How to search value in Sqlite database?

I'm developing an app which is used for contacts and for this i used sqlite database to store name and number so i want to filter name and number for searching for which
i tried that query but
it's not working for me
any solution for problem i used like and "=" both?
public boolean onQueryTextChange(String newText) {
try {
final String temp = newText.toLowerCase();
final ArrayList<Map> map1 = new ArrayList();
try {
dbhelper =new FeedReaderDbHelper(getActivity());
SQLiteDatabase db=dbhelper.getReadableDatabase();
String projection[]={FeedReaderContract.FeedEntry.COLUMNS_TITLE,FeedReaderContract.FeedEntry.COLUMN_SUB_TITLE};
Cursor cursor =db.query(FeedReaderContract.FeedEntry.TABLE_NAME,projection ,FeedReaderContract.FeedEntry.COLUMNS_TITLE+"= ?",new String[]{newText},null,null,null);
while(cursor.moveToFirst()){
String name = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(FeedReaderContract.FeedEntry.COLUMNS_TITLE));
String number = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(FeedReaderContract.FeedEntry.COLUMN_SUB_TITLE));
Map<String, Object> map = new HashMap();
map.put(name, number);
if (name.toLowerCase().contains(temp)) {
map1.add(map);
Phone.this.adapter.Filter(map1);
}
} }
catch(Exception e){
System.out.print(Retriving_list);
}
}catch(Exception e){
Toast.makeText(getActivity(), First_Retrive_Data, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
//DbHelperClass
public class FeedReaderDbHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper{
public static final int DB_VERSION =1;
public static String getDataBASE_NAME() {
return DataBASE_NAME;
}
public static void setDataBASE_NAME(String dataBASE_NAME) {
DataBASE_NAME = dataBASE_NAME;
}
public static String DataBASE_NAME;
Context context;
private static final String SQL_CREATE_ENTRIES =
"CREATE TABLE " + FeedReaderContract.FeedEntry.TABLE_NAME + "(" +
FeedReaderContract.FeedEntry._ID + "INTEGER PRIMARY KEY," +
FeedReaderContract.FeedEntry.COLUMNS_TITLE + " TEXT ," +
FeedReaderContract.FeedEntry.COLUMN_SUB_TITLE + " TEXT UNIQUE)";
private static final String SQL_DELETE_ENTRIES =
"DROP TABLE IF EXISTS " + FeedReaderContract.FeedEntry.TABLE_NAME;
public FeedReaderDbHelper(Context context) {
super(context, FeedReaderDbHelper.getDataBASE_NAME(), null, DB_VERSION);
this.context=context;
}
#Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase sqLiteDatabase) {
sqLiteDatabase.execSQL(SQL_CREATE_ENTRIES);
}
void addContactValues(FeedReaderDbHelper dbhelper ,String name ,String number){
SQLiteDatabase db= dbhelper.getWritableDatabase();
ContentValues values =new ContentValues();
values.put(FeedReaderContract.FeedEntry.COLUMNS_TITLE ,name);
values.put(FeedReaderContract.FeedEntry.COLUMN_SUB_TITLE,number);
long rows= db.insertWithOnConflict(FeedReaderContract.FeedEntry.TABLE_NAME,null,values,SQLiteDatabase.CONFLICT_IGNORE);
if (rows==-1){
// Toast.makeText(context, String.valueOf(rows)+"not interested", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
else{
Toast.makeText(context, String.valueOf(rows)+"inserted", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
#Override
public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase sqLiteDatabase, int i, int i1) {
sqLiteDatabase.execSQL(SQL_DELETE_ENTRIES);
onCreate(sqLiteDatabase);
}
}

It's not clear what exact do you want, but if you want do get only rows with given values, it should looks like this:
String mSearchString = "what do you want to search";
String selection = setupSelectionString();
cursor = database.query(NoteContract.NoteEntry.NOTES_TABLE_NAME, projection, selection, selectionArgs,
null, null, sortOrder);
private String setupSelectionString() {
String selection = null;
if (mSearchString != null) {
selection = FeedReaderContract.FeedEntry.COLUMNS_TITLE + " LIKE '%"
+ mSearchString + "%'"
+ " OR " + FeedReaderContract.FeedEntry.COLUMN_SUB_TITLE + " LIKE '%"
+ mSearchString + "%'";
}
return selection;
It works in my app

How do I use SQLite in android?

