I created a data base named as example.db with some tables in SqlLite. It worked fine. It was also created in data/data/com.mypackage.myapp/databases/example.db. Now, I need to open that database and see the content in the database.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have this database file under the usual databases folder and a bunch of tables inside it. Please note that I don't want to retrieve under the command line. I know I can use the ".tables" command. I want to retrieve a list of all tables in it, using code, so that I can execute some specific algorithms on each of them. Also, I didn't find any questions with this problem on Android, so please forgive me if there is any. I was wondering if there is any function I can use under Databases, but I didn't find any either.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm writing an RSS reader for Android. I've faced a certain difficulty which the problem I can't resolve since databases aren't my expertise.. So i figured out maybe one of you could help me out! I currently have 3 tables (Categories, links and feeds). My goal is too link a feed to multiple categories. Therefor I'm using a Link table. My databases is an Android ContentProvider (sqlite) and looks like the following:
| Categories | | Links | | Feeds |
|------------| |---------| |-------|
| _ID | | Category| | _ID |
| Title | | Feed | | Title |
| URL |
I currently wrote the following code in my FeedListActivity to retrieve a list of links and their feeds.
CODE:.................
Now my question:
I was wondering how I could optimize this database layout, code or query so I would get my entries in a more efficient way. Because i believe this link table or the query to retrieve links isn't needed! Or am i doing this the correct way?
I have implemented the search functionality using the android search dialog.to search multiple columns of a table using LIKE query.But search became slow as I have written a query in such a way that every time the text of each field(like the sample fields title,description category etc.) will be searched. title LIKE "---"OR description LIKE ''---"OR.....category LIKE "---"OR location LIKE"---"to. So is there any other way to speed up the functionality..

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 have certain needs that I am having trouble making an app for. I was hoping to be able to create a sqlite database that I can manually input data from my computer and search the data on my droid. I wanted to set up tags or full data search within each sqlite database object so and pull up a listing of best matches for the given search term.
The use for it is that I work on an Air Force Base and my job is very broad. I wanted to custom build an app that I could list all of the information pertaining to my job and be able to search it as I work to find solutions to problems way quicker than we are doing it now.
Is there any such app. I've been trying to create my own and it looks like it would be a mix between notepad and searchable dictionary but not quite.

I'm trying to use Android SDK's SQLiteQueryBuilder to join two tables, let's call them t1 and t2, and query that table based on an attribute from each table, say t1.att1 and t2.att2, equaling a certain value. I'm a little confused on the syntax when it comes to the selection.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to display a single list, ordered by date which contains different types of data, images, video and whatnot.
I guess you could have one separate table for each type and the use something like FULL OUTER JOIN (simulated as sqlite doesn't support it) and sort on date. But this would be complicated because I still need to have unique IDs across all tables.
Maybe having a master list which has ID and date, and then JOIN in the types tables? But how bad is the performance of this using sqlite? I really like to avoid having a super table which contains columns all the combined types could ever need.
I want to operate on multiple tables. I searched a lot but everywhere I could find is single table with one content provider.

I.E. the database of Calendar application, include many tables including Events and Deleted, and some others. I want to retrive records in Events table, whose _sync_id field is also in Deleted table. Usually, we write a SQL sentence like: select (all fields in Events) from Events as e, Deleted as d where e._sync_id = d._sync_id or select * rom Events as e where e._sync_id in select _sync_id from Deleted etc. But, how can I accomplish it in the ContentProvider way?

View 2 Replies View RelatedAnyone 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?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have about twenty pages of information that is stored in tables that needs to be stored in my Android application. Each column is a designated stop on a bus route and the column is filled with times that the bus will be at the stop. There is also certain information that needs to be associated with some times, such as if the bus is handicap accessible at a certain time.
Here is an example of one of the tables: Bus Times
I have thought about using a SQL lite as that seems as though it would be able to store these tables quite easily; but when I think of using SQL I think of dynamic data storage and this shouldn't be changing more than once a year.
Is SQL appropriate for this application? Is there a better way to do this?
I am after a code to get the available column names of a table in Android?
I looked around and didn't find anything.
Now I've done a bit of research into Fusion tables already and I know it's possible for me to put all the data that's going to be in my app into a fusion table and then display the fusion table there for the user to see the data. Much easier to update the data when need be instead of making it static text and having to update the app via the play store every time I need to update the data.
How do I do this though? All I know is that it's possible and that I should use the Fusion table API. More than anything I just need a starting point so I know how to set up Eclipse and then learning the code is up to me.
Any apps at the moment that use Fusion tables to hold their applications data? Would be good to download them and have a play.
I just encountered the following situation. I have an Android app with a scenario which I guess may happen in multiple apps. It's about tagging/labeling/categorizing, call it as you want.After CommonsWare's feedback here a bit of a clarification. I'm weird about doing the second query to the DB inside the CursorAdapter, basically this would result in one query per row and I fear this will heavily impact my performance (I've still to test it on a real device with a substantial amount of data to see how much this impacts).My question therefore is on whether there are some strategies on how to avoid this given my data model or whether I have to basically "live" with that :)
