Question

In android, how can get I get a value (that is of type integer) from EditText and insert it into database that has a integer field?

I am using the below code but it doesn’t save integer data into database!

EditText Price;
name = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.txt_GoodsName);
Price = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.txt_Price);
db.insertQuote(name.getText().toString(),Price.getText());

// ----------------------------------------------------------

public long insertQuote(String Quote,int Price1) 
{
    ContentValues initialValues = new ContentValues();
    initialValues.put(GoodName, Quote);
    initialValues.put(Price, Price1);
    return db.insert(DATABASE_TABLE, null, initialValues);
}

Answer 1

use

db.insertQuote(name.getText().toString(),Integer.valueOf(Price.getText().toString()));

or

db.insertQuote(name.getText().toString(),new Integer(Price.getText().toString()));

instead of

 db.insertQuote(name.getText().toString(),Price.getText());

because db.insertQuote(String,Integer) accept second parameter as Integer not as String.
