failed to read row 0,column -1

Question

I am trying to copy a database that I made with SQLite manager, in which I did:

CREATE TABLE \"android_metadata\" (\"locale\" TEXT DEFAULT \'en_US\')
         


        

Answer 1

Another Scenario when this can happen:
You are deleting rows from the cursor while the cursor is still in use.

E.g pseudo-coden where it could happen:

while(cursor.moveToNext()){

  readCursor(cursor);

  deleteRowFromCursor(cursor);

}  

Solution:

Keep list of rows you want to delete; build a batch delete sql statement; execute the statment out side of the while loop ( when you are done with using the cursor anymore or after you close it).

while(cursor.moveToNext()){

  readCursor(cursor);

  queueRowForDelete(cursor);

} 

deleteQueuedRows(queuedRowsList);
