Writing a content provider

[SydneyWaterBoy]

I want to write a local (in phone) SQL content provider as a service such that it can be called from more than one app. Each app will ask for data from the content provider or provide data back to it, using, I would think, pre-defined calls that the content provider makes available.

Is this possible in basic4Android:
a) write a service that is accessible from multiple applications
b) the service can be called by an app and then using pre-defined requests past data to/from the service provider

If so - are there any examples of this.

Thanks.

Anton

You cannot write a content provider without building a library for that.
However you can communicate with another process by sending an intent to the service receiver.
