Android :: Saving An ArrayList (String) State In SQLite Database
Jul 9, 2010
I'm working on a android application that will display Strings to the user, and the user then has the option to add one to a favorite list. I have searched and searched and cannot find the proper way of doing this. I did get one open source project, everything worked until the user removed a favorite. The database would clear the row of data, but when a new row is added, it would behave as if the deleted row still had data, leaving blanks in the favorite list.
This is my insert method
public long insertString(String newString)
ContentValues newStringValue = new ContentValues();
newStringValue.put(KEY_STRING, newString);
return db.insert(DATABASE_TABLE, null, newStringValue);
The long returned will always increment even if i use the remove method:
public boolean removeString(long _rowIndex)
return db.delete(DATABASE_TABLE, KEY_ID + "=" + _rowIndex, null) > 0;
If I try to remove the third index, and the user removed a question at the third index, the method returns false, is there a way to completely remove all rows with no data?

I've been working with SQLite on android and I would like to add an arraylist to a column in a table, and then fetch the data back as an arraylist. The arraylist is a list of Longs. I've noticed that SQL has an option for storing BLOBS, however, it looks like I need to convert the array list to a byte[] first before being able to store it as a blob in my SQLite database. Is there any other option for saving my array of data, I should consider?

I have a member variable in my Activity which is an ArrayList. The objects populating this Array List are objects I have defined called Rating Item. Rating Item has several member vars like rating, comment, ID, etc. I would like to save this Array List in onSaveInstanceState so it can be repopulated from onRestoreInstanceState. What is the best way to do this? I've never saved the state of an object of this complexity.

I have array list of geopoints
List<GeoPoint> geoPointsArray = new ArrayList<GeoPoint>();
I want to put geoPointsArray array in to SQLite database and then fetch the data back as an array.
Now I use ContentValues for insert into array as:
ContentValues initialValues = new ContentValues();
initialValues.put(KEY_TIME, time);
db.insert(tableName, null, initialValues);

I am trying to inject a long text entry into a SQLite database, in a TEXT field. This text has new lines in it (i.e. it spans multiple paragraphs). I can get the new lines to show up if I do the INSERT manually:
INSERT INTO "LOGENTRY" VALUES(5,40,'PLACE','line1
line2
line4
',1283990533315,'4A','TEXT','',NULL);
but if I have the equivalent text in a CSV file and attempt to .import it into the table, I get an error that it's expecting more columns than exist (as soon as the new line is encountered, the program assumes it's the end of the input and thus it's missing columns). Is this possible? Or is the only way to manually do each INSERT?

I am working on an application where I am saving the state of an application in an ArrayList. Now, to save this state, I tried to use Serialization. But, somewhere in the user defined object, I am using Button, which is not letting me serialize the entire object. I wanted to know, is there any other way of saving this array list between onPause and onResume? I even tried onSaveInstanceState, but it doesn't have support for Array List.

I'm not very clear about the Intent object and how to use it to pass data between Activities. In my application I have several tabs between which I want to pass ArrayList. Here is a sample code I plan to use, but I'm missing the part where the main activity catches the Intent and passes it to the new activity on start :
1. myTabs.java ==> This is where I think I need to add some code to pass the data between TabOne and TabTwo. For now it is just using the sample code of the TabActivity sample.
CODE:...........
2. TabOne.java ==> I added a piece of code in the onStop procedure to fill in the Intent data with the array I want to pass to TabTwo. Not sure it is the right way to do though.
CODE:...................

I am trying to save an arraylist to a .txt file below is the code I am using, which runs without error but when I try to go to Astro file manager and browse the data folder there is nothing there.
String filename = stationname.getText().toString() + System.currentTimeMillis();
FileOutputStream fos = openFileOutput(filename,Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
ObjectOutputStream out = new ObjectOutputStream(fos);
out.writeObject(report);
Report is the ArrayList that holds each of my station Reports.
out.close();

I'm writing a game using Surfaceview and have a question relating to saving Data into a Bundle.
Initially, I had an arraylist which stored the Y co-ordinates (in the form of Integers) of sprites that will move only up and down. Declared as:
Quote:
static ArrayList<Integer> ycoordinates = new ArrayList<Integer>();
I saved them to a Bundle using the following:
Quote:
myBundle.putIntegerArrayList("myycoordinates", ycoordinates);
And restored them using this:
Quote:
ycoordinates.addAll(savedState.getIntegerArrayList ("ycoordinates"));
This all worked perfectly. However, I've had to change the whole coordinates system so it's based on Delta time to allow my sprites to move at a uniform speed across different screens. This is, again, working perfectly.
However, as a result of this change, I now have to store these values as floats rather than integers.
So, I am declaring as:
Quote:
static ArrayList<Float> ycoordinates = new ArrayList<Float>();
So that's the background, now my question is, how do I store and restore values from a Float Arraylist? There doesn't seem to be a "putFloatArrayList" or "getFloatArrayList".
(I've used an Arraylist rather than an Array as the number of sprites needs to be dynamic).

