I am trying to create a simple SQLite database in android. I am following this tutorial. But the code gives this error "Cannot resolve constructor Contact()". Below is the code for DatabaseHandler.java. I have pointed out the line where the error occurs so it's easy to understand.

Create empty constructor.

This is my database helper and I'm trying to fetch the table in logcat but I don't know how to do that. I know the code is Select * from <tablename> but how do i implement that. I want to see all the data in my table.
Soltion:
Please follow the following steps:
First Step:
Make the below method in DatabaseHelper class:
public List<FavouritesHelper> getAllData() {
List<FavouritesHelper> data = new ArrayList<>();
// Select All Query
String selectQuery = "SELECT * FROM " + FavouritesHelper.TABLE_NAME;
SQLiteDatabase db = this.getWritableDatabase();
Cursor cursor = db.rawQuery(selectQuery, null);
// looping through all rows and adding to list
if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
do {
FavouritesHelper alldata = new FavouritesHelper();
alldata.setName(cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(FavouritesHelper.Name)));
alldata.setPhoneNumber(cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(FavouritesHelper.PhoneNumber)));
alldata.setFavourites(cursor.getBoolean(cursor.getColumnIndex(FavouritesHelper.Favourites)));
data.add(alldata);
} while (cursor.moveToNext());
}
// close db connection
db.close();
// return notes list
return data;
}
Second Step:
In your activity:
declare a global object: List<FavouritesHelper> AllData inside your class.
Third Step:
then, add this AllData = new List<FavouritesHelper>(); in your onCreate()
Fourth Step:
write this in your activity after inserting data: AllData = database.getAllData();
Fifth Step:
Print it in log using below statement:
for(FavouritesHelper helper : AllData) {
Log.e("values : ", helper.getName() + ", " + helper.getPhoneNumber() + ", " + helper.getFavourites());
}
That's it.
Try it out. Hope it Helps.
As #pskink suggested you can use dumpCursor like this
create this method inside your DatabaseHelper class
public void dumpCursorInLogCat() {
//here first getting the readable database
SQLiteDatabase db = this.getReadableDatabase();
Cursor cursor = db.rawQuery(Show_Table, null);
//here is how you can Dump cursor
DatabaseUtils.dumpCursor(cursor);
cursor.close();
}
and call this method in your activity whenever you want to show data in logcat
call it inside your activity like
new DatabaseHelper(your_activity_name.this).dumpCursorInLogCat();

In the log file the database is created and data is inserted. but the login code is giving false in the log console even if the username and password is correct.
I am trying to read data from SQLite in android using three parameters, id, name and date. For example, id="number" and name="something" and date between ("first date", "second date"). the problem is that, i cannot figure out what to do with the last function. There are two more parameters left and i dont know what to do or where to place it. So does anyone have any experience and familiar with this code style and can share or help me? (I take this code from book too and there was not any solution for related to this at all in the book.)
//Table person; It contain the same attribute as Person class
public static final class PersonTable
{
public static final String NAME = "Persons";
public static final class Cols
{
static final String ID = "id";
static final String NAME = "name";
static final String DATE = "date";
}
}
public class PersonCursorWrapper extends CursorWrapper
{
public PersonCursorWrapper(Cursor cursor)
{
super(cursor);
}
public Person getPerson()
{
int id = geIntI(getColumnIndex(PersonTable.Cols.ID));
String name = getString(getColumnIndex(PersonTable.Cols.NAME));
long date = getLong(getColumnIndex(PersonTable.Cols.DATE));
Person Person = new Person();
Person.id(id);
Person.setDate(new Date(date));
Person.setName(name);
return Person;
}
}
}
private PersonCursorWrapper queryPersons(String whereClause, String[] whereArgs)
{
Cursor cursor = mDatabase.query
(
PersonTable.NAME,
null,
whereClause,
whereArgs,
null,
null,
null
);
return new PersonCursorWrapper(cursor);
}
public Person getPerson(int id, String name, String date)
{
PersonCursorWrapper cursor = queryPersons(
PersonTable.Cols.ID + " = ?"+" "+
PersonTable.Cols.NAME + " = ?"+" "+
PersonTable.Cols.DATE + " = ?",
new String[] { id.toString() }
);
try
{
if (cursor.getCount() == 0)
{
return null;
}
cursor.moveToFirst();
return cursor.getPerson();
}
finally
{
cursor.close();
}
}
You have three parameter markers (?), so you have to give it three parameters:
cursor = queryPersons(
...,
new String[] { id.toString(), name, date }
);
For android sqlite database operations you can simply use SQLiteOpenHelper class provided with android.
This is a complete implementation for your case with SQLiteOpenHelper.

