Question

Table fields:

_id, street, house_nr

query:

mDb.query(DATABASE_TABLE, new String[] {KEY_ROWID, KEY_STREET_NAME,
                KEY_HOUSE_NUMBER}, null, null, null, null, KEY_ROWID + " DESC");

SimpleCursorAdapter:

    Cursor c = mDbHelper.fetchAllRows();
    startManagingCursor(c);

    String[] from = new String[] { HistoryDbAdapter.KEY_STREET_NAME};
    int[] to = new int[] { R.id.text1 };

    SimpleCursorAdapter entries =
        new SimpleCursorAdapter(this, R.layout.history_row, c, from, to);
    setListAdapter(entries);

How to add one combined string from two db fields into R.id.text1 to show full address.

example:

street = "Android street"
house_nr = "911"

then:

R.id.text1 = "Android street 911"

thanks

Answer 1

There are two ways:

• Concat both column names in the query: KEY_STREET_NAME + ” || ” + KEY_HOUSE_NUMBER. I would use a rawQuery then.

• Use a custom adapter.
