Android :: Is SQLiteStatement - Prepared Statement - Thread-safe?
Sep 20, 2010
I'm wondering whether prepared statements in Android (instances of SQLiteStatement) are thread-safe. In particular I'm asking with regard to the following scenario:
In a ContentProvider you create a pre-compiled insert statement during onCreate. Then, in the overriden insert method you make use of this statement by binding a set of parameters to it and calling executeInsert on it.
We know that a ContentProvider has to be written in a thread-safe manner. If SQLiteStatement does not bind parameters per thread, a concurrent call to the provider's insert method would alter the statement's bindings and result in unpredictable behavior.
Android's own Contacts provider uses prepared statements in this way (http://bit.ly/bDuKAT), so I tend to believe that they are in fact thread-safe. Looking at the source code of SQLiteStatement I don't see how though (http://bit.ly/9M1Swv).
So, is SQLiteStatement (or SQLiteProgram that is) thread-safe with respect to parameter binding or not?

Let me give you the scenario.
Say that my first Activity that loads up, also creates a thread, which will run indefinitely in the background.
Now, if I move to another Activity, I assume that the thread that I initially created in the main activity will continue to run.
So, now to my main question - in order to manage this background thread from other Activities, is it safe to store a reference to that thread in a singleton object?

Suppose my activity ui-thread spawns a separate thread at some point. Is it safe for that new thread to fire off an Intent for launching a new activity?

I want to see a thread for my own sake and others on what apps people have removed and what is safe.In order to remove an app use these directions.Footprints: (I had to do a Nandroid backup after removing this becauuse maps would not load in navigation) some online have reported the same problem while others here said it worked for them) JUST BE SURE TO MAKE A BACKUP FIRST.Another app to watch for is Friendstream as people have reported problems with constant sync issues.(Also just a question when removing apps do you need to run the same command line ending with .odex?)

How would one know if the SD card has been mounted at startup.
Perhaps some sort of callback/event/message that I can grab that tells me when SD has been mounted/unmounted?
My LWP starts before SD is available, but can check for add-ons that are on the SD card. I need to delay load until after it is ready when there is a dependency.

I am new in Android development, I got a simple question to ask, I know the way how to implement item insert to DB table when there is only one id column and one "name" column in the table, which is code...
But how about there are multiple columns (more than 2 columns) in the table, how to implement the insert function?? For example I have a TABLE (myTable) has the following columns:
"CREATE TABLE myTable (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, date TEXT, time TEXT, cost DOUBLE)"
Now, I want to use SQLiteStatement to insert a item to this table, how to do that?

I am writing an application in which i need to handle messages between the main thread(the deafult UI related thread) and the user created Gamethread.
The requirement is like this.
An activity(say "Activity_X") is setting the view by "setContentView(some "View_Y")". In "Activity_X" i have implemeted "onCreateOptionsMenu()" and "onOptionsItemSelected()" fucntions for creating menus & a switch case for action to be taken on selecting those menus.Menu has items like "resume/pause/zoom/" .
All action to be take on selecting these menus are implemented in "View_Y" in a separate Gamethread by extending "Thread" class.
So whenever a menu is selected in "Activity_X" i need to send a message to "View_Y". And on receiving this ,a particular action/method should be called in View_Y(GameThread).
How can i achieve this using Handlers?Is there any other way of doing this? Please do share with me some code snippets for these.

I have a separate thread running to get data from the internet. After that, I would like to update the ListView in the main thread by calling adapter.notifyDataSetChanged(). But it does not work. Any workaround for that?

I want to do the drawing in another thread to speed up the game(it is way to slow right now). I was told to do this but don't quite understand why that would speed things up. Is it GameView that should implement Runnable? Should I make the thread sleep when not drawing? where should I start the thread? package com.android.WWS;
import android.app.Activity; import android.content.Context; import android.graphics.*; import android.os.Bundle; import android.view.SurfaceView; import android.view.KeyEvent; import android.view.View; import android.view.View.OnKeyListener; import java.lang.Runnable; import java.lang.Thread;...................

