I'm a little bit confused about onUpgrade. I'm developing my app and in the proces of developing I did changed the DATABASE_VERSION
five times so it is 6 now.
Everything was going smoothly till I totaly uninstalled application from my phone and builded it again. Since then I'm getting errors that none of my tables that I'm asking to are existing...
I think that now, when my DATABASE_VERSION
in project is set to 6 and newly installed app gets it on 6 at start, onUpgrade()
is not called.
Question is how to provide all my queries set in onUpgrade method for new instalations?
I know that onUpgrade()
is called whatever the getWritableDatabase()
is called. But my app crashes on this lane:
Cursor spinner_cursor = db.rawQuery("SELECT value1 AS _id, value2 FROM tab2", null);
Which is preceded by lane:
SQLiteDatabase db = new DBHelper(this).getWritableDatabase();
I am getting this error in logCat:
no such table: car (code 1): , while compiling: SELECT value1 AS _id, value2 FROM tab2
my DBHelper.class looks like
public class DBHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper {
private static final String DATABASE_NAME = "DataBase1";
private static final int DATABASE_VERSION = 6;
private static final String CREATE_QUERY =
"CREATE TABLE tab1 (id, value1, value2, etc)";
private static final String QUERY_2 =
"CREATE TABLE tab2 (id, value1, value2, etc)";
private static final String QUERY_3 =
"CREATE TABLE tab3 (id, value1, value2, etc)";
private static final String QUERY_4 =
"ALTER TABLE tab2 ADD COLUMN value3 VARCHAR(10) NULL";
private static final String QUERY_5 =
"ALTER TABLE tab2 ADD COLUMN value4 VARCHAR(10) NULL";
private static final String QUERY_6 =
"ALTER TABLE tab2 ADD COLUMN value5 VARCHAR(10) NULL";
private static final String QUERY_7 =
"ALTER TABLE tab3 ADD COLUMN value3 VARCHAR(10) NULL";
private static final String QUERY_8 =
"ALTER TABLE tab3 ADD COLUMN value4 VARCHAR(10) NULL";
private static final String QUERY_9 =
"ALTER TABLE tab3 ADD COLUMN value5 VARCHAR(10) NULL";
private static final String QUERY_10 =
"ALTER TABLE tab3 ADD COLUMN value6 VARCHAR(10) NULL";
private static final String QUERY_11 =
"ALTER TABLE tab3 ADD COLUMN value7 VARCHAR(10) NULL";
private static final String QUERY_12 =
"DROP TABLE tab3";
private static final String QUERY_13 =
"CREATE TABLE tab3 (id, value1, value2, etc)";
public DBHelper(Context context){
super(context, DATABASE_NAME, null, DATABASE_VERSION);
Log.e("DATABASE OPERATIONS", "Database created / opened");
}
@Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
db.execSQL(CREATE_QUERY);
}
@Override
public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {
if (oldVersion < 3) {
db.execSQL(QUERY_2);
db.execSQL(QUERY_3);
db.execSQL(QUERY_4);
db.execSQL(QUERY_5);
db.execSQL(QUERY_6);
}
if (oldVersion < 4) {
db.execSQL(QUERY_7);
db.execSQL(QUERY_8);
db.execSQL(QUERY_9);
db.execSQL(QUERY_10);
}
if (oldVersion < 5){
db.execSQL(QUERY_11);
}
if (oldVersion < 6){
db.execSQL(QUERY_12);
db.execSQL(QUERY_13);
}
Thanks in advance!