I have created a database in DB.java following various tutorials.
They have methods to get data and insert into the database using SQLite.
My questions are
1) How do I get DB.java to instantiate, as you see i have insertStudent("hello", "male", 4, "password", "computing", "module"); just for a bit of test data, I want to know what I would do with this in order for it to insert, I know I haven't called DB.java anywhere for it to do that, but I am unsure which way to go about it.
2) Once it has created the database, I want it to display the data from the database on the main activity. I decided to make the getData method static, then I called it in my main activity by using DB.getData(db); however it's stating db cannot be resolved to a variable. So i've messed up somewhere.
Any guidance is appreciated.
Below is my DB.java
package com.example.project;
import com.example.project.tableStudents.tableColumns;
import android.content.ContentValues;
import android.content.Context;
import android.database.Cursor;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase.CursorFactory;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteOpenHelper;
import android.util.Log;
public class DB extends SQLiteOpenHelper {
public static final int db_version = 1;
public static final String Table = "Students";
public static final String Student_ID = "Student_ID";
public static final String Student_Name = "Student_Name";
public static final String Student_Password = "Student_Password";
public static final String Student_Gender = "gender";
public static final String Student_Age = "age";
public static final String Student_Course = "course";
public static final String Student_Modules = "modules";
public DB(Context context) {
super(context, tableColumns.Database, null, db_version);
// Insert Students
insertStudent("hello", "male", 4, "password", "computing", "module");
}
#Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
//Create Table
db.execSQL("CREATE TABLE " + Table + "(" +
Student_ID + " INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, " +
Student_Name + " TEXT, " +
Student_Password + " TEXT, " +
Student_Gender + " TEXT, " +
Student_Age + " INTEGER, " +
Student_Course + " TEXT, " +
Student_Modules + "TEXT)"
);
Log.d("DB", "DB Created");
}
#Override
public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {
db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS " + Table);
onCreate(db);
}
public static Cursor getData(DB db)
{
SQLiteDatabase SQ = db.getReadableDatabase();
String[] columns ={tableColumns.Student_ID, tableColumns.Student_Password};
Cursor cursor = SQ.query(tableColumns.Table, columns, null, null, null, null, null);
return cursor;
}
public boolean insertStudent(String name, String gender, int age, String password, String course, String modules) {
SQLiteDatabase db = getWritableDatabase();
ContentValues contentValues = new ContentValues();
contentValues.put(Student_Name, name);
contentValues.put(Student_Password, password);
contentValues.put(Student_Gender, gender);
contentValues.put(Student_Age, age);
contentValues.put(Student_Course, course);
contentValues.put(Student_Modules, modules);
db.insert(Table, null, contentValues);
//Log for admin insert
//Log.d("DB", "Inserted Successfully");
return true;
}
}
And my tableStudents.java for controlling the students table
package com.example.project;
import android.provider.BaseColumns;
public class tableStudents {
//Constructor
public tableStudents()
{
}
public static abstract class tableColumns implements BaseColumns
{
public static final String Student_ID= "Student_ID";
public static final String Student_Password = "Student_Password";
public static final String Student_Gender = "gender";
public static final String Student_Age = "age";
public static final String Student_Course = "course";
public static final String Student_Modules = "modules";
public static final String Database = "databasename";
public static final String Table = "tablename";
}
}
1) To instantiate and insert data -
In your main activity
DB db = new DB(this);
db.insertStudent(name, gender, age, password, course, modules);
2) For convenience, consider
Student.java
public class Student{
public String name, gender, password, course, modules;
public int age;
Student(){ //constructor
}
Student(String name, String gender, int age, String password, String course, String modules){ //constructor
this.name = name;
this.gender = gender;
this.age = age;
this.password = password;
this.course = course;
this.modules = modules;
}
}
Now modify your getData function in DB.java to this -
public List<Student> getData() {
List<Student> studentList = new ArrayList<Student>();
// Select All Query
String selectQuery = "SELECT * FROM " + Table;
SQLiteDatabase db = this.getWritableDatabase();
Cursor cursor = db.rawQuery(selectQuery, null);
// looping through all rows and adding to list
if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
do {
Student student = new Student();
student.name = cursor.getString(0);
student.gender = cursor.getString(1);
student.age = Integer.parseInt(cursor.getString(2));
student.password = cursor.getString(3);
student.course = cursor.getString(4);
student.modules = cursor.getString(5);
studentList.add(student);
} while (cursor.moveToNext());
}
// return contact list
return studentList;
}
In my code, the user supposed to add details of a product including name, image, category and other details. But after entering the data and saving it, it cannot view the data that they input. Instead it shows: unable to convert BLOB to String.
My coding for adding data.
items Item= new items();
db.getWritableDatabase();
ByteArrayOutputStream stream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
byte imageInByte[] = stream.toByteArray();
Bitmap bMap= BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(imageInByte, 0, imageInByte.length);
ivThumbnailPhoto.setImageBitmap(bMap);
Item.setName(name.getText().toString());
Item.setCategory(SpCate.getSelectedItem().toString());
Item.setDetails(details.getText().toString());
Item.setImage(imageInByte);
db.addItemSpinner(new items());
// Save the Data in Database
MyDb entry= new MyDb(SellingItem.this);
entry.getWritableDatabase();
entry.addItemSpinner(Item);
entry.close();
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Account Successfully Created ", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
Log.d("name", Item.getName());
Log.d("category", Item.getCategory());
Log.d("detailsL", Item.getDetails());
Intent i=new Intent(SellingItem.this,SearchItem.class);
startActivity(i);
My Database to input data.
public void addItemSpinner(items i) {
SQLiteDatabase db = this.getWritableDatabase();
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(COLUMN_NAME, i.name); // Contact Name
values.put(COLUMN_IMAGE, i.image); // Contact Phone
values.put(COLUMN_CATE, i.category); // Contact Name
values.put(COLUMN_DETAILS, i.details); // Contact Phone
// Inserting Row
db.insert(TABLE_NAME, null, values);
db.close(); // Closing database connection
}
logcat shows this.

