I get an error when I try to retrieve from SQLite into an Array.

  • 0

I get an error when I try to retrieve from SQLite into an Array.
I identified the error cause in the for loop, error in the statement

urlString[i] = allrows.getString(0);

I tried to debug it but still I do not know how to solve it. The method as below:

public String[] getImgURL(){
        mydb = localContext.openOrCreateDatabase(DBNAME, Context.MODE_PRIVATE,null);
        Cursor allrows  = mydb.rawQuery("SELECT ImgURL FROM "+  TABLE, null);
        String[] urlString = new String[allrows.getCount()-1];
        for (int i = 1; i < allrows.getCount(); i++) {
            urlString[i] = allrows.getString(0);
            allrows.moveToNext();               
        }
        allrows.close();    
        mydb.close();
        return urlString;
}

the log as follow

    2 problems, here.

    First, you must start by moving your cursor. moveToFirst or moveToNext is fine.

    Secondly, your index in your array as well as the size of the array is incorrect.

    A proper and current of doing this is as follows:

    mydb = localContext.openOrCreateDatabase(DBNAME, Context.MODE_PRIVATE,null);
Cursor allrows  = mydb.rawQuery("SELECT ImgURL FROM "+  TABLE, null);
List<String> result = new ArrayList<String>();
while (allrows.moveToNext()) {
    result.add(allrows.getString(0));
}
allrows.close();    
mydb.close();
return allrows.toArray(new String[0]);
