The Java code to perform Save New Record.


AddNewRecord.java


package net.kerul.fstmdirektori;

import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.ContentValues;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.database.Cursor;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;

public class AddNewRecord extends Activity {
private EditText txtnama, txtjbt, txttelefon, txtemel;
private Button btnsave;
private DBHelper mHelper;
private SQLiteDatabase dataBase;
private String id,name,telno,email,dept;//to hold the data strings

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_add_new_record);

mHelper=new DBHelper(this);
dataBase = mHelper.getWritableDatabase();

//initiate all textbox container to hold the data for the staff
txtnama=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.txtnama);
txtjbt=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.txtjbt);
txttelefon=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.txttelefon);
txtemel=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.txtemel);

btnsave=(Button)findViewById(R.id.btnsavenew);
btnsave.setOnClickListener( new OnClickListener(){
public void onClick(View v){
//capture amendment
name=txtnama.getText().toString();
telno=txttelefon.getText().toString();
email=txtemel.getText().toString();
dept=txtjbt.getText().toString();

saveData();
}
});//end btnsave setOnCLickCListener
}

//save new record
private void saveData(){
ContentValues values=new ContentValues();

values.put(DBHelper.NAMA,name);
values.put(DBHelper.JBT,dept);
values.put(DBHelper.EMEL,email );
values.put(DBHelper.TELEFON,telno );

System.out.println("");

//save new record to the database into database
dataBase.insert(DBHelper.TABLE_NAME, null, values);

//close database
dataBase.close();
finish();


}

}



 


STEP 3: Add MENU on ActionBar to call the AddNewRecord screen


add-new-record-menu-add


Get back to the main screen (DisplayList.java). Add the onCreateOptionsMenu and onOptionsItemSelected in the DisplayList.java


add-new-record invoke screen from menu


DisplayList.java – updated

}

@Override

//do above till data exhausted
}

//display to screen

mCursor.close();
}//end displayData




@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {

getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.display_list, menu);
return true;
}
@Override

//invoke the AddNewRecord screen using Intent

Now, try compiling and run…

The Challenges of Handling Proverbs in Malay-English Machine Translation – a research paper

*This paper was presented in the 14th International Conference on Translation 2013 ( http://ppa14atf.usm.my/ ). 27 – 29 August 2013, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Penang. The PDF version is here: www.scribd.com/doc/163669571/Khirulnizam-The-Challenges-of-Automated-Detection-and-Translation-of-Malay-Proverb The test data is here: http://www.scribd.com/doc/163669588/Test-Data-for-the-Research-Paper-the-Challenges-of-Handling-Proverbs-in-Malay-English-Machine-Translation Khirulnizam Abd Rahman, Faculty of Information Science & Technology, KUIS Abstract: Proverb is a unique feature of Malay language in which a message or advice is not communicated indirectly through metaphoric phrases.

This paper will discuss the process of automated filtering of Malay proverb in Malay text. The next process is translation. In machine translatio

Most used STRING functions in my PHP coding

These are my favourite string manipulation functions in my daily coding life. Dedicated especially to Web Programming students. Read them and have fun. 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…