I've founde already a few answers to this topic (for example this), but it is not working. I only get the warning, that it cannot resolve the method 'openOrCreateDatabase(java.lang.String, int, null)'.
Here is my sourcecode:
public class DBHandler
{
SQLiteDatabase database;
DBHandler()
{
database = openOrCreateDatabase("DatabaseName", Context.MODE_PRIVATE, null);
}
}

SQLite is a opensource SQL database that stores data to a text file on a device. Android comes in with built in SQLite database implementation.

Structure
public class MySQLiteHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper {
public static final String TABLE_COMMENTS = "comments";
public static final String COLUMN_ID = "_id";
public static final String COLUMN_COMMENT = "comment";
private static final String DATABASE_NAME = "commments.db";
private static final int DATABASE_VERSION = 1;
// Database creation sql statement
private static final String DATABASE_CREATE = "create table "
+ TABLE_COMMENTS + "(" + COLUMN_ID
+ " integer primary key autoincrement, " + COLUMN_COMMENT
+ " text not null);";
public MySQLiteHelper(Context context) {
super(context, DATABASE_NAME, null, DATABASE_VERSION);
}
#Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase database) {
database.execSQL(DATABASE_CREATE);
}
#Override
public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {
Log.w(MySQLiteHelper.class.getName(),
"Upgrading database from version " + oldVersion + " to "
+ newVersion + ", which will destroy all old data");
db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS " + TABLE_COMMENTS);
onCreate(db);
}
}

As the commenter has given you the example, you will need to create a subclass of SQLiteOpenHelper class and override the onCreate and onUpgrade methods which will create your database and tables. Then you can use the method getReadableDatabase( ) or getWritableDatabase() of this helper class to get copy of a SQLite database. You can execute the queries on this object.
The code snippet below demonstrates it.
public class DBAdapter {
private SQLiteDatabase database;
private Context context;
private DatabaseHelper dbHelper;
private class DatabaseHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper {
public DatabaseHelper(Context context, String name, SQLiteDatabase.CursorFactory factory, int version) {
super(context, name, factory, version);
}
#Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
db.execSQL(CREATE_TABLES_QUERY);
}
#Override
public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {
db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXIST "+TABLE_QUERY);
}
}
public DBAdapter(Context ctx) {
this.context = ctx;
}
public DBAdapter open() throws SQLException {
dbHelper = new DatabaseHelper(context, DBNAME, null,DBVERSION);
database = dbHelper.getWritableDatabase();
return this;
}
public Cursor executeQuery() {
Cursor result = database.rawQuery(YOUR_QUERY, null);
return result;
}
}

Android Sqlite java.lang.nullpointer exception

I am using SQLite in Android eclipse, however it gives me a java.lang.nullpointerexception in the function createEntry. I tried using Questoid SQLite manager to view the database file and it does show up with the table created. Where's the bug?
public class Transact {
public static final String KEY_ROWID = "_id";
public static final String KEY_TAG = "saved_tag";
private static final String DATABASE_NAME = "MyDatabaseName";
private static final String DATABASE_TABLE = "tagsTable";
private static final int DATABASE_VERSION = 1;
private DbHelper ourHelper;
private final Context ourContext;
private SQLiteDatabase ourDatabase;
private static class DbHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper{
public DbHelper(Context context){
super(context, DATABASE_NAME, null, DATABASE_VERSION);
}
#Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
db.execSQL(
"CREATE TABLE " + DATABASE_TABLE + " (" + KEY_ROWID + " INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, " + KEY_TAG + " TEXT NOT NULL);"
);
}
#Override
public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS " + DATABASE_TABLE);
onCreate(db);
}
}
public Transact(Context c ){
ourContext = c;
}
public Transact open() throws SQLException{
ourHelper = new DbHelper(ourContext);
ourHelper.getWritableDatabase();
return this;
}
public void close(){
ourHelper.close();
}
public long createEntry(String tagword) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
ContentValues cv = new ContentValues();
cv.put(KEY_TAG, tagword);
return ourDatabase.insert(DATABASE_TABLE, "", cv);
}
public String getData() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
String[] columns = new String[]{KEY_ROWID, KEY_TAG};
Cursor c = ourDatabase.query(DATABASE_TABLE, columns, null, null, null, null, null);
String result = "";
int iRow = c.getColumnIndex(KEY_ROWID);
int iTag = c.getColumnIndex(KEY_TAG);
for(c.moveToFirst();!c.isAfterLast();c.moveToNext()){
result = result + c.getString(iRow) + " " + c.getString(iTag) + "\n";
}
return null;
}
}
Code for the add button from Main.java class:
case R.id.addDB:
boolean doneAdd = true;
try{
String tag = textTag.getText().toString();
Transact entry = new Transact(Main.this);
entry.open();
entry.createEntry(tag);
entry.close();
}catch(Exception e){
String error = e.toString();
Dialog d = new Dialog(this);
d.setTitle("Error");
TextView tv = new TextView(this);
tv.setText(error);
d.setContentView(tv);
d.show();
doneAdd = false;
}finally{
if(doneAdd){
Dialog d = new Dialog(this);
d.setTitle("Addition done");
TextView tv = new TextView(this);
tv.setText("Success");
d.setContentView(tv);
d.show();
}
}
break;

