[mono-android] How to get UID using getContentResolver

[Tommy Hinrichs]

The hint to the answer here is this snippet from the documentation [0] "You
get a ContentResolver by calling
getContentResolver()<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Context.html#getContentResolver()>
from
within the implementation of an Activity".

So, assuming you are within the context of an Activity, the following line
of code should be what you want.

using Android.Provider;

...

var deviceId = Settings.Secure.GetString(ContentResolver,
Settings.Secure.AndroidId);



* Note that ContentResolver above is really this.ContentResolver, but
persuant to general c# standards I left it out.

Then I thought maybe it would be clearer if I added this note since
you were specifically asking where the ContentResolver property lives.
