Question

In my database there is table name “Projtable”. Project name contain 4 fields.
1. projct id = autoincrement (primary key)
2. projctname = varchar
3. projct_detail = varchar
4. order_id = int

now my insertion of projctname and projct_detail works perfectly.
I have to find maximum value of column for orderid.
How can i find this?

My code is :

-(void)insertProject:(Project *)projobj
{
//    next_orderid = next_orderid + 1;
//    projobj.orderid = next_orderid;

    NSLog(@" insert:: %@, %@, %d", projobj.outcome, projobj.projctname, projobj.orderid);
     sqlite3 *database;
    if (sqlite3_open([self.databasePath UTF8String] , &database) == SQLITE_OK)
    {
        const char *sql = "INSERT INTO proj_table (projctname, outcome, orderid) VALUES (?,?,?)";
        sqlite3_stmt *statement;
        statement = [self PrepareStatement:sql];

        int a1 = sqlite3_bind_text(statement, 1, [projobj.projctname UTF8String], -1, SQLITE_TRANSIENT);
        int a2 =  sqlite3_bind_text(statement, 2, [projobj.outcome UTF8String], -1, SQLITE_TRANSIENT);
       int a3= sqlite3_column_int( statement, 3);
        NSLog(@" integer :== %d",a3);
       // int a3 = sqlite3_bind_int(statement, 3, projobj.orderid);
            if (statement)
        {
            if (a1 != SQLITE_OK || a2 != SQLITE_OK || a3 != SQLITE_OK)
            {
                sqlite3_finalize(statement);
                return;
            }
            sqlite3_step(statement);
        }
        sqlite3_finalize(statement);
    }
}

result is 0

Answer 1

Use the SQL select statement

Select max(orderid) from proj_table;

you can then use the integer+1 as your next value.
