内容监听器ContentObserver

内容监听器ContentObserver
android.database.ContentObserver
构造函数
public ContentObserver (Handler handler)
 onChange() will happen on the provider Handler.
参数
handler     The handler to run onChange(boolean) on. 
主要函数
public boolean deliverSelfNotifications ()
Returns true if this observer is interested in notifications for changes made through the cursor the observer is registered with.
注：这个函数的使用还是puzzle.
public final void dispatchChange (boolean selfChange)
注：这个是为提供用handler执行onChange的一个接口。所以一般比没必要重载它。
public void onChange (boolean selfChange)
This method is called when a change occurs to the cursor that is being observed.
参数
selfChange     true if the update was caused by a call to commit on the cursor that is being observed. 
注1:这个就是我们需要重载的函数，在里面可以实现对内容改变的个性化响应。
