Android Content Provider tied to external storage (text file)
<p>I'm trying to code a system for running user studies. I have a webpage and a webservice on top of a user DB.
My Android app is a client to run the studies on. I'm use the Account Manager to store user credentials authenticated via the webservice. The point is to then implement a sync adapter that will send a text file with study data to my server, via the webservice (using the credentials).</p>

<p>My problem is that I'm having difficulty with the Content Provider, I've searched a lot throught the web but I can't seem to find an example of how to code a Content Provider tied to a file on external storage. All the examples I find use Content Providers tied to database tables. Can someone please point me in the right direction or shed some coding light? (BTW, I have read the Android Developer texts on Content Providers, also, I'm using Android 2.2).</p>

<p>Any help is appreciated.</p>

<p>Cheers,
André Coelho</p>
