| <p>A sample application that demonstrates Android's search framework.</p> |
| |
| <p>This application includes a dictionary of words. By invoking a search inside the app |
| (via the device search button or Menu > Search), a local search will be performed |
| across the dictionary. As you type, suggestions will appear, which you can select |
| to view the full definition. You can also execute the search to view all word definitions |
| that match the entered text.</p> |
| |
| <p>The application also grants content provider privileges to |
| Quick Search Box, Android's system-wide search tool. This means that the |
| dictionary definitions can be offered as search suggestions outside of the application, |
| when text is entered into Quick Search Box.</p> |
