How to trigger MediaScan on Nexus 7?

Question

Because I want to make sure the MediaStore has the latest information without having to reboot I\'d like to trigger the MediaScanner using the popular way I found on SO

using the popular way I found on SO

Any ideas/alternatives?

Use MediaScannerConnection, such as via its scanFile() static method.
