Question

Please help me with following, I have a database which contain strings ( e.g. fotonames ).
And I want to read entire fotonames column into an arraylist.
How can I do this?

Answer 1

public Cursor getfotoname() throws SQLException
{
 String getRT = "SELECT fotonames from "+ TABLE_NAME+";";
 Cursor mCur = sqldb.rawQuery(getRT, null);
 return mCur;
}

Now when you call

Cursor mCursor=null;

mCursor= DatabaseObject.getfotoname();

ArrayList<WhateverTypeYouWant> mArrayList = new ArrayList<WhateverTypeYouWant>();
for(mCursor.moveToFirst(); mCursor.moveToNext(); mCursor.isAfterLast()) {
// The Cursor is now set to the right position
mArrayList.add(mCursor.getWhateverTypeYouWant(WHATEVER_COLUMN_INDEX_YOU_WANT));
}
