SQLite app won't run at all. Force close message appears - android-sqlite

I am creating an app using SQLite.
It crashes before loading.
I fixed all viable errors and since I do not even get a log info, I am having troubles figuring out the error.
Please help.

There's an error in you table creation:
String CREATE_MEDIA_TABLE = "CREATE TABLE media ( " +
"id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, " +
"tyoe TYPE, "+
"title TEXT, "+
"author TEXT )";
TYPE is not a valid SQLlite Data Type.
Please refer to this page: https://www.sqlite.org/datatype3.html
I'd write your table creation as
String CREATE_MEDIA_TABLE = "CREATE TABLE media (" +
"id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, " +
"tyoe TEXT, "+
"title TEXT, "+
"author TEXT)";

Replacement for "GROUP BY" in ContentResolver query in Android Q ( Android 10, API 29 changes)

I'm upgrading some legacy to target Android Q, and of course this code stop working:
String[] PROJECTION_BUCKET = {MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.BUCKET_ID,
MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.BUCKET_DISPLAY_NAME,
MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.DATE_TAKEN,
MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns.DATA,
"COUNT(" + MediaStore.Images.ImageColumns._ID + ") AS COUNT",
MediaStore.Files.FileColumns.MEDIA_TYPE,
MediaStore.MediaColumns._ID};
String BUCKET_GROUP_BY = " 1) and " + BUCKET_WHERE.toString() + " GROUP BY 1,(2";
cur = context.getContentResolver().query(images, PROJECTION_BUCKET,
BUCKET_GROUP_BY, null, BUCKET_ORDER_BY);
android.database.sqlite.SQLiteException: near "GROUP": syntax error (code 1 SQLITE_ERROR[1])
Here it supposed to obtain list of images with album name, date, count of pictures - one image for each album, so we can create album picker screen without querying all pictures and loop through it to create albums.
Is it possible to group query results with contentResolver since SQL queries stoped work?
(I know that ImageColumns.DATA and "COUNT() AS COUNT" are deprecated too, but this is a question about GROUP BY)
(There is a way to query albums and separately query photo, to obtain photo uri for album cover, but i want to avoid overheads)
Unfortunately Group By is no longer supported in Android 10 and above, neither any aggregated functions such as COUNT. This is by design and there is no workaround.
The solution is what you are actually trying to avoid, which is to query, iterate, and get metrics.
To get you started you can use the next snipped, which will resolve the buckets (albums), and the amount of records in each one.
I haven't added code to resolve the thumbnails, but is easy. You must perform a query for each bucket Id from all the Album instances, and use the image from the first record.
public final class AlbumQuery
{
#NonNull
public static HashMap<String, AlbumQuery.Album> get(#NonNull final Context context)
{
final HashMap<String, AlbumQuery.Album> output = new HashMap<>();
final Uri contentUri = MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI;
final String[] projection = {MediaStore.Images.Media.BUCKET_DISPLAY_NAME, MediaStore.Images.Media.BUCKET_ID};
try (final Cursor cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(contentUri, projection, null, null, null))
{
if ((cursor != null) && (cursor.moveToFirst() == true))
{
final int columnBucketName = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.Images.Media.BUCKET_DISPLAY_NAME);
final int columnBucketId = cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.Images.Media.BUCKET_ID);
do
{
final String bucketId = cursor.getString(columnBucketId);
final String bucketName = cursor.getString(columnBucketName);
if (output.containsKey(bucketId) == false)
{
final int count = AlbumQuery.getCount(context, contentUri, bucketId);
final AlbumQuery.Album album = new AlbumQuery.Album(bucketId, bucketName, count);
output.put(bucketId, album);
}
} while (cursor.moveToNext());
}
}
return output;
}
private static int getCount(#NonNull final Context context, #NonNull final Uri contentUri, #NonNull final String bucketId)
{
try (final Cursor cursor = context.getContentResolver().query(contentUri,
null, MediaStore.Images.Media.BUCKET_ID + "=?", new String[]{bucketId}, null))
{
return ((cursor == null) || (cursor.moveToFirst() == false)) ? 0 : cursor.getCount();
}
}
public static final class Album
{
#NonNull
public final String buckedId;
#NonNull
public final String bucketName;
public final int count;
Album(#NonNull final String bucketId, #NonNull final String bucketName, final int count)
{
this.buckedId = bucketId;
this.bucketName = bucketName;
this.count = count;
}
}
}
This is a more efficient(not perfect) way to do that.
I am doing it for videos, but doing so is the same for images to. just change MediaStore.Video.Media.X to MediaStore.Images.Media.X

