[android-developers] Re: SecurityException in RemoteViewsService?

I can't see an easy way of doing what you want, as the remote view is not running in the same process as your content provider.

Maybe you could use aidl but that would still leave you with an "exposed" external interface.

Error accessing content provider in RemoteViewService

Hi,

I'm trying to build a home screen widget for my app and I am using stackview, remoteviewservice. In the RemoteViewsService, I need to query the content provider. My cotent provider is set exported=false. However, when I want to add the widget on screen, I get this error

java.lang.SecurityException: Permission Denial: reading com.xxx.android.provider.yyyContentProvider uri content://com.zzz.an

If I set the provider to exported=true, it works well. But I don't want this solution. Anyone can helps me? Thanks.
