.
Use the forum search to find Tutorials of using a db. UNDERSTAND them and be able to write your own simple testapps using it.
Use the forum search to find Tutorials of seeing an incoming number... UNDERSTAND them and be able to write your own simple testapps using it.
Combine you knowledges about the two and you´re ready...
