Question

Good evening!

I’m trying to read from a SQLite database i just created in my android project. I create the database and enter data without any problems (I think). I query the db to get the data without any runtime complanints and i get a cursor returned from the method call. But the application crashes when i try to use the cursor. “Thread exiting with uncaught exception (group=0x416b72a0).

This is the code i’m trying to run. The toString of the cursor is working fine.

 TransactionSQLOH helper = new TransactionSQLOH(context, getDbName(yearS, monthS));
    SQLiteDatabase db = helper.getReadableDatabase();
    String[] columns = {"amount", "label", "year", "month", "day", "categoryID", "type", "ID", "time"};
    Cursor cursor = db.query(TransactionSQLOH.TABLE_NAME, columns, null, null, null, null, null);
    System.out.println(db);
    helper.close();
    System.out.println("Transaction_Check3.1");
    if (cursor == null){
        return null;
    }
    System.out.println("Transaction_Check3.2");
    System.out.println(cursor);
    int test = cursor.getCount();
    System.out.println("Transaction_Check3.3");
    Transaction[] result = new Transaction[10];  

I get the errror at the line

int test = cursor.getCount(); 

Help would be greatly appreciated 🙂

Edit, log:

Answer 1

Move:

helper.close();

To after:

int test = cursor.getCount();

You are getting an IllegalStateException exception because you are trying to use a Cursor after the SQLiteOpenHelper that accesses the db for it has been closed. This results in an error.
