Provides classes that manage application preferences and implement the preferences UI.
|
||
|
Using these ensures that all the preferences within each application are maintained
|
||
|
in the same manner and the user experience is consistent with that of the system and
|
||
|
other applications.
|
||
|
<p>
|
||
|
The preferences portion of an application
|
||
|
should be ran as a separate {@link android.app.Activity} that extends
|
||
|
the {@link android.preference.PreferenceActivity} class. In the PreferenceActivity, a
|
||
|
{@link android.preference.PreferenceScreen} object should be the root element of the layout.
|
||
|
The PreferenceScreen contains {@link android.preference.Preference} elements such as a
|
||
|
{@link android.preference.CheckBoxPreference}, {@link android.preference.EditTextPreference},
|
||
|
{@link android.preference.ListPreference}, {@link android.preference.PreferenceCategory},
|
||
|
or {@link android.preference.RingtonePreference}. </p>
|
||
|
<p>
|
||
|
All settings made for a given {@link android.preference.Preference} will be automatically saved
|
||
|
to the application's instance of {@link android.content.SharedPreferences}. Access to the
|
||
|
SharedPreferences is simple with {@link android.preference.Preference#getSharedPreferences()}.</p>
|
||
|
<p>
|
||
|
Note that saved preferences are accessible only to the application that created them.</p>
