Android database (p2)- SEARCH example

Create a new Android Project named Kamus, where the main activity is Carian Kamus. you may refer the example here…

After the Project has been crated, Add a new class named DBHelper class – right click on the package name –> New –-> Class

sqlite-create-new-dbhelper-class

sqlite-create-new-dbhelper-class-write-class-namePut in the class name (DBHelper)

Create a database, a table and populate preconfigured data in the table. This is coded in the DBHelper class.

package net.kerul.kamus;
import android.content.Context;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteOpenHelper;

public class DBHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper {
final protected static String DATABASE_NAME="kamuskerul2";
public DBHelper(Context context) {
super(context, DATABASE_NAME, null,2);
}
@Override
public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {
if (oldVersion >= newVersion) return;
db.execSQL("DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS " + DATABASE_NAME +";");
onCreate(db);
}
@Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {

//here is the database definition
db.execSQL("CREATE TABLE melayuenglish " +
"(katamelayu TEXT, kataeng TEXT);");
//insert pre-configured records
db.execSQL("INSERT INTO melayuenglish (katamelayu, kataeng) VALUES('kereta','car');");
db.execSQL("INSERT INTO melayuenglish (katamelayu, kataeng) VALUES('pukul','hit');");
db.execSQL("INSERT INTO melayuenglish (katamelayu, kataeng) VALUES('duduk','sit');");
db.execSQL("INSERT INTO melayuenglish (katamelayu, kataeng) VALUES('makan','eat');");
db.execSQL("INSERT INTO melayuenglish (katamelayu, kataeng) VALUES('minum','drink');");
}

}



The SEARCH interface – reside in the main activity, which is the Carian Kamus.

Embedding the SQL SELECT statement


In the Java class file, define all GUIs elements as usual. The search process happen when user key-in a word and hit the button. Currently there are only 4 words; kereta (car), makan (eat), pukul (hit) and duduk (sit).

if (item.getItemId()==R.id.minsert){
Intent ins= new Intent (this, InsertActivity.class);
startActivity(ins);
}
return true;
}//end menu/

}

Expect a happiness after a storm , and you’ll find your “inner peace”… This post is still in draft. I’ll update and refine with more examples that I’ve personally develop. More after the break…
