    if(c!=null && c.getCount()&g         


        

Answer 1

Best practice is the one below:

Cursor c = null;    
try {        
   c = query(....);      
   while (c.moveToNext()) {  // If empty or next to last record it returns false.    
      // do stuff..       
   }
} finally {
   if (c != null && !c.isClosed()) {  // If cursor is empty even though should close it.       
   c.close();
   c = null;  // high chances of quick memory release.
}
