I need to update a value in a column from a certain table. I tried this :
public void updateOneColumn(String TABLE_NAME, String Column, String rowId, String Col
Easy solution:
String sql = "UPDATE "+TABLE_NAME +" SET " + ColumnName+ " = '"+newValue+"' WHERE "+Column+ " = "+rowId;
Better solution:
ContentValues cv = new ContentValues();
cv.put(ColumnName, newValue);
db.update(TABLE_NAME, cv, Column + "= ?", new String[] {rowId});
The below solution works for me for updating single row values:
public long fileHasBeenDownloaded(String fileName)
{
SQLiteDatabase db = this.getWritableDatabase();
long id = 0;
try {
ContentValues cv = new ContentValues();
cv.put(IFD_ISDOWNLOADED, 1);
// The columns for the WHERE clause
String selection = (IFD_FILENAME + " = ?");
// The values for the WHERE clause
String[] selectionArgs = {String.valueOf(InhalerFileDownload.fileName)};
id = db.update(TABLE_INHALER_FILE_DOWNLOAD, cv, selection, selectionArgs);
}
catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return id;
}
