Answer 1

The rest is up to our desing, cursor is commanly same

public ArrayList<AboneDataList> getAllPasssiveAboneByDate(String mDate) {
    ArrayList<AboneDataList> foodList = new ArrayList<>();
    AboneDataList food;
    SQLiteDatabase database = dbHelper.getReadableDatabase();
    final String kolonlar[] = {DBHelper.COLUMN_A_ID,
            DBHelper.COLUMN_A_ABONE_NO,
            DBHelper.COLUMN_A_NAME,

    //String whereClause = DBHelper.COLUMN_A_JOURNAL + " = ? AND " + DBHelper.COLUMN_A_IS_ACTIVE + " = ? ";
    //final String whereArgs[] = {String.valueOf(mJournal),isActive};

    //Cursor cursor = database.query(DBHelper.TABLE_ABONE, kolonlar, whereClause, whereArgs,

    Cursor cursor = database.rawQuery("select * from " + DBHelper.TABLE_ABONE + " WHERE "
                          + DBHelper.COLUMN_A_DATE_END + " LIKE '%" + mDate + "%'", null);

    //Cursor cursor = database.query(DBHelper.TABLE_ABONE, kolonlar, null, null, null, null, DBHelper.COLUMN_A_NAME + " ASC");
    while (cursor.moveToNext()) {
        food = new AboneDataList();
        food.setId(cursor.getInt(cursor.getColumnIndex(DBHelper.COLUMN_A_ID)));
        food.setAbone_no(cursor.getInt(cursor.getColumnIndex(DBHelper.COLUMN_A_ABONE_NO)));
        food.setName(cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(DBHelper.COLUMN_A_NAME)));
        food.setIs_stuff(cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(DBHelper.COLUMN_A_IS_STUFF)));
        food.setCountry(cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(DBHelper.COLUMN_A_COUNTRY)));
        food.setCity(cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(DBHelper.COLUMN_A_CITY)));
        food.setTown(cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(DBHelper.COLUMN_A_TOWN)));
        food.setAddress(cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(DBHelper.COLUMN_A_ADDRESS)));
        food.setPhone(cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(DBHelper.COLUMN_A_PHONE)));
        food.setMobile(cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(DBHelper.COLUMN_A_MOBILE)));
        food.setDate_start(cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(DBHelper.COLUMN_A_DATE_START)));

Answer 2

    public java.util.Vector<Products> getsearch(String subcategory,String searchby)
    {
        SQLiteDatabase db=this.getReadableDatabase();

        Cursor cursor = db.query(
            TABLE_PRODUCTS, 
            new String[] { SUBCATEGORY, MAIN_CATEGORY, PRODUCT_ID, PRODUCT_NAME, BRAND, PACKAGE_SIZE, PRICE }, 
            SUBCATEGORY + " LIKE '%" + subcategory + "%'",
            null, null, null, null, null);
    }

Answer 3

You can use Raw Queries.

public Cursor fetchNamesByConstraint(String filter) {
    String query = "SELECT * FROM " + TABLE_NAME + " WHERE " +
                    COLUMN_NAME + " LIKE '%" + filter + "%'" ;
    SQLiteDatabase db = this.getReadableDatabase();
    cursor = db.rawQuery(query, null);
    return mCursor;
}

Answer 4

this statement will return all the records whose keyname equals string specified by string, if you use wild card, then you can get desired results. Like:

mDb.query(true, DATABASE_NAMES_TABLE, new String[] { KEY_ROWID,
            KEY_NAME }, KEY_NAME + " LIKE ?",
            new String[] { filter+"%" }, null, null, null,
            null);

Will Lists all the records starting with word in filter.

mDb.query(true, DATABASE_NAMES_TABLE, new String[] { KEY_ROWID,
            KEY_NAME }, KEY_NAME + " LIKE ?",
            new String[] {"%"+ filter+ "%" }, null, null, null,
            null);

Will Lists all the records containing word in filter.

Answer 5

Can you try this.....code.......

public static final String KEY_ROWID="row";
public static final String KEY_NAME="name";

public Cursor fetchNamesByConstraint(String filter) {

  Cursor cursor=mDb.query(true, DATABASE_NAMES_TABLE, null,"row LIKE '%"+filter+"%' or name LIKE '%"+filter+"%'",null, null, null, null);

  }

Answer 6

You should give the filter with wildcards ;)

"A%"