Database update without data loss. FATAL EXCEPTION: ModernAsyncTask #1

I need to implement an update of the database lying in the assets. User data, namely, in the "favorite" record or not, should be saved.
I already asked a question and they helped me -https://stackoverflow.com/a/53827525/10261947
Everything worked in a test application. But when I transferred the code (exactly the same) to the real application, an error occurs - E/AndroidRuntime: FATAL EXCEPTION: ModernAsyncTask #1

I do not understand what is wrong. Identical code works great friend application. I would be grateful for the help.
Your issue is that you likely have a value of null in the years column of a row or rows in the updated database that data is being copied from.
Although you could change the code to handle (skip insertion or use provide a year value) the end result may not be desired. So the most likely fix would be to amend the database to have valid/useful year values.

SQLite database is not updating within an application

I am developing an application. When I modify my data, the previous data is displayed and not the updated data. This is the ModifyActivity.java file:

If you're update function returns an int, then in your onClick function, rather than typing:
dbHelper.update(calendars);
You need to type:
int update = dbHelper.update(calendars);
Or:
if (dbHelper.update(calendars) > 0) {
// do something here
}
I would recommend the latter of the options. See how you go.

I need to show different tool tip for each table cell

Please see this
This is what I want to see... I mean the tool tip
At run time I get this error message for each row that is being loaded.
The tool tip text lies in the an object and is retrieved by thisRow.getCourseTootip(i);
Number of columns in the table varies and I create them and add them to the table view thru code.
for (int courseNo = 0; courseNo < numberOfCourses; courseNo++) {
String colName = getASemesterCourse(thisSemester, courseNo).getCourseID();
TableColumn<AResultRow, String> thisColumn = new TableColumn<>(colName);
thisColumn.setPrefWidth(80);
thisColumn.setStyle("-fx-alignment: CENTER; font-weight:bold;");
String str = TableRows.get(1).getGrade(courseNo);
final int i = courseNo;
thisColumn.setCellValueFactory(cellData -> cellData.getValue().courseGradeProperty(i));
thisColumn.setCellFactory(new Callback<TableColumn<AResultRow, String>, TableCell<AResultRow, String>>() {
public TableCell<AResultRow, String> call(TableColumn<AResultRow, String> column) {
return new TableCell<AResultRow, String>() {
#Override
protected void updateItem(String item, boolean empty) {
super.updateItem(item, empty);
if (!empty) {
setText(item);
AResultRow thisRow = new AResultRow();
thisRow = getTableView().getItems().get(getTableRow().getIndex());
final Tooltip tip= new Tooltip();
tip.setText(thisRow.getCourseTootip(i));
setTooltip(tip);
tip.setStyle("-fx-background-color: pink; -fx-text-fill: black; -fx-font: normal normal 12pt \"Times New Roman\"");
}
}
};
}
});
boolean retVal = thisTable.getColumns().addAll(thisColumn);
}
Error is
Exception in thread "JavaFX Application Thread" java.lang.NullPointerException
at victoriairene.TheMainFXMLController$1$1.updateItem(TheMainFXMLController.java:434)
at victoriairene.TheMainFXMLController$1$1.updateItem(TheMainFXMLController.java:427)
Line 434 is
thisRow = getTableView().getItems().get(getTableRow().getIndex());
Text for the tool tip for this cell comes from thisRow.getCourseTootip(i).
Can someone tell me, what is wrong with my code? Which object is null ? If it is null, then how do I get to see the correct Tooltip text, in spite of getting error messages for each row ?
I have been struggling with this for one full day.
Please help and thanks in advance.

