I am learing to code and made a stopwatch that saves the laptimes in a String and gets the date as a String as well. I want to put those in a SQLite database (so i can later display the date in a listview and open it in another activity that shows all the laptimes.) I've followed some of the codes on the internet and try to put stuff together so I might look over some things in my code. I've commented on the parts I think i understand so you can follow my thinking a bit.
The problem: when i press save the following code is executed and returns the toastmessage: Somehting went wrong.
save.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
String dateStamp = getCurrentTimeStamp();
AddData(dataInput, dateStamp);
//DatabaseHelper.deleteAll();
}
}); //save data though AddData method as input the listText
The method AddData is as follows:
public void AddData(String time, String date) {
boolean insertData = DatabaseHelper.addData(time, date);
if (insertData) {
toastMessage(dataInput);
} else {
toastMessage("Something went wrong");
}
}
The boolean method in the DatabaseHelper class is this:
public boolean addData(String times, String date) { //addData that takes a string
SQLiteDatabase db = this.getWritableDatabase(); //database called db and use getWritableDatabase method
ContentValues contentValues = new ContentValues(); //make a new object of ContentValues
contentValues.put(COL_2, times); //put COL_2 and the String in the ContentValues object
contentValues.put(COL_3, date);
long result = db.insert(TABLE_NAME, null, contentValues); //insert contentValues object into the table
//if date as inserted incorrectly it will return -1
if (result == -1) {
db.close();
return false;
} else {
return true;
}
}
It works when i input just 1 variable in addData() but not with 2 that I later implemented. I think it should work. Below I also put the code that is used to make the SQLite Database.
public static final String TABLE_NAME = "stopwatch"; //make a table with name
public static final String COL_1 = "ID"; //make an ID for every colomn
public static final String COL_2 = "times"; //make a 2nd colomn for data
public static final String COL_3= "date";
public DatabaseHelper(Context context) {
super(context, TABLE_NAME, null, 1);
}
@Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) { //make the onCreate method that takes the database as input
String createTable = "CREATE TABLE " + TABLE_NAME + " ( " + COL_1 + " INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, " +
COL_2 +" TEXT" + COL_3 +" TEXT)"; //create the table with SQL statements to input the data correctly
db.execSQL(createTable); //input the SQL statements in the DB
}
@Override
public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) { //make upgrade method that takes the database and the versions
db.execSQL("DROP IF TABLE EXISTS " + TABLE_NAME); //execute SQL statements drop table and which one
onCreate(db); //run through create method
}
I hope someone can help me to find the problem so I can learn more.
