Methods' Details
getContentIdentifier
string getContentIdentifier(); |  |
Description returns the content identifier string. Returns the content identifier string. This must be a valid URI (Uniform Resource Identifier, see RFC 2396). This string is required. If a content provider 'implements' some existent URI scheme (e.g., a content provider offering access to a file system would implement the 'file' scheme, and a content provider offering access to IMAP servers would implement the 'imap' scheme), the content identifier strings should use that scheme. If on the other hand a content provider offers access to content for which no appropriate URI scheme exists, a vendor-specific URL scheme starting with 'vnd.' must be created (see the Internet Draft draft-king-vnd-urlscheme-00.txt).
getContentProviderScheme
string getContentProviderScheme(); |  |
Description returns the content provider scheme string. This string will be calculated from the content identifier string and must be lower-cased(!). It is the 'scheme' the content provider is registered for. In example, a provider for FTP contents will use ftp-URL's as content identifiers. The content provider scheme for all contents provided by that provider will be "ftp". Returns the content provider scheme string.
