Remarks

Provides the structured interface through which a BackupAgent commits information to the backup data set, via its BackupAgent#onBackup(ParcelFileDescriptor,BackupDataOutput,ParcelFileDescriptor) onBackup() method. Data written for backup is presented as a set of "entities," key/value pairs in which each binary data record "value" is named with a string "key."

To commit a data record to the backup transport, the agent's BackupAgent#onBackup(ParcelFileDescriptor,BackupDataOutput,ParcelFileDescriptor) onBackup() method first writes an "entity header" that supplies the key string for the record and the total size of the binary value for the record. After the header has been written, the agent then writes the binary entity value itself. The entity value can be written in multiple chunks if desired, as long as the total count of bytes written matches what was supplied to #writeEntityHeader(String, int) writeEntityHeader().

Entity key strings are considered to be unique within a given application's backup data set. If a backup agent writes a new entity under an existing key string, its value will replace any previous value in the transport's remote data store. You can remove a record entirely from the remote data set by writing a new entity header using the existing record's key, but supplying a negative dataSize parameter. When you do so, the agent does not need to call #writeEntityData(byte[], int). <h3>Example</h3>

Here is an example illustrating a way to back up the value of a String variable called mStringToBackUp:

static final String MY_STRING_KEY = "storedstring";

            public void {@link BackupAgent#onBackup(ParcelFileDescriptor, BackupDataOutput, ParcelFileDescriptor) onBackup(ParcelFileDescriptor oldState, BackupDataOutput data, ParcelFileDescriptor newState)}
                    throws IOException {
                ...
                byte[] stringBytes = mStringToBackUp.getBytes();
                data.writeEntityHeader(MY_STRING_KEY, stringBytes.length);
                data.writeEntityData(stringBytes, stringBytes.length);
                ...
            }
