How is advised to use the contentResolver's delete method to be injection safe?

You can delete with content resolver by URI or by passing some parameters to the where parameter.

How do you make the parameters to be SQL Injection Safe?
Is it possible to use Prepared Statements with ContentResolver?

act.getContentResolver().delete(myuriwithid,null,null);

act.getContentResolver().delete(mybaseuri," name = '"+this.name"'",null);
Solution

  • Use positional parameters.

    public final int delete (Uri url, String where, String[] selectionArgs)

    e.g.

    ContentResolver cr = ...;
String where = "nameid=?";
String[] args = new String[] { "george" };
cr.delete( Stuff.CONTENT_URI, where, args );
