Class Overview
A sub-directory of a single raw contact that contains all of its
ContactsContract.Data
rows. To access this directory append
CONTENT_DIRECTORY
to the raw contact URI. See
ContactsContract.RawContactsEntity
for a stand-alone table containing the same
data.
Entity has two ID fields: _ID
for the raw contact
and DATA_ID
for the data rows.
Entity always contains at least one row, even if there are no
actual data rows. In this case the DATA_ID
field will be
null.
Using Entity should be preferred to using two separate queries:
RawContacts followed by Data. The reason is that Entity reads all
data for a raw contact in one transaction, so there is no possibility
of the data changing between the two queries.
