1.批处理访问：你能够用ContentProviderOperation类中的方法创建一个访问的批处理调用，然后把这个批处理调用应用于ContentResolver.applyBatch()方法；
2.异步查询：你应该在一个独立的线程中做查询的动作，使用CursorLoader对象是异步方法之一。在“装载器”指南中的例子演示怎样使用这个对象；
3.通过Intent访问数据：虽然你不能直接给提供器发送一个Intent对象，但是你可以给提供的应用程序发送一个Intent对象，这通常是修改提供器数据的最好方式。
批处理访问和通过Intent对象的修改会在以下章节中来描述。
批处理访问
对于提供器的批处理访问对用同一个方法向一个或多个表中插入大量的数据，或是执行一般的跨进程的原子化的事务性操作是有益的。
要用批处理模式访问一个提供器，就需要创建一个ContentProviderOperation对象的数组，然后把这个数组分发给内容提供器的ContentResolver.applyBatch()方法。你要把这个内容提供器的权限传递给这个方法，而不是特定的内容URI，因为它允许数组中每个ContentProviderOperation对象针对不同的表来工作。一个ContentResolver.applyBatch()方法返回一个结果数组。
以下示例代码（ContactAdder.java）演示批处理插入：

通过Intent访问数据
Intent对象能够提供对内容提供器进行间接访问的能力。即使你的应用程序没有访问一个内容提供器的权限，你既可以通过从有权限的应用程序中返回的Intent的对象中获得一个结果，也可以通过激活有权限的应用程序并且让用户在这个应用程序中工作，从而达到允许用户访问提供器中数据的要求。
用临时权限获得访问能力
即使你没有适当访问权限，你也能够通过给有访问权限的应用程序发送一个Intent对象和接受包含的“URI”权限的Intent的返回对象来访问一个内容提供器中的数据。这些针对特定的内容URI的权限会一直维持到接受它们的Activity被退出。有持久权限的应用程序通过在返回结果的Intent对象中设置以下标识来批准临时权限：
1.读权限：FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION
2.写权限：FLAG_GRANT_WRITE_URI_PERMISSION
注意：这些标识不给出访问提供器一般的读写权限，它只包含了对内容URI所指向的数据的授权，只能访问URI自己。
提供器在它的清单文件中使用<provider>元素的android：grantUriPermission属性，以及<provider>元素的<grant-uri-permission>子元素来给内容URIs定义权限。URI权限机制在“安全和权限”指南的“URI权限”一节中会更详细的进行解释。
例如，即使你没有READ_CONTACTS权限，你也能够获取通信录提供器中的一条通信录数据。你可能想用一个应用程序在他或她的生日时发送一个祝福，因此你希望用户通过应用程序来控制要使用的通信录，而不是申请READ_CONTACTS权限，让它给你访问所有的用户通信录和他们的所有信息。使用以下过程实现这个想法。
1.使用startActivityForResult()方法发送一个Intent对象，这个对象中包含了ACTION_PICK动作和CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE的通信录MIME类型；
2.因为这个Intent对象跟People应用程序的“selection”Activity的Intent过滤器匹配，那么这个Activity将会显示到前台；
3.在这个“selection”的Activity中，用户选择一个要更新的通信录，这时，“selection”Activity会调用setResult(resultcode, intent)方法来设置一个返回给你的应用程序的Intent对象。这个Intent对象包含了被用户选中的通信录的内容资源标识（URI），并且附加了FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION标识。这个标识批准了你的应用程序读取由内容资源标识（URI）指定的通讯录的数据的URI权限，然后“selection”Activity调用finish()方法返回来控制你的应用程序；
4.你的应用程序返回到前台，并且系统会调用你的Activity的onActivityResult()方法，这个方法会接收由People应用程序中“selection”Activity创建的Intent对象；
5.使用来自结果Intent对象的内容资源标识（URI），你能够从通信录提供器中读取通信录的数据，即使你没有在清单文件中申请持久的对这个提供器的访问权限。然后你就能够获得通信录中他或她的生日、电子邮件地址等信息，然后发送祝福。
使用另外的应用程序
对于没有访问权限的应用程序要允许用户修改数据的一个简单方法时激活一个有访问权限的应用程序，并且让用户在这个应用程序中工作。
例如，Calendar应用程序接收ACTION_INSERT动作Intent对象，这个对象允许你激活这个应用程序的插入事件界面，你能够在这个Intent对象中传递附加的数据。因为周期性事件有复杂的语法，把事件插入日历提供器的首选方法是用ACTION_INSERT动作激活Calendar应用，然后让用户在那儿来插入事件。
