I really have some troubles since 1 week ago.
I got errors like this :
03-04 14:55:35.690: E/AndroidRuntime(8700): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{thet.mon.aye/thet.mon.aye.DevilscanActivity}: android.database.sqlite.SQLiteException: no such column: barcodeType: , while compiling: SELECT _id, barcodeType, price FROM notes
Please kindly help !!!
I am a beginner Android programmer with Intermediate Java level.
What I am trying to do is to scan the multiple barcodes and list them
So, on my first screen, I got one “scan” button and when I scan the barcodes, the results will be shown below that “scan” button.
I use 2 activities :ListActivity which is main of this program and ZXing activity.
I have a SQLite adapter for storing the information of the barcode.
Pseudocode is that ListActivity will call the ZXing Activity, get the barcode result and store it in SQLite database (which is BarcodeDBAdapter in my case)
I have 3 java classes :
1) DevilScanActivity.java for listactivity or main
2) ZXingScan which is the barcode scanning activity
3) BarcodeDBAdapter which is the SQLite database
This is my DevilScanActivity.java
`
package thet.mon.aye;
import android.app.ListActivity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.database.Cursor;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.ListView;
import android.widget.SimpleCursorAdapter;
public class DevilscanActivity extends ListActivity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
private static final int ACTIVITY_CREATE=0;
private BarcodeDBAdapter mDbHelper;
private Cursor mNotesCursor;
private ZxingScan zxscan;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.barcode_list);
mDbHelper = new BarcodeDBAdapter(this);
mDbHelper.open();
fillData();
// getListView();
final Button scanButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button);
scanButton.setOnClickListener(new Button.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
// call ZXingScan on click !
zxscan.getIntent();
finish();
}
});
}
private void fillData() {
// Get all of the rows from the database and create the item list
mNotesCursor = mDbHelper.fetchAllNotes();
startManagingCursor(mNotesCursor);
// Create an array to specify the fields we want to display in the list (only TITLE)
String[] from = new String[]{BarcodeDBAdapter.KEY_BARCODE_TYPE};
// and an array of the fields we want to bind those fields to (in this case just text1)
int[] to = new int[]{R.id.text1};
// Now create a simple cursor adapter and set it to display
SimpleCursorAdapter notes =
new SimpleCursorAdapter(this, R.layout.barcode_row, mNotesCursor, from, to);
setListAdapter(notes);
}
protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);
l=getListView();
Cursor c = mNotesCursor;
c.moveToPosition(position);
Intent i = new Intent(this, ZxingScan.class);
i.putExtra(BarcodeDBAdapter.KEY_ROWID, id);
i.putExtra(BarcodeDBAdapter.KEY_BARCODE_TYPE, c.getString(
c.getColumnIndexOrThrow(BarcodeDBAdapter.KEY_BARCODE_TYPE)));
i.putExtra(BarcodeDBAdapter.KEY_PRICE, c.getString(
c.getColumnIndexOrThrow(BarcodeDBAdapter.KEY_PRICE)));
startActivityForResult(i, ACTIVITY_CREATE);
}
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent intent) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, intent);
Bundle extras = intent.getExtras();
switch(requestCode) {
case ACTIVITY_CREATE:
String title = extras.getString(BarcodeDBAdapter.KEY_BARCODE_TYPE);
String body = extras.getString(BarcodeDBAdapter.KEY_PRICE);
mDbHelper.createNote(title, body);
fillData();
break;
}
}
}
`
This is my ZXingScan.java
package thet.mon.aye;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
public class ZxingScan extends Activity {
private BarcodeDBAdapter barcodedb;
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent intent1) {
intent1 = new Intent("com.google.zxing.client.android.SCAN");
intent1.putExtra("SCAN_MODE", "QR_CODE_MODE");
startActivityForResult(intent1, 0);
if (requestCode == 0) {
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
String contents = intent1.getStringExtra("SCAN_RESULT");
String format = intent1.getStringExtra("SCAN_RESULT_FORMAT");
barcodedb.createNote(contents, format);
// call DevilscanActivity
// Handle successful scan
} else if (resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED) {
// Handle cancel
}
}
}
}

==================================================================================
After I chaged the following in DatabaseDB class , my SQLite is okay now !
private static final String DATABASE_CREATE = “CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS ” + DATABASE_TABLE + ” (” +
KEY_ROWID + ” INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, ” + KEY_PRICE + ” TEXT NOT NULL, ” +
KEY_BARCODE_TYPE + ” TEXT NOT NULL);”;
However, don’t forget to increment the database version , eg, form 1 to 2 , from 2 to 3 !
but I got nullpointer exception ! help again please

By taking a quick look at your code I see that you “select barcodeType”, but barcodeType was never defined in your CREATE query. So the column simply cannot be found.
