25 /**
26  * This class is the contract a client should implement to enable support of a
27  * virtual view hierarchy rooted at a given view for accessibility purposes. A virtual
28  * view hierarchy is a tree of imaginary Views that is reported as a part of the view
29  * hierarchy when an {@link AccessibilityService} explores the window content.
30  * Since the virtual View tree does not exist this class is responsible for
31  * managing the {@link AccessibilityNodeInfo}s describing that tree to accessibility
32  * services.
33  * </p>
34  * <p>
35  * The main use case of these APIs is to enable a custom view that draws complex content,
36  * for example a monthly calendar grid, to be presented as a tree of logical nodes,
37  * for example month days each containing events, thus conveying its logical structure.
38  * <p>
39  * <p>
40  * A typical use case is to override {@link View#getAccessibilityNodeProvider()} of the
41  * View that is a root of a virtual View hierarchy to return an instance of this class.
42  * In such a case this instance is responsible for managing {@link AccessibilityNodeInfo}s
43  * describing the virtual sub-tree rooted at the View including the one representing the
44  * View itself. Similarly the returned instance is responsible for performing accessibility
45  * actions on any virtual view or the root view itself. For example:
46  * </p>
47  * <pre>
48  *     getAccessibilityNodeProvider(
49  *         if (mAccessibilityNodeProvider == null) {
50  *             mAccessibilityNodeProvider = new AccessibilityNodeProvider() {
51  *                 public boolean performAction(int action, int virtualDescendantId) {
52  *                     // Implementation.
53  *                     return false;
54  *                 }
55  *
56  *                 public List<AccessibilityNodeInfo> findAccessibilityNodeInfosByText(String text,
57  *                         int virtualDescendantId) {
58  *                     // Implementation.
59  *                     return null;
60  *                 }
61  *
62  *                 public AccessibilityNodeInfo createAccessibilityNodeInfo(int virtualDescendantId) {
63  *                     // Implementation.
64  *                     return null;
65  *                 }
66  *             });
