Delete row in SQLite database

android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase class provide a convenience method for deleting rows in the database.

Delete row in SQLite database

Modify SQLiteAdapter.java, implement a method delete_byID(int id) to delete individual row using id.
package com.exercise.AndroidSQLite;

import android.content.ContentValues;
import android.content.Context;
import android.database.Cursor;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteOpenHelper;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase.CursorFactory;

public class SQLiteAdapter {

public static final String MYDATABASE_NAME = "MY_DATABASE";
public static final String MYDATABASE_TABLE = "MY_TABLE";
public static final int MYDATABASE_VERSION = 1;
public static final String KEY_ID = "_id";
public static final String KEY_CONTENT1 = "Content1";
public static final String KEY_CONTENT2 = "Content2";

//create table MY_DATABASE (ID integer primary key, Content text not null);
private static final String SCRIPT_CREATE_DATABASE =
 "create table " + MYDATABASE_TABLE + " ("
 + KEY_ID + " integer primary key autoincrement, "
 + KEY_CONTENT1 + " text not null, "
 + KEY_CONTENT2 + " text not null);";

private SQLiteHelper sqLiteHelper;
private SQLiteDatabase sqLiteDatabase;

private Context context;

public SQLiteAdapter(Context c){
 context = c;
}

public SQLiteAdapter openToRead() throws android.database.SQLException {
 sqLiteHelper = new SQLiteHelper(context, MYDATABASE_NAME, null, MYDATABASE_VERSION);
 sqLiteDatabase = sqLiteHelper.getReadableDatabase();
 return this;
}

public SQLiteAdapter openToWrite() throws android.database.SQLException {
 sqLiteHelper = new SQLiteHelper(context, MYDATABASE_NAME, null, MYDATABASE_VERSION);
 sqLiteDatabase = sqLiteHelper.getWritableDatabase();
 return this;
}

public void close(){
 sqLiteHelper.close();
}

public long insert(String content1, String content2){

 ContentValues contentValues = new ContentValues();
 contentValues.put(KEY_CONTENT1, content1);
 contentValues.put(KEY_CONTENT2, content2);
 return sqLiteDatabase.insert(MYDATABASE_TABLE, null, contentValues);
}

public int deleteAll(){
 return sqLiteDatabase.delete(MYDATABASE_TABLE, null, null);
}

public void delete_byID(int id){
 sqLiteDatabase.delete(MYDATABASE_TABLE, KEY_ID+"="+id, null);
}

public Cursor queueAll(){
 String[] columns = new String[]{KEY_ID, KEY_CONTENT1, KEY_CONTENT2};
 Cursor cursor = sqLiteDatabase.query(MYDATABASE_TABLE, columns,
   null, null, null, null, null);

 return cursor;
}

public class SQLiteHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper {

 public SQLiteHelper(Context context, String name,
   CursorFactory factory, int version) {
  super(context, name, factory, version);
 }

 @Override
 public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
  // TODO Auto-generated method stub
  db.execSQL(SCRIPT_CREATE_DATABASE);
 }

 @Override
 public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {
  // TODO Auto-generated method stub

 }

}

}


Modify AndroidSQLite.java to implement a custom AlertDialog to handle the ui, call delete_byID(int id) to delete row.

import android.widget.SimpleCursorAdapter;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class AndroidSQLite extends Activity {

EditText inputContent1, inputContent2;
Button buttonAdd, buttonDeleteAll;

      listContent.setAdapter(cursorAdapter);

  1. Hi There!

    Thanks for this excellent piece of Code! However, i Found a small bug on It, When i Run the project the update/delete dialog does not appears. I fix them by using -

    SQLiteAdapter.java
    ------------------
    I comment of the following snippets -

    // public int deleteAll(){
    // return sqLiteDatabase.delete(MYDATABASE_TABLE, null, null);
    // }

    And add the following snippets on -
    AndroidSQLite.java
    ------------------
    Button.OnClickListener buttonDeleteAllOnClickListener
    = new Button.OnClickListener(){

    @Override
    public void onClick(View arg0) {
    //TODO Auto-generated method stub
    //mySQLiteAdapter.deleteAll();
    mySQLiteAdapter.delete_byID(1);
    updateList();
    }

    };
    After that the code is working fine. Anyway..Thanks for everything.

    Regards
