Question

I am creating an android application that consists of a list view when a button was clicked list view was populated with the data consisting in sqlite. i did some thing below i am not getting any error but it was not showing any retrieved data.Please help me with this This is my activity when a button clicked:

fetch_database.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {


            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {

                progressGenerator.start(fetch_database);
                media_player = media_player.create(DatabaseListView.this, R.raw.retrievingfromdatabase);
                media_player.start();


                String[] from = {logindatabase_adapter.USER_NAME,logindatabase_adapter.USER_PASSWORD};
                int[] to = {R.id.txt_username,R.id.txt_pasword};
                cursor = logindatabase_adapter.feching_Data();
                cursoradapter = new SimpleCursorAdapter(DatabaseListView.this, R.layout.listcell, cursor, from, to);
                database_results.setAdapter(cursoradapter);
            }
        });

This is my logindatabase adapter:

Answer 1

Instead of re-inventing the wheel, I would recommend to use more robust solution with all the recommended building blocks (cursor adapter, content provider, data loader, ...) It will save you a lot of grief later. It looks a bit convoluted at the beginning, but it is worth implementing. This approach has been widely publicized elsewhere (Lars Vogel, Wolfram Rittmeyer, Udacity Class (Lesson 4) ...)

I put one such solution on GitHub and you are free to investigate it (the attached APK will show how it behaves). As an added bonus, there is also a PORTRAIT / LANDSCAPE handling with different phone/ tablet layouts.

Good Luck