I am repeating the hierarchy again - please excuse.
Table view is associated with an observablelist named ATableRows which a class ATableRow.
ATableRow contains several members and one of them is an array of class ACourseResult.
I need to know the ROW number and the array index (which is actually the Table Column number for that Cell) before I can retrieve the text for the tooltip.
Thing is the code works... except for the runtime error of null pointer. I still do not understand what the CellFactory and CellValueFactories do. Sorry about that. Oracle's documents do not say what they do......
While I am at this.... I want to tell you that my TABLE is READ ONLY. Do I Have to use the Observable List ? Can't I do this by setting values directly to each cell (just a curiosity).
Thanks in advance and sorry if my questions seem dumber.
Thanks to JAMES my problem is solved.... I am enclosing the modified code for others.

The quick, and wrong, answer to the question is to point out that TableCell has a getTableRow() method, that will give you the row data without having to look it up through the underlying data via the row index.
Technically, you should give the TableCell all of the information it needs to work independently when its updateItem() method is called. This would mean restructing the data model such that the table cell is given a structure with both the displayed contents of the cell, and the text to go in the tooltip. It would appear that the AResultRow data structure has two associated lists, one with whatever shows in the cell, and the other with whatever goes into the tooltip. My suggestion would be to refactor that so that it's a single list holding objects which contain both data elements. Once you do that, the rest of the table structure becomes trivial. Here's a working example:
public class SampleTable extends Application {
private BorderPane testPane;
class TestPane extends BorderPane {
public TestPane(List<DataModel> dataItems) {
TableView<DataModel> tableView = new TableView<DataModel>();
setCenter(tableView);
TableColumn<DataModel, ClassInfo> column1 = new TableColumn<DataModel, ClassInfo>("column 1");
TableColumn<DataModel, ClassInfo> column2 = new TableColumn<DataModel, ClassInfo>("column 2");
column1.setCellValueFactory(new PropertyValueFactory<DataModel, ClassInfo>("column1Data"));
column2.setCellValueFactory(new PropertyValueFactory<DataModel, ClassInfo>("column2Data"));
column1.setCellFactory(column -> new CustomTableCell());
column2.setCellFactory(column -> new CustomTableCell());
tableView.getColumns().addAll(column1, column2);
tableView.setItems(FXCollections.observableList(dataItems));
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
public class CustomTableCell extends TableCell<DataModel, ClassInfo> {
#Override
protected void updateItem(ClassInfo item, boolean empty) {
super.updateItem(item, empty);
if (!empty) {
if (item != null) {
setText(item.getName());
setTooltip(new Tooltip(item.getDescription()));
}
}
}
}

row1Data.setColumn2Data(new ClassInfo("row1Col2Name", "This is the description for Row1, Column 2"));
dataItems.add(row1Data);
DataModel row2Data = new DataModel();
row2Data.setColumn1Data(new ClassInfo("row2Col1Name", "This is the description for Row2, Column 1"));
row2Data.setColumn2Data(new ClassInfo("row2Col2Name", "This is the description for Row2, Column 2"));
dataItems.add(row2Data);
testPane = new TestPane(dataItems);
primaryStage.setScene(new Scene(testPane, 300, 250));

best way to manage a history from both activity and service?

Short version: what is the best practice way to access maintain a history for certain messages from both an activity and from a service?
Long version:
I have an activity and a service, which both may be running or not. I want to keep a message log (history) in an object an persist it in a file and be able to e.g. delete entries.
When I have such history in the service and one in the activity I run into sync problems. So, any advice, what the best solution would be?
ideally I could use the methods from the history class in both the service and activity. Probably not possible.
I could write and read the file in each action. Probably not very efficient in the long run.
do I really need to setup a service for the history and handle all actions with it via intents?
It is a bit similiar to "proper way to access DB from both Activity and a started Service?", but with just an own class instead of a SQLite DB.
Any advice?

What you are describing there sounds exactly like a ContentProvider! Link to documentation.
You can use a ContentResolver instance to access data in the ContentProvider from anywhere, be it Activity or Service. The ContentProvider and ContentResolver already handle most of the work for you and basically you just need to implement how you want to save the data in the ContentProvider. The rest is already taken care of! The ContentProvider may have been designed to be used with a SQLiteDatabase - and I would recommend that you use a database - but there is nothing preventing you from saving the data in another way.
If you are not looking for DB style persistence, then maybe a Queue with File backed persistence is what you are looking for:
This maybe of use
https://github.com/square/tape/blob/master/tape/src/main/java/com/squareup/tape/QueueFile.java
Tip: Create a QueueFile singleton in your App class, and access it from your Activities or services.
