Question

I have a precompiled insertstatment that looks like this

this.insertStmt = this.db.compileStatement("INSERT INTO " + TABLE_NAME + " (name, date) VALUES (?, ?)");

I know how to bind the name

this.insertStmt.bindString(1, "Test");

But how can I solve this with a Date object?

Answer 1

SQLite does not have a storage class for Dates. See the SQLite DataTypes.

What I would recommend is to store your Date as long, in an integer column from your Database and when you fetch data from your database you could easily create a Date object from your Cursor by using:

   myDate=new Date(cursor.getLong(DATE_COL_INDEX));
