Android :: Insert Data In To A Single Column Of An Existed Table?

Jul 15, 2010

I have two files, one called "part1.txt" and another one called "part2.txt", which look like following

part1.txt part2.txt
lili like eating apple
lucy like playing football

Now i want to insert the contents of these two files into a single table with the schema

table_name(linefrompart1 varchar(100), linefrompart2 varchar(50))

My program reads the first file line by line and insert the data into the first column. But if it reads the second file and tries to insert the data line by line into the second column, it doesn't work the way i want. A table which i want should look like following

linefrompart1 linefrompart2
lili like eating apple
lucy like playing football

But instead i got the following table

linefrompart1 linefrompart2
lili null
lucy null
null like eating apple
null like playing football

Does somebody know how i can fix this problem?

Android :: Insert Data On Sqlite Database Table From Word Or Excel Document?

May 22, 2010

In my project, I would like to create a database with single table. I would also like to insert data on this table from word or excel document. is it possible? if so please how can I do it? some code snippets would be of great help. I have four different activities which I would like them to interact with this single table. the first is the main activity and its purpose is just to launch the other three activities according to user choice. so it has no interaction with the DB. but the other three activities will read from the table whenever called. Can you please tell me how to call the dbhelper on these activities? I am unable to do this and I am currently creating one db per each activity which is not the optimal way.

Android :: Two Column Table

Jul 29, 2010

I'm not big into UI programming so this may be an easy thing I overlooked. I am trying have a screen that shows 8 TextView in a 2 column x 4 row table. And, of course, I want the TextViews, that might have different lengths, to be centered. I tried this in a table layout, for obvious reasons but I feel like this is not the way to do it because it doesn't have much control where I put everything once it is in a row. Should I be using a different combinations of layouts or is there something I overlooked.

Android :: Detect If A Table Contains A Column In Droid / Sqlite

Apr 20, 2010

So I have an app on the market, and with an update I want to add some columns to the database. No problems so far. But I want to detect if the database in use is missing these columns, and add them if this is the case. I need this to be done dynamically and not just after the update to the new version, because the application is supposed to still be able to import older databases. Normally I would be able to use the PRAGMA query, but Im not sure how to do this with Android. I cant use execSQL since it is a query, and I cant figure out how to use PRAGMA with the query()-function.

Ofcourse I could just catch exceptions and then add the column, or always add the columns to each table before I start to work with it, but that is not a neat solution.

Android : Delete Row In Database Table Given One Column Value - Which Is A String

Jul 22, 2010

I have a table with column headings: | _id (long) | Name (String) | x (integer) | y (integer) |

I want to delete the row in the table that has Name myName.

// In onCreate
dbHelper = new DBAdapter(this);
dbHelper.open()

// Function in DBAdapter class
public boolean deleteTitleGivenName(String myName)
{return dbHelper.delete(DATABASE_TABLE_2, KEY_NAME + "=" + myName, null) > 0;}

// Function call in java code
dbHelper.deleteTitleGivenName(myName); // this is where my code fails

dbHelper.close();

Just as a note: myName is for sure in the database. Also, I can not use the ROWID since I am getting myName from a ListView.

I just started programming with Android and I have tried for days to solve this problem.
Is my WHERE clause correct (KEY_NAME + "=" + myName)?

Android :: Speed Up Single SQLite Insert?

Nov 1, 2010

I have a database (stored on a Class 6 SD card) with a single empty table (5 columns). There is an index on each column. Performing a single INSERT statement (whether using an SQLiteStatement or calling SQLiteDatabase.insert()) takes about 800ms on my N1 (2.2.1). The INSERT statement does NOT do anything fancy (like subselects). Is there any way to speed this up?

ListView Seems Only To Work With A Single Column

Oct 21, 2011

I am new to android development and have been tasked with developing an app. One of the screens will require there to be a list of people with some thumbnail information about them, similar to:

Code:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="?android:attr/listPreferredItemHeight"
[code]....

This information will be stored in an SQLite DB. Now I can see that listView seems only to work with a single column. What is the best way to go about this?

Android :: Retrieve Single Column Of Last Row In Sqlite / Droid Using ORDER ID Desc Limit 1

Nov 10, 2010

I'm attempting to create a method that will allow me to retrieve a value from the last row of a database, and then insert it into an EditText field. (This is a value that the user will not change all that often, so it would be helpful if when they do set it, it stays set when they come back to it).

My method, based on a similar method I have for getting the total of a specific column, is as such. code...

If I run the program without this statement, it works fine and the value saves to the db. As soon as I try to run it with this, I get a force close. Any suggestions?

Android :: Determining Data Type Of Column In SQLite

Jun 23, 2010

I'm working on an Android App where the user has different options for sorting the displayed data that comes from the database. Currently my orderBy string that I pass to Androids query() method looks like this:

"LOWER("+columnName+") ASC"

The problem with this is that if the data type in the column specified by columnName is integer, calling LOWER() on it will cause it to be sorted alphabetically, i.e. based only on the leftmost digit, which of course doesn't make any sense for numeric data. Hence I only want to apply LOWER() if the data type of the column is not integer. What I have in mind is a statement like this:

"CASE WHEN [data type of columnName is integer] THEN "+columnName+" ASC ELSE LOWER("+columName+") ASC END"

The part in the brackets is what I don't know how to do. Does SQLite provide a function to determine a column's data type?

Android :: Insert Data Into A Remote Mysql Database

Nov 24, 2010

We have an android app that currently sends data to a php script which writes to a mysql DB on the same server. We are thinking of using a scalable remote DB e.g. amazon RDS.The question is how does our android app write to these remote DBs? Do they have some kind of rest API, or do we have to send the data to the same php script on our server but use that to post to the remote mysql DB?

Android :: How To Return Non-table-oriented Data From A Content Provider

Mar 27, 2009

I'm writing a content provider that returns data about game sessions. This data comes from an SQLite table. However, the client that consumes it will also want summary data: total wins, current/best winning streak, and so on. I'm not sure which approach to use.

* Possible Approach 1: Do nothing, let the client calculate what it needs.

The client could step through the whole table and calculate statistics itself. However, it's inefficient to send the entire database over the content provider link if the client only wants the summaries; this may also be prone to bugs because each client has to reimplement the summary calculations.

* Possible Approach 2: Separate content URIs for summary data.

The client could ask for a URI like content://myapp/summary/totalwins and get back a text/plain stream containing the number of wins. This seems like a big hassle to implement on both ends, though. Or it could ask for a URI like content://myapp/summary and get back an XML stream containing all the summary data, but this isn't much simpler.

* Possible Approach 3: A phony table.

The client could ask for a URI like content://myapp/summary and get back a cursor over a single row, with each summary value having its own column. This would not be an SQLite cursor but a custom in-memory cursor. It seems a little unnatural to use a table metaphor when there's always exactly one row, though.

* Possible Approach 4: The extras bundle.

Cursor has a getExtras() method that returns a bundle. The client could make a request for the main URI, content://myapp/sessions, and then just look at the extras bundle instead of reading any rows. However, there's no setExtras() method, so I'm stuck with whatever bundle object SQLite puts in there - and if it's Bundle.EMPTY, I'm out of luck.
