I want to create a database using the Android SDK's SQlite tool. What would the file extension have to be? I would think .db or .sqlite3 or .SQlite? How would I import it in my source code (Is there a method I should call?) and where in my source code? I was thinking in the onCreate method of a class that implements SQliteOpenHelper.

Or even better, are there alternatives to synchronizing data in such an application?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI 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.

View 6 Replies View RelatedIs it really necessary to close an SQLite database that your activity has opened (database is in local memory or on SD card)? I would think it would be good practice, but I noticed that the Android samples such as the Notepad tutorial and SearchableDictionary sample do not do this. I've also seen sample code where the database is consistently opened, read from, and closed, but that would seem to add unnecessary overhead.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to parse a fairly large XML file (varying between about a hundred kilobytes and several hundred kilobytes), which I'm doing using Xml#parse(String, ContentHandler). I'm currently testing this with a 152KB file.During parsing, I also insert the data in an SQLite database using calls similar to the following: getWritableDatabase().insert(TABLE_NAME, "_id", values). All of this together takes about 80 seconds for the 152KB test file (which comes down to inserting roughly 200 rows).When I comment out all insert statements (but leave in everything else, such as creating ContentValues etc.) the same file takes only 23 seconds.Is it normal for the database operations to have such a big overhead? Can I do anything about that?

Doing some testing just before that line of code (using File.isExists) shows that the file /data/data/edwin11.myapp/databases/myapp.db does not exist. Would that be the cause of the error? (Or am I just using SQLiteDatabase.openDatabase the wrong way?) Would it help if I create the file beforehand? (Shouldn't that be taken care of by the SQLiteDatabase.CREATE_IF_NECESSARY flag that I passed in?) If creating the file manually is the way to go, is it just an empty file, or do I have to write something to it?
I'm in the middle of writing myself an app and have run into a problem concerning the use of the same SQLite database within multiple activities.
I have one activity that is used to input and store data and multiple activities that need to then read that data. Within the first activity, it has no problem inputting the data into the database, but when I go to have the other activity read the data, it tells me the database is empty. Obviously I'm doing something wrong in my handling of this shared database.
Right now, I have a DataHelper class that handles everything. In each activity, I create a DataHelper object which then calls the openOrCreateDatabase() method. I then close the database upon exiting the activity. Obviously this isn't the right way to do it.
So, my questions is, what is the correct way to set up an SQLite database in an Android application and then access it in multiple activities?
I'm attempting to make a dynamic drop down that will be filled by a SQLite table. I have a Cursor object which I can pull the data I need from. I've been able to accomplish loading the values into the drop down with the code below:
CODE:..............
My problem is that I need the a selection from the drop down to also contain the RowID of the item selected. I need to be able to select one item and have access to the value of that item in the back end. For example, think of a drop down in HTML. Each drop down selection has it's own hidden value that is pulled. I need this value to be hidden for me to allow me to know which ID they choose.
