Question

I am new on android. I am trying to create a table in a db using the following code but there is some error

db.beginTransaction();
    try {

        db.execSQL("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `book` (`id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,`title` varchar(100) NOT NULL,`author_name` varchar(100) NOT NULL,`text_b` text NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`id`)) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=1 ;");
        db.setTransactionSuccessful();
    } catch (SQLiteException e) {
        Log.d("Maaz", "Exception 2 : SQL Exception 2 " + e.getMessage());
    } finally {
        db.endTransaction();
    }

The above code is giving me the following error

Failure 1 (near "AUTO_INCREMENT": syntax error)
on 0x23c510 when preparing 'CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `book` (`id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,`title` varchar(100) NOT NULL,`author_name` varchar(100) NOT NULL,`text_b` text NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`id`)) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=1 ;'.

Kindly help me. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Change AUTO_INCREMENT to AUTOINCREMENT.

Edit:

Try this,

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS book (
    _id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, 
    title varchar(100) NOT NULL, 
    author_name varchar(100) NOT NULL, 
    text_b TEXT NOT NULL
);
