| Scott Main | 50992e8 | 2009-08-29 13:08:18 -0700 | [diff] [blame^] | 1 | <p>A sample application that demonstrates Android's search framework.</p> |
| 2 | |
| 3 | <p>This application includes a dictionary of words. By invoking a search inside the app |
| 4 | (via the device search button or Menu > Search), a local search will be performed |
| 5 | across the dictionary. As you type, suggestions will appear, which you can select |
| 6 | to view the full definition. You can also execute the search to view all word definitions |
| 7 | that match the entered text.</p> |
| 8 | |
| 9 | <p>The application also grants content provider privileges to |
| 10 | Quick Search Box, Android's system-wide search tool. This means that the |
| 11 | dictionary definitions can be offered as search suggestions outside of the application, |
| 12 | when text is entered into Quick Search Box.</p> |
