Search Manager Class Provides access to the system search services.

Search Manager class provides access to the system search services.

In practice, you won't interact with this class directly, as search services are provided through methods in Activity and the ACTION_SEARCH Intent. If you do require direct access to the SearchManager, do not instantiate this class directly. Instead, retrieve it through context.getSystemService(Context.SEARCH_SERVICE).
