Can someone explain to me this StaleDataException

When and how do we need to assure a requiry on the cursor, and why fails with this Exception?

You are trying to retrieve information from a Cursor that has already been closed. You must verify whether the cursor is closed or not by using the isClosed method.

---

You can't close the cursor until CursorAdapter is no longer needed. So you can close it in onDestroy() method:

@Override
public void onDestroy() {
 super.onDestroy();

     //Close the cursor
     cursor.close();
     //Close the database
     database.close();
    }

In my case, I was closing the cursor in the onStop() method. It turned out that the rotation of the screen was causing this code to run and hence give the StaleDataException.

Use Activity.getContentResolver.query() instead of Activity.managedQuery(). Because managedQuery() is deprecated. It works for me.
