You only need to bring the parameters according to the pre-specified rules. The parameters include the set function items and the function items. value.

For example: content://com.example.settings.SettingsProvider/ item=picture&value=1.

Among them: Item represents the set function item, and value represents the value of the set function item.

Step S300, the preset setting application converts the information carried by the Uri interface of the ContentProvider into a corresponding setting function, and returns the result to the external application.

Specifically, in this embodiment, the preset setting application converts the information carried by the Uri interface of the ContentProvider into the corresponding setting function, and returns the set result to the external application, and the preset setting application SettingsProvider brings the Uri interface of the ContentProvider with Some information is converted into the corresponding setting function, use the original setting module of the preset setting application to access the software development kit (SDK: Software Development Kit) of the manufacturer or the software development kit (SDK) of the Android system, and set the relevant functions The value of the item, and the result of whether the setting is successful or not is returned to the external application.

The inheritance relationship of the specific implementation classes of each object in the preset setting application is shown in FIG. 3 , which is an inheritance relationship diagram of the specific implementation classes of each object in a preferred embodiment of a method for uniformly setting interfaces of the present invention.

SettingsProvider internally parses the parameter value of the set function item through the proxy SettingsManager, for example: parse the picture as the set function item (Item) as the graphic effect backlight, and the set function item value (value value) is 1;

SettingsManager calls the original module interface of the preset setting application, such as: SystemManager, PictureManager, SoundManager, etc., and sets the value of the function item through the manufacturer's own software development kit (SDK) or the software development kit (SDK) of the Android system (value), for example: set the image effect backlight to 1;

After the setting (for example: setting the image effect backlight to 1) is completed, the result of whether the setting is successful will be returned to the external application: preset application or third-party application (APP) through the ContentProvider interface.

The present invention also provides a system for unifying setting interfaces, which is used to unify the setting interfaces of smart TVs of the Android system in a preset setting application, so that the setting items of the preset application can be connected uniformly, reducing workload and improving security, which is the first The three-party application access provides a basic setting interface, as shown in FIG.

The external application interface module 10 is used to provide the Uri access interface of the ContentProvider for external applications.