I am in the mid of my application where i have used multidimensional String array
String 1= "A", "10", "XYZ";
String 2 = "B", "20", "PQR";
i am able to split values by using StringTokenizer i.e.
stringTokeniser 1= A
stringTokeniser 2= B
stringTokeniser 1= 10
stringTokeniser 2= 20
stringTokeniser 1= XYZ
stringTokeniser 2= PQR
Now i want to display those values i.e. A, B in one column
10,20 in second and XYZ, PQR in third column respectively.

I understand how to save an application's state by using SharedPreferences, onSavedInstanceState() & onRestoreInstanceState(), etc as outlined in a similar post ( http://stackoverflow.com/questions/151777/how-do-i-save-an-android-applications-state ), but how do I save the last activity?
To be more specific, my application starts up and goes to a login screen. Once a user logs in and navigates through several activities, lets say he or she leaves the app using the home button or in some other way. Next time the user starts the app, it will go back to the login screen and do a login again. Instead, I want the app to start up and go to the last activity that was on top of the stack when the user left the app in the previous session.
How is the last activity saved so that it can be restored on app startup?

I have searched through this and a few other sites for the answer, but I have been unable to find it. I am trying to save a boolean and an int using onSaveInstanceState and onRestoreInstanceState, but I can't seem to get it to work. It doesn't crash or anything, but it either isn't saving it or it isn't restoring it, or I am stupid and have no idea what I am doing.
Here is what I have for my activity, do I need to have it in my onCreate somewhere or something?
CODE:..............
I tried putting stuff in the onStop, but it crashes, which is why its empty, in case that matters, thanks in advance

I'm saving the state of my activities for orientation change support, it works well. Sometimes I have a dialog open though and need to save its state as well. My dialog's onStop() method doesn't seem to get called when I change orientation. Where would get notified inside the Dialog that we're being destroyed, so I can save its state?

I've got an android app that pulls a random 20 questions (rows) as a cursor from a SQLite DB and loops through all the questions to ask the user all 20 questions.
Is there some way to save the cursor's state/location when the activity is paused or stopped so that when the activity resumes the cursor is restored and in the same position as it was when the activity was paused/stopped?

I'm currently developing a Field-Service application that stores data in the local sqlite database on an android device. At some point, usually after completing the data collection rounds, the local sqlite db is to be synchronized to a remote sybase db on the server.Any suggestions as to how this could be achieved or engineered as a solution? Or even better, are there alternatives to synchronizing data in such an application?

I have a query that pulls everything from a database into a list view.
code:..........
I want only the records where the field KEY_HOMEID matches a variable called journalId which should be a numeric string.
I would also like to know how to bring the variable into my DatabaseAdapter... would ((resource)this.getApplication()).getjournalId()) work? resource is a class that extends application.

I have an Activity with a list that is bound to a ListAdapter reading data into a ArrayList from a database. All is well when the data is first loaded. While the Activity is open and the list is being displayed it is possible and likely that the data in the database will be updated by a service but the list does not reflect the changes because the ArrayList does not know about the changes. If the Activity is no longer in the foreground as would be the case if the user goes to the home screen and then is brought back to the foreground I would like for the Activity to not display what it did prior but rather reload the data using the ListAdapter the view is bound to. I think something needs to call finish() but I am not sure what.
This is what I have in the Activity.

I'm new to Android, I just finished the Notepad Tutorials, where we can create SQLite Databases to save notes. So I wanted to know if it was possible to "import" my own SQLite database (not created with my App but with a 3rd-party software) to my project, and if the answer is yes, where should I save my SQLite databse and how can I have access to it.

I'm doing a application that will use a database with serialized object. The objects will be already serialized and the user will just display things. On a PC I would just make an XML but with android I'm not sure. Can I make an XML and "unpack" it when the user launch the application for the first time or should I do something else?

I put my database field in "assets" folder. And use the code from this blog to copy the database to "/data/data/my_packname/databases/", (This copy code i run it in the onCreate() method when i run this app) then use select * from ... to get data. But it gives me the exception: no such table. Someone told me that if i am attempting to copy the file in SQLiteOpenHelper's onCreate(), it's too late. So the copy file code can not copy the complete file. So i need to use adb or ddms to pull the database first? So, Anyone can teach me how to use my own databse?

public void delete(String id, String name, String phonenumber, String time, String message)
{
String[] args={id};
getWritableDatabase().delete("texts", "_ID=?", args);
}
It works fine, and deletes the specified row. However, I also want to implement it so that I can delete the most recent (earliest date) entry in the database, which should be at the top of the table. I know I can do this by altering the last 2 parameters of delete, but I cannot figure out what to change them to.