I have a strange issue. I am new to java/android but come from a programming background maybe I am just missing or doing something stupid with syntax here. I have a string variable called reportlength
String reportlength;
I then go: reportlength = intent.getExtras().getString("ReportLengt");
Now in my debug console for the variable reportlength it has it set as "d" (that is the correct value it should have)
At this point I have my if statement:

The problem I was having was that one of the TextViews would turn grey when it wasn't supposed to. I tried fixing it by always setting the text to black again, but that turned every single one of them grey.
Until I tried:

Don't know why the latter works when setting text grey, but there it is. I guess I'm just a little retarded.

How can I enable assert statement on Android? I have referred to a url: http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/dalvik.git;a=blob_plain;f=d... and done what it said: adb shell setprop dalvik.vm.enableassertions all but nothing happen! The test code is: Log.v("assert 1","1"); assert false; Log.v("assert 2","2"); No matter what I did, "assert 2" will be printed, which means "assert false" does nothing! What should I do? BTW, I use eclipse as IDE.

I'm developing an application that tracks the user's current position and stores it into a SQLite database. Everything works fine, but now I have the problem when querying the database for a track with more than 1000 records it takes nearly 1.5 minutes. On my Desktop it just takes 1 second. I know it's a query with many subselects but I wasn't able to get the right result another way. In my opinion this belongs to the aggregate functions like avg() and sum().
Here's my query:.................

When creating my SQLite database in Android I set the database locale - db.setLocale(new Locale("cz_CZ")). This is a Czech locale. A SELECT statement works and takes the locale into account, for example:
SELECT * from table WHERE name='sctzy' COLLATE LOCALIZED
But using LIKE will fail: SELECT * from table WHERE name LIKE '%sctzy%' COLLATE LOCALIZED
BTW. There is no java.text.Normalized class in Android. I thought I could make a second column with a normalized text, stripped of special characters, which would be used for searching - but I am missing a class or way how to normalize the String.

I have a central activity that can be launched from two separate classes. I was hoping that in this central activity I could have an IF statement like
if(this.getIntent() == MainMenu.class)
{
// Do something here
}
But obviously that isn't legal so how could I structure an expression to check from what class an intent was started.

Does anyone have a statement released from Google or someone within Google telling the consumers to avoid Task Managers on Android devices.I went into VZW, trying to get an additional battery (usually if u complain they send u an additional battery) because I'm getting 5-7 hours out of my battery even when I'm careful and try to stretch my battery. So the women asked questions, do u use Wifi...NEVER, don't even turn it on. Brightness? It's 1/8th of the way on to full brightness, Task manager?No Google said not to use one..So she wouldn't send me a battery because she said that its because I don't use a task manager.I was telling her Google had advised us not to and she said, that's false that Google has approved them to put task managers on people's phones who are having battery problems.(I don't believe that)I looked around Google and could only find it from joe-shomes but couldn't find a statement from Google. Can anyone provide a statement from Google that advises us not to use task managers?

I cannot figure out why I can't get this method to enter the if statement.
CODE:.........
Note that the log and debug mode shows that "start = 0"
I also tried
if (start == 0l) {
if (start == 0L) {
What the heck am I missing here? Does 0 != 0?
I'm developing in Eclipse with Java for Android. Thanks.
@methodin - no sorry, that does not work.
@Aioobe - I have a breakpoint under the IF statement, that never gets made.
Here is the actual code I'm running since you've asked.

Anyone working with big sqlite tables and trying to match rows using patterns (for example for autocomplete purposes) ? recently i played with LIKE statement and it seems it will never use table index (if any), you have to use GLOB instead. but....... the weird thing is that you cannot use selectionParams in your query: you have to specify your pattern in selection like:
CODE:........
My words table has two TEXT columns: 'key' and 'value' and index on 'key'
For example: i have table with ~28000 rows and when using selectionParams my query took 1500 ms and without selectionParams 20 ms does it have anything to do with android or its sqlite weird feature?
