我们有时在处理数据时可能用Cursor比较方便。但我们如何自己创造一个Cursor呢？
这时我们可以用Android为我们提供的MatrixCursor类，自己创造一个Cursor。
下面通过一个事例来分析，如何创造一个Cursor作为SimpleCursorAdapter的数据来源。
##1、Activity布局
android:textSize="24sp"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="班级"
android:textSize="24sp"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="学号"
android:textSize="24sp"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
/>
</LinearLayout>
<ListView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="@+id/listView"
/>
</LinearLayout>
##2、ListView中的数据布局
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<TextView
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="@+id/name"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="@+id/banji"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="@+id/studentID"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
/>
</LinearLayout>
##3、模拟从服务器获取数据
public class MyDataBase {
private static int count = 0;
public static String[]Column = null;
public static String[] getColumn(){
if(null == Column){
return new String[]{"姓名","班级","学号"};
}
return Column;
}
public static Object[] getColumnData(){
count++;
return new Object[]{new Integer(count),"zhangsan"+count,"jisuanji"+count,"201210"+count};
}
}
##4、Activity
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
private ListView listView;
private SimpleCursorAdapter sca;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
listView = (ListView) this.findViewById(R.id.listView);
Cursor cursor = getCursor();
String[] from = {"姓名","班级","学号"};
int[] to = {R.id.name,R.id.banji,R.id.studentID};
sca = new SimpleCursorAdapter(MainActivity.this, R.layout.adapter_view, cursor, from, to, 0);
listView.setAdapter(sca);
}
private Cursor getCursor() {
String[] columnNames = new String[4];
int i = 0;
columnNames[i] = "_id";
for(String columnName : MyDataBase.getColumn()){
columnNames[++i] = columnName;
}
MatrixCursor cursor = new MatrixCursor(columnNames);
for(int j = 0; j<10; j++){
cursor.addRow(MyDataBase.getColumnData());
}
return cursor;
}
}
##5、运行结果
##6、MatrixCursor源码分析
其实创造一个Cursor很简单！！！我们现在需要去查看源码分析下，android工程师的大牛们是如何实现MatrixCursor的。

通过分析我们得知：
1：Android大牛们，通过在MatrixCursor中封装一个Object[]数组保存我们每一列的值；通过一个常引用String[] columnNames来保存我们的列名。所以一旦我们的MatrixCursor对象建立，它的列名就不可改变。我们以后的数据存放都要依据我们的列名。
2：MatrixCursor通过 int rowCount = 0 来记录行数、private final int columnCount 记录列数。通过这两个数我们可以很容易的知道每一行数据在Object[]数组的区间。
3：MatrixCursor通过实现AbstractCursor中的抽象方法；当我们获取数据时调用MatrixCursor中复写的方法，来获取指定的行列值。
获取值最重要的方法是：
private Object get(int column) {
if (column < 0 || column >= columnCount) {
throw new CursorIndexOutOfBoundsException("Requested column: "
+ column + ", # of columns: " + columnCount);
}
if (mPos < 0) {
throw new CursorIndexOutOfBoundsException("Before first row.");
}
if (mPos >= rowCount) {
throw new CursorIndexOutOfBoundsException("After last row.");
}
return data[mPos * columnCount + column];
}
无非就是两个值：mPos、column
mPos：代表了我们当前的要访问的行
column：代表我们当前要访问的列
###MatrixCursor内部类：RowBuilder
RowBuilder作用就是用来给MatrixCursor添加Row数据的，不过我们经常通过MatrixCursor.addRow()实现。就像AlertDialog.Builder一样，我们既可以通过AlertDialog.Builder来构建一个对话框，也可以通过AlertDialg直接来实现。
