Question

Can you guys see anything wrong with a db table creation statement?

CREATE TABLE userdata(_id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,title TEXT, login TEXT, password TEXT, notes TEXT, favorite INTEGER DEFAULT 0);

I use this String to create a db table:

public static final String CREATE_DATABASE = "CREATE TABLE " + TABLE_NAME
            + "(_id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT," + COLUMN_NAME_TITLE + " TEXT, "
            + COLUMN_NAME_LOGIN + " TEXT, " + COLUMN_NAME_PASSWORD + " TEXT, " + COLUMN_NAME_NOTES
            + " TEXT, " + COLUMN_NAME_FAV + " INTEGER DEFAULT 0);";

db.execSQL(CREATE_DATABASE);

But after all I don’t have the latest (COLUMN_NAME_FAV) column in a table, I don’t understand why. Here how I check:

c.getColumnIndex(COLUMN_NAME_FAV);

returns me -1, meaning theres is no such a column.

Answer 1

The column is only present in your Cursor if you have included that column in your SELECT query from which the Cursor is obtained.

Make sure your query includes something like

SELECT favorite, .... FROM userdata
