How can i open a database in a class that is not a subclass of Activity?
In a subclass of Activity, i can use openOrCreateDatabase() but can i open a database in a different class?
I tried making the database instance a static one and open it in an Activity and get the static instance in the other class, but it throws an exception stating the database is closed.
Check out this tutorial.
I went through it and it’s a really good tutorial on how to use SQLite in Android.
Essentially you need to create a database helper class that will do the table creation. Then you can use this helper class in your
Activityto create your database and or tables.
