如何在Android中插入新的SQLite表行？

Question

I am working on a attendance apps for teacher. I have created database and trying to insert a new row but I am getting errors.I am giving few necessary code below. Database creation is as:

String aquery="CREATE TABLE "+ATTENDANCE_TABLE_NAME+" ( COLUMN_DATE TEXT PRIMARY KEY );";
            db.execSQL(aquery);

And ALTER the table as:

String aquery="ALTER TABLE "+ATTENDANCE_TABLE_NAME+" ADD COLUMN '"+new_col_name+"' TEXT;";
db.execSQL(aquery);

now I am inserting a row a new row as:

ContentValues Values=new ContentValues();
        SQLiteDatabase db=getWritableDatabase();
        // finding all column
        Cursor dbCursor = db.query(ATTENDANCE_TABLE_NAME, null, null, null, null, null, null);
        String[] columnNames = dbCursor.getColumnNames();
        String zero="0";

        for (int i=0;i<columnNames.length;i++)
        {
            // saving values to each specific column
            if(i==0)
                Values.put("COLUMN_DATE", date );
            else
                Values.put(columnNames[i],"'"+zero+"'");
        }
            check = db.insert(ATTENDANCE_TABLE_NAME, null , Values);

But I am getting this error:

Please help me in insertion of new row.

Answer 1

Column Names in SqLite may not start with a number[0-9]. Change the column name to something like "A14202".

BTW Adding a column for each assignment may not be the best design. SqLite will only allow 2000 columns.

Answer 2

Column names in sqlite should be start with the Alphabet letter{AZ,az}. It should not start with numeric value. Try this:

String aquery="ALTER TABLE "+ATTENDANCE_TABLE_NAME+" ADD COLUMN '"+"A"+new_col_name+"' TEXT;";
db.execSQL(aquery);
