Question

I didn’t understand ..why I am facing this error..

Here is my code:

package com.dswt.book;

import android.content.ContentValues;
import android.content.Context;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteOpenHelper;
import android.util.Log;

public class DatabaseHandler extends SQLiteOpenHelper {

    private static final String DATABASE_NAME = "BookManager";
    private static final int DATABSE_VERSION = 1;
    private static final String TABLE_BOOKS = "books";
    private static final String KEY_ID = "id";
    private static final String KEY_NAME = "name";
    private static final String KEY_EDATA = "edata";
    final String TAG = "addBook";

    public DatabaseHandler(Context context) {
        super(context, DATABASE_NAME, null, DATABSE_VERSION);
        // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
    }

    @Override
    public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
        String CREATE_BOOK_TABLE = "CREATE TABLE " + TABLE_BOOKS + "(" + KEY_ID
                + " INTEGER PRIMARY KEY," + KEY_EDATA + " TEXT," + KEY_NAME
                + " TEXT " + ")";

        //Log.i(TAG, "error");

        db.execSQL(CREATE_BOOK_TABLE);
    }

    @Override
    public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {
        db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS" + TABLE_BOOKS);
        onCreate(db);
    }

    public void addBook(Book book) {
        SQLiteDatabase db = this.getWritableDatabase();

        ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
        values.put(KEY_EDATA, book.getName());
        values.put(KEY_NAME, "book.getEdata());

        db.insert(TABLE_BOOKS, null, values);
        db.close();// closing database connection

        Log.i(TAG, "see the value is adding");
    }

}

Here is my LOG CAT :

Answer 1

If you have changed the schema, you will need to increase DATABSE_VERSION (sic) so that the database can be upgraded, and the table will be recreated with the expected columns.
