Android Calendar, get Event Id



i'm writing an application that need to add some events to a calendar in android. For inserting i just used the following code:







public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> adapter, View curview, int position, long id) {

WhoisEntry entry = this.adapter.getItem(position);

String domainName = entry.getDomainName();

Date expDate = entry.expirationDate;

Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Domain: " + domainName, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_EDIT);

intent.setType("vnd.android.cursor.item/event");

intent.putExtra("beginTime", entry.expirationDate);

intent.putExtra("allDay", false);

intent.putExtra("endTime", cal.getTimeInMillis()+60*60*1000);

intent.putExtra("title", "Expiration of " + entry.domainName);

startActivity(intent);

}







Now i'm wondering if is possible to get an id associated to that event, in that way after an event is inserted, and its id is saved into my application, the user can recall that event directly from inside the application. Is it possible?

Why is this Javascript much *slower* than its jQuery equivalent?

I have a HTML list of about 500 items and a "filter" box above it. I started by using jQuery to filter the list when I typed a letter (timing code added later): $('#filter').keyup( function() { var jqStart = (new Date).getTime(); var search = $(this).val().toLowerCase(); var $list = $('ul.ablist > li'); $list.each( function() { if ( $(this).text().toLowerCase().indexOf(search) === -1 ) $(this).hide(); else $(this).show(); } ); console.log('Time: ' + ((new Date).getTime() - jqStart)); } ); However, there was a couple of seconds delay after typing each letter (particularly the first letter). So I thought it may be slightly quicker if I used plain Javascript (I read recently that jQuery's each function is particularly slow). Here's my JS equivalent: document.getElementById('filter').addEventListener( 'keyup', function () { var jsStart = (new Date).getTime()...
