Question

Is there a way to limit the result retrieved from mediastore using managedQuery function on Android. Since I currently have a grid that displaying all photos found on the sd card but it is too intensive of fetching it so I decide to limit the result retrieved from the media store but could not find a limit function that can reduce the resulting set of data.

Please help

use order in contentresolver’s query method to implement your function,
such as ‘columnname asc limit number’

in my case:

cursor = resolver.query(STORAGE_URI, projection,
                        Media.BUCKET_DISPLAY_NAME + "=?",
                        new String[] { folderName },
                        " _id asc limit " + num);
