Android SQL only returns one column

Question

I got a SQL database containing the following layout:

The table is called messages with around 5 columns.

I created an Cursor which should get all values from both columns using this:

public List<String> getContacts(SQLiteDatabase db) {
    List<String> List = new ArrayList<String>();
    // Select All Query
    String selectQuery = "SELECT `from`,`to` FROM messages";
    Cursor cursor = db.rawQuery(selectQuery, null);

    // looping through all rows and adding to list
    if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
        do {
            List.add(cursor.getString(1));
        } while (cursor.moveToNext());
    }
    return List;
}

And here I add the values to a ListView:

DatabaseHelper dbHelper = new DatabaseHelper(
            this.getApplicationContext());

    newDB = dbHelper.getWritableDatabase();

    List<String> all = dbHelper.getContacts(newDB);
    if (all.size() > 0) // check if list contains items.
    {

        setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
                android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, all));

    } else {
        Toast.makeText(ConversationsList.this, "No items to display", 1000)
                .show();
    }

And yes values gets added, but only the me which is very weird. What am I doing wrong?

EDIT: Solved it by changing this:

if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
            do {
                List.add(cursor.getString(0));
                List.add(cursor.getString(1));
            } while (cursor.moveToNext());
        }

To:

if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
            do {
                List.add(cursor.getString(0));
                List.add(cursor.getString(1));
            } while (cursor.moveToNext());
        }

Answer 1

Your List<String> List and

do {
    List.add(cursor.getString(1));
    } while (cursor.moveToNext());  

are causing the problem.

If you cannot alter the List type,

do {
     List.add(
            cursor.getString(1) +","
            cursor.getString(1) +","
            ...
            +cursor.getString(n));
    } while (cursor.moveToNext());

will fetch comma delimited values of each record into the String. You can split the string and use the values individually.
