chapter 5 ContactPicker

The book is showing incorrect coding on ContactPicker and ContactPickerTester. On both class, I had to replace

Code:

final Cursor c = managedQuery(data, null, null, null);

to this

Code:

final Cursor c = managedQuery(data, null, null, null, null);

I get a force close after clicking "pick contact" but if I replace

Code:

Intent intent = new Intent (Intent.ACTION_PICK, Uri.parse("content://contacts/"));

with

Code:

Intent intent = new Intent (Intent.ACTION_PICK, Uri.parse("content://contacts/people"));

it works.

Is the replacement code what the book should have? or I have incorrect coding in my source code?

duh, "content://contacts/people" is for the native contact list. "content://contacts/" works. I had a typo on my listitemlayout.xml. The culprit

Code:

android:layout_heigth="wrap_content"

I missed spelled height.
