  • 0

I have stored an image path in the string selectedImagePath. Now I want to store this string in a SQL Database. Therefore I have created another class, the ImageAdapter.

Can you please look at the code and tell me why the code always crashes when I try to save the string?

This is my onActivityResult method were I were I retrieve the image path and store it in the string selectedImagePath:

@Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
        if (requestCode == PICK_FROM_FILE) {
            Uri selectedImageUri = data.getData();
            selectedImagePath = getPath(selectedImageUri);

            Log.v("IMAGE PATH====>>>> ",selectedImagePath);

            // Save the image path to the database
            long id = mImageHelper.createImage(selectedImagePath);
            if (id > 0) {
                id = mImageRowId;
            }
        }
    }
}

And here is my Database helper, the ImageAdapter:

public class ImageAdapter {

//
// Database Related Constants
//
private static final String DATABASE_NAME = "dataImage";
private static final String DATABASE_TABLE = "remindersImage";
private static final int DATABASE_VERSION = 4;

public static final String KEY_IMAGE = "image";
public static final String KEY_ROWID = "_id";


private static final String TAG = "ImageAdapter";
private DatabaseHelper mImageHelper;
private SQLiteDatabase mImageDb;

/**
 * Database creation SQL statement
 */
private static final String DATABASE_CREATE =
    "create table " + DATABASE_TABLE + " ("
            + KEY_ROWID + " integer primary key autoincrement, "
            + KEY_IMAGE + " text not null)"; 



private final Context mImageCtx;

private static class DatabaseHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper {

    DatabaseHelper(Context context) {
        super(context, DATABASE_NAME, null, DATABASE_VERSION);
    }

    @Override
    public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {

        db.execSQL(DATABASE_CREATE);
    }

    @Override
    public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {
        Log.w(TAG, "Upgrading database from version " + oldVersion + " to "
                + newVersion + ", which will destroy all old data");
        db.execSQL("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS " + DATABASE_TABLE);
        onCreate(db);
    }
}

/**
 * Constructor - takes the context to allow the database to be
 * opened/created
 * 
 * @param ctx the Context within which to work
 */
public ImageAdapter(Context ctx) {
    this.mImageCtx = ctx;
}

/**
 * Open the database. If it cannot be opened, try to create a new
 * instance of the database. If it cannot be created, throw an exception to
 * signal the failure
 * 
 * @return this (self reference, allowing this to be chained in an
 *         initialization call)
 * @throws SQLException if the database could be neither opened or created
 */
public ImageAdapter open() throws SQLException {
    mImageHelper = new DatabaseHelper(mImageCtx);
    mImageDb = mImageHelper.getWritableDatabase();
    return this;
}

public void close() {
    mImageHelper.close();
}



public long createImage(String selectedImagePath) {
    ContentValues cv = new ContentValues();
    cv.put(KEY_IMAGE, selectedImagePath);

    return mImageDb.insert(DATABASE_TABLE, null, cv);
}


public boolean deleteImage(long rowId) {

    return mImageDb.delete(DATABASE_TABLE, KEY_ROWID + "=" + rowId, null) > 0;
}


public Cursor fetchAllImages() {

    return mImageDb.query(DATABASE_TABLE, new String[] {KEY_ROWID, KEY_IMAGE}, null, null, null, null, null);
}


public Cursor fetchImage(long rowId) throws SQLException {

    Cursor mCursor =

            mImageDb.query(true, DATABASE_TABLE, new String[] {KEY_ROWID,
                    KEY_IMAGE}, KEY_ROWID + "=" + rowId, null,
                    null, null, null, null);
    if (mCursor != null) {
        mCursor.moveToFirst();
    }
    return mCursor;

}


public boolean updateImage(long rowId, String image) {
    ContentValues args = new ContentValues();
    args.put(KEY_IMAGE, image);

    return mImageDb.update(DATABASE_TABLE, args, KEY_ROWID + "=" + rowId, null) > 0;
}
}

UPDATE: Here is my LogCat:

    First, lets clean up some code 🙂

    Change this

    private static final String DATABASE_CREATE =
"create table " + DATABASE_TABLE + " ("
        + KEY_ROWID + " integer primary key autoincrement, "
        + KEY_IMAGE + " text not null)";

    to

    private static final String DATABASE_CREATE =
"create table if not exists " + DATABASE_TABLE + " ("
        + KEY_ROWID + " integer primary key autoincrement, "
        + KEY_IMAGE + " text not null)";

    Now, uninstall the app or clear data, so that any previously created databases gets deleted. Try your app, and post results. Please also post the result from this line:

    Log.v("IMAGE PATH====>>>> ", selectedImagePath);
