I am new to SQL.I have a database of mac-addresses which i created using Sqliteman browser. It is a simple database with just one table named "access_points". The database named macad.db is in my assets folder.I have an application to insert new mac-addresses to the table access_points from an edittextview. My DB Adapter has following initializations:
public static String DATABASE_NAME="macad.db";
public static String DATABASE_PATH= "/data/data/com.example.myproject/databases/";
public static String LOCAL_DATABASE_NAME="macad.db";
what should be the value for my table's(access_points) initialization. Kindly replace the question marks with your answer.
public static String DATABASE_TABLE= ????;
in addition my insertmac method in DB Adapter is given below. How would i refer to my table "access_points" of macad.db which is stored in assets folder? please replace the question marks with your answer in db.insert() statement provided below.
public long insertmac(String mac)
{
ContentValues macValue = new ContentValues();
macValue.put("macaddress1", macaddress1);
return db.insert(????, null, macValue);
}
Also is there any way to ensure that, if a mac-address already exists in the access_points table it is not put again in the table?? Thanks in advance for any solution.my DBAdapter class is below:
public class DbAdapternew {
private static final String TAG = DbAdapter.class.getName();
//private DatabaseHelper mDbHelper;
public static SQLiteDatabase myDb;
public static String DATABASE_NAME="macad.db";
public static String DATABASE_TABLE="access_points";
public static String DATABASE_PATH= "/data/data/com.example.myproject/databases/";
public static String LOCAL_DATABASE_NAME="macad.db";
private static final int DATABASE_VERSION = 2;
private static Context myContext;
public static final String KEY_MAC = "mac_add"; // column 1
public static final String KEY_floor = "floor_id"; // column 2
public static final String KEY_build= "building_id"; //column 3
public static final String KEY_zone = "zone_id"; // column 4

}
}
In my activity there is an update button pressing which should result in putting the typed mac-address in edittextview into the macad.db. the code for this is:
updzonedb.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
db.open();
try
{
db.insertrow(editmac.getText().toString());
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
}
db.close();
}
});
