Question

i want to save and retrieve image path in my application

this is my DBhelper

public void insert(String kdstore,String nama, String alamat, String kodepos, String notel, 
        String lng, String lat ,String Perus,String gambar){

    //waktu = new Date().toString();
    ContentValues cv = new ContentValues();
    cv.put("kdstore", kdstore);
    cv.put("nama", nama);
    cv.put("alamat", alamat);
    cv.put("kodepos", kodepos);
    cv.put("notel", notel);
    cv.put("lng", lng);
    cv.put("lat", lat);
    cv.put("Perus", Perus);
    cv.put("gambar", df.fileName);
    System.out.println();
    getWritableDatabase().insert("alfamapp", "name", cv);
}

and this is my startCameraActivity

_path=Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getPath() + "/DCIM/Camera/";
        fileName =  String.format(System.currentTimeMillis()+".jpg");
        File file = new File(_path, fileName);
        try {
        file.createNewFile();
        } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
        }
        Uri outputFileUri = Uri.fromFile(file);
        Intent intent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
        intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, outputFileUri);

        startActivityForResult(intent, IMAGE_CAPTURE); 

how can i save path from cameraActivity in my database??
please help me 🙂

i put code to inserting on startCamera method,,this code like this

public void startCamera() 
{
    Cursor c = helper.getById(almagId);
    c.moveToFirst();

    file = new File(_path, fileName);
    try {
    file.createNewFile();
    } catch (IOException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    }    

    file1 = new File(_path, fileName);
    try {
    file1.createNewFile();
    } catch (IOException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    }

    Uri outputFileUri = Uri.fromFile(file);
    Intent intent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
    intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, outputFileUri);
    finishActivity(IMAGE_CAPTURE);

    Uri outputFileUri1 = Uri.fromFile(file1);
    intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, outputFileUri1);
    startActivityForResult(intent, IMAGE_CAPTURE);
    System.out.println(file1);

    Dbhelper helper = new Dbhelper(this);
    SQLiteDatabase db = helper.getWritableDatabase();
    db.execSQL("update alfamapp set gambar ='"+file+"',gambar1 ='"+file1+"' " +
                "where kdstore='"+helper.getKdStore(c)+"'");
    db.execSQL("insert into image (kdstore,image1) values ('"+helper.getKdStore(c)+"','"+file+"')");
    db.execSQL("update image set image2 ='"+file1+"' where kdstore='"+helper.getKdStore(c)+"'");
    db.close();
    helper.close();
    load();

    System.out.println(db);

}

and then this code to retrieve this image

if(helper.getGamb(c).equals("")){
        System.out.println("gamb kosong");
        detGam.setImageResource(R.drawable.gambarnf);

    }else detGam.setImageDrawable(Drawable.createFromPath(helper.getGamb(c)));

you have solution to my code??thank you very much 🙂

You can use onActivityResult for saving path after capturing photo.

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
    if( requestCode == IMAGE_CAPTURE && resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK) {
        DBHelper dbHelper = new DBHelper(this);
        SQLiteDatabase sql = dbHelper.getWritableDatabase();
        sql.execSQL("insert statement for inserting path to database");
        sql.close();
        dbHelper.close();
    }
}
