I've been following TheNewBoston's tutorial on Android App Development for beginners. I'm currently in the SQLite part. I copied exactly everything he typed in the tutorial. Unfortunately, the code in the tutorial worked and mine didn't and I can't figure out why. I need help please. Here's what I typed:
MainActivity.java:
package com.example.sha_elregencia.database;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteOpenHelper;
import android.database.Cursor;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.ContentValues;
public class MyDBHandler extends SQLiteOpenHelper{
private static final int DATABASE_VERSION = 1;
private static final String DATABASE_NAME = "products.db"; //name of file
public static final String TABLE_PRODUCTS = "products"; //name of table
public static final String COLUMN_ID = "_id";
public static final String COLUMN_PRODUCTNAME = "productname";
public MyDBHandler(Context context, String name, SQLiteDatabase.CursorFactory factory, int version) {
super(context, DATABASE_NAME, factory, DATABASE_VERSION);
}
@Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
String query = "CREATE TABLE " + TABLE_PRODUCTS + "(" +
COLUMN_ID + " INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT " +
COLUMN_PRODUCTNAME + " TEXT " +
");";
db.execSQL(query);
}
@Override
public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {
db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS " + TABLE_PRODUCTS);
onCreate(db);
}
public void addProduct(Products product) {
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(COLUMN_PRODUCTNAME, product.get_productname());
SQLiteDatabase db = getWritableDatabase();
db.insert(TABLE_PRODUCTS, null, values);
db.close();
}
public void deleteProduct(String productName) {
SQLiteDatabase db = getWritableDatabase();
db.execSQL("DELETE FROM " + TABLE_PRODUCTS + " WHERE " + COLUMN_PRODUCTNAME + "=\"" + productName + "\";");
//must be the variable passed in
}
public String databaseToString() {
String dbString = "";
SQLiteDatabase db = getWritableDatabase();
String query = "SELECT * FROM " + TABLE_PRODUCTS + " WHERE 1 ";
//means select //select every row
//everything
//Cursor points to a location in your results
Cursor c = db.rawQuery(query, null);
c.moveToFirst();
while(!c.isAfterLast()) {
if(c.getString(c.getColumnIndex("productname")) != null) {
dbString += c.getString(c.getColumnIndex("productname"));
dbString += "\n";
}
c.moveToNext();
}
db.close();
return dbString;
}
}
Products.java:
package com.example.sha_elregencia.database;
public class Products {
private int _id;
private String _productname;
public Products() {
}
public Products(String productname) {
this._productname = productname;
}
public void set_id(int _id) {
this._id = _id;
}
public void set_productname(String _productname) {
this._productname = _productname;
}
public int get_id() {
return _id;
}
public String get_productname() {
return _productname;
}
}
MyDBHandler.java:
package com.example.sha_elregencia.database;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteOpenHelper;
import android.database.Cursor;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.ContentValues;
public class MyDBHandler extends SQLiteOpenHelper{
private static final int DATABASE_VERSION = 1;
private static final String DATABASE_NAME = "products.db"; //name of file
public static final String TABLE_PRODUCTS = "products"; //name of table
public static final String COLUMN_ID = "_id";
public static final String COLUMN_PRODUCTNAME = "productname";
public MyDBHandler(Context context, String name, SQLiteDatabase.CursorFactory factory, int version) {
super(context, DATABASE_NAME, factory, DATABASE_VERSION);
}
@Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
String query = "CREATE TABLE " + TABLE_PRODUCTS + "(" +
COLUMN_ID + " INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT " +
COLUMN_PRODUCTNAME + " TEXT " +
");";
db.execSQL(query);
}
@Override
public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {
db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS " + TABLE_PRODUCTS);
onCreate(db);
}
public void addProduct(Products product) {
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(COLUMN_PRODUCTNAME, product.get_productname());
SQLiteDatabase db = getWritableDatabase();
db.insert(TABLE_PRODUCTS, null, values);
db.close();
}
public void deleteProduct(String productName) {
SQLiteDatabase db = getWritableDatabase();
db.execSQL("DELETE FROM " + TABLE_PRODUCTS + " WHERE " + COLUMN_PRODUCTNAME + "=\"" + productName + "\";");
//must be the variable passed in
}
public String databaseToString() {
String dbString = "";
SQLiteDatabase db = getWritableDatabase();
String query = "SELECT * FROM " + TABLE_PRODUCTS + " WHERE 1 ";
//means select //select every row
//everything
//Cursor points to a location in your results
Cursor c = db.rawQuery(query, null);
c.moveToFirst();
while(!c.isAfterLast()) {
if(c.getString(c.getColumnIndex("productname")) != null) {
dbString += c.getString(c.getColumnIndex("productname"));
dbString += "\n";
}
c.moveToNext();
}
db.close();
return dbString;
}
}
And everytime I run it, it crashes and says this:

You are just missing a ,
.
String query = "CREATE TABLE " + TABLE_PRODUCTS + "(" +
COLUMN_ID + " INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT ," +
COLUMN_PRODUCTNAME + " TEXT " +
");";