And this is what my DB looks like
public static final String TAG = "MyDb";
public static final String TABLE_NAME="PRODUCT";
public static final String COLUMN_ID="id";
public static final String COLUMN_NAME="name";
public static final String COLUMN_CATE="category";
public static final String COLUMN_IMAGE="image";
public static final String COLUMN_DETAILS="details";
private static final String DATABASE_NAME="Spinner";
private static final int DATABASE_VERSION= 1;
private static final String SQL_CREATE_ITEM = "CREATE TABLE " + TABLE_NAME + "("
+ COLUMN_ID + " INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, "
+ COLUMN_NAME + " TEXT NOT NULL, "
+ COLUMN_CATE + " TEXT NOT NULL, "
+ COLUMN_IMAGE + " BLOB, "
+ COLUMN_DETAILS + " TEXT NOT NULL "
+")";
Use the following code
java.sql.Blob ablob = rs.getBlob(1);
String str = new String(ablob.getBytes(1l, (int) ablob.length()));
or
Try this (a2 is BLOB col)
PreparedStatement ps1 = conn.prepareStatement("update t1 set a2=? where id=1");
Blob blob = conn.createBlob();
blob.setBytes(1, str.getBytes());
ps1.setBlob(1, blob);
ps1.executeUpdate();
It may work even without BLOB, driver will transform types automatically:
ps1.setBytes(1, str.getBytes);
ps1.setString(1, str);
Besides if you work with text CLOB seems to be a more natural col type.
