Question

I parsed data from json to corresponding class data and them want to save it in the ORMLite… Here my classes

public class Categories {
    ArrayList<Category> categories;

     public Categories() {
        categories = new ArrayList<Category>();
     }

      public ArrayList<Category> getCategories() { 
          return this.categories; 
     }
}

and Levels:

@DatabaseTable(tableName = "levels")
public class Level {
    @SerializedName("id")
    @DatabaseField(id = true)
    int id;

    @SerializedName("title")
    @DatabaseField(dataType = DataType.STRING)
    String title;

    public Level() { }

    public Level(int id, String title) {
         this.id = id;
         this.title = title;
     }
}

OnCreate method in DatabaseHandler class:

@Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db, ConnectionSource connectionSource) {
     try {  
        TableUtils.createTable(connectionSource, Category.class);
        TableUtils.createTable(connectionSource, Level.class);
     } catch (SQLException e){
         Log.e(TAG, "error creating DB " + DATABASE_NAME);
         throw new RuntimeException(e);
     }
}

And DAO methods in DatabaseHandler:

 public Dao<Category, Integer> getCategoryDao() throws SQLException {
    if (simpleCategoryDao == null) {
        simpleCategoryDao = getDao(Category.class);
    }
    return simpleCategoryDao;
}

  public Dao<Level, Integer> getLevelDao() throws SQLException {
        if (simpleLevelDao == null) {
            simpleLevelDao = getDao(Level.class);
        }
        return simpleLevelDao;
    }

    public RuntimeExceptionDao<Category, Integer> getSimpleCategoryDao() {
        if (categoryRuntimeDao == null) {
            categoryRuntimeDao = getRuntimeExceptionDao(Category.class);
        }
        return categoryRuntimeDao;
    }

    public RuntimeExceptionDao<Level, Integer> getSimpleLevelDao() {
        if (levelRuntimeDao == null) {
            levelRuntimeDao = getRuntimeExceptionDao(Level.class);
        }
        return levelRuntimeDao;
    }

I parse my data from JSON in my Activity that way:

 DatabaseHandler db = new DatabaseHandler(getApplicationContext());
    JSONObject data = json.getJSONObject(KEY_DATA);
    // getting categories
   JSONArray categories = new JSONArray();
   categories = data.getJSONArray(KEY_CATEGORIES);
     Gson gson = new Gson();
        JsonParser parser = new JsonParser();
        JsonArray array = parser.parse(categories.toString()).getAsJsonArray();
       Type listType = new TypeToken<List<Category>>() {}.getType();
       List<Category> tasks = new ArrayList<Category>();
        tasks = gson.fromJson(array.toString(), listType);
         RuntimeExceptionDao<Category, Integer> simpleDao = getHelper1().getSimpleCategoryDao();
        Dao<Category, Integer> categoryDao = databaseHandler.getCategoryDao();
         Log.i("categoryDAO",categoryDao.queryForAll().toString());

    // getting levels
    JSONArray jsonlevels =new JSONArray();
    jsonlevels = data.getJSONArray(KEY_LEVELS); 
    JsonArray levelsarray = parser.parse(jsonlevels.toString()).getAsJsonArray();
    Type listlevels = new TypeToken<List<Level>>() {}.getType();
    List<Level> levels = new ArrayList<Level>();
    levels = gson.fromJson(levelsarray.toString(), listlevels);
    Log.i("levelsgson",levels.toString());
    RuntimeExceptionDao<Level, Integer> levelDao = getHelper1().getSimpleLevelDao();
    Log.i("levelDAO",levelDao.toString());
    Dao<Level, Integer> levelsDao = databaseHandler.getLevelDao();
    Log.i("levelsDAO",levelsDao.queryForId(3).toString());

I get Category data successfuly, but I’ve got exception when want to call queryForId() for Level DAO instance.
Got such exception:

So the problem is that ‘levels’ table can’t be creating. Don’t understand why if I use equal mechanism as for Category table..

---

After some analysis I understand that problem is in this method

public void saveContacts(List<Category> contacts) throws SQLException
    {

        OrmLiteSqliteOpenHelper dbHelper= DatabaseHandler.getInstance(_context);
        Dao<Category, Integer> daoContact=dbHelper.getDao(Category.class);

        QueryBuilder<Category, Integer> queryBuilder = daoContact.queryBuilder();
        Log.i("dao",queryBuilder.selectColumns("title").prepare().toString());


        for (Category contact : contacts) {
            Log.i("dao",contact.toString());
            HelperFactory.GetHelper().getCategoryDao().create(contact);
        }

    }

On the create() row. It throws such set of exceptions as :

Help with it please…
