Question

I am developing an Android application where I get the following exception while writing to the database:

An exception occurred: android.database.sqlite.SQLiteException

But it doest say anything else(not even the stack trace).

In general I find it very difficult to debug android SDK exceptions.

Any suggestions/tips on how to debug while developing android applications?

• I am using Eclipse to develop the application.

Answer 1

You need to learn how to Debug in Eclipse and how to use the ADB and DDMS tools.

In order to get more details about an exception/force close you need to look for a view in Eclipse called Logcat(you will find in the DDMS perspective) there you will find a detailed traceback when/what and on what line is the issue.

For this you should read a complete article about Debugging in Android using Eclipse