You are using ourDatabase variable without initializing it. So not only insert you will get nullpointerexception everywhere where you are using ourDatabase variable
you can use something like following in constructor.
SQLiteDatabase db = context.openOrCreateDatabase(DATABASE_NAME,
Context.MODE_PRIVATE, null);

cursor.getstring() is getting the wrong field in the database

So this is my code:
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> listView, View view, int position, long id)
{
Cursor cursor = (Cursor) listView.getItemAtPosition(position);
int _id = cursor.getInt(0);
String _recipe = cursor.getString(1);
Intent intent = new Intent(Luzon1Activity.this,RecipeInstruction.class);
intent.putExtra("id", _id);
intent.putExtra("recipe", _recipe);
startActivity(intent);
}
This is my code for the next activity:
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.recipeinstruction);
dbHelper = new Dbadapter(this);
dbHelper.open();
bg = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.relativeLayout1);
Bundle extras = getIntent().getExtras();
if (extras != null) {
id = extras.getInt("id");
recipe = extras.getString("recipe");
}
Toast.makeText(this, id+"\n"+recipe, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
bg.setBackgroundResource(getImageId(this, recipe));
}
My problem is on this part: String _recipe = cursor.getString(1).
It always gives me the wrong data. I tried to change the number but still it gives me the wrong data.
This is my database:
package com.pinoycookbook;
import android.content.ContentValues;

}

return this;

if (mDbHelper != null) {

}
}

return mDb.insert(SQLITE_TABLE, null, initialValues);
}

return doneDelete > 0;
}
public void insertData() {

}
}

So i recommend you to use getColumnIndex() method rather than hardcode it.
String _recipe = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(Dbadapter.RECIPE));
It will ensure that you will get always right field. And if it still get wrong data problem is in query not in Cursor
Note: An usage of static fields that hold column names is always the best practise.
Update:
I've tried it before and it gives me this error:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: column 'recipe' does not exist
You need to find out your actual table structure. Try to perform this statement:
PRAGMA table_info(Dbadapter.SQLITE_TABLE);
What says docs(source):
This pragma returns one row for each column in the named table.
Columns in the result set include the column name, data type, whether
or not the column can be NULL, and the default value for the column.
The "pk" column in the result set is zero for columns that are not
part of the primary key, and is the index of the column in the primary
key for columns that are part of the primary key.
Example:
Here i created for you method for getting tableinfo via PRAGMA:
public String getTableInfo() {
StringBuilder b = new StringBuilder("");
Cursor c = null;
try {
db = helper.getReadableDatabase();
String query = "pragma table_info(" + Dbadapter.SQLITE_TABLE + ")";
c = db.rawQuery(query, null);
if (c.moveToFirst()) {
do {
b.append("Col:" + c.getString(c.getColumnIndex("name")) + " ");
b.append(c.getString(c.getColumnIndex("type")));
b.append("\n");
} while (c.moveToNext());
}
return b.toString();
}
finally {
if (c != null) {
c.close();
}
if (db != null) {
db.close();
}
}
}
Output will be something like this:
Column: type text
Column: date text
Only for imagination i will give you screen:

you can try it this way:
cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex("recipe"));
it returns you the correct index and as result the correct value.
