Unable to use getInt() but able to use getString() for a sqlite database
- by mwrazam
I am using a cursor to access a sqlite database I have in my app.
I am having trouble using the .getInt() on my database. My database is pre-created, and I have a few cursors that perform queries to interface with the information. Several of the columns in one of the tables are set as INTEGER type. I realize that sqlite has no built in check to make sure columns are indeed INT. However, when retrieving the data, I can use the .getString() function without any issues, but calling .getInt() causes the app to crash. Below is the relevant code. If I am missing anything, please let me know, and I'll add it in.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.
Cursor:
public Cursor getSkitStats(int module, int skit) {
Cursor mCursor = myDataBase.rawQuery("SELECT * FROM score WHERE mod="+module+" AND skit="+skit+"", null);
if (mCursor != null) {
mCursor.moveToFirst();
}
return mCursor;
}
and I am using a simple Toast call to output the result of the query:
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), scoreContent.getInt(0), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
The variable scoreContent is the cursor.
And here is the crash output:
