Get last inserted value from sqlite database Android

Question

I am trying to get the last inserted rowid from a sqlite database in Android. I have read a lot of posts about it, but can\'t get one to work. This is my method:

Answer 1

/**
 * @return
 */
public long getLastInsertId() {
    long index = 0;
    SQLiteDatabase sdb = getReadableDatabase();
    Cursor cursor = sdb.query(
            "sqlite_sequence",
            new String[]{"seq"},
            "name = ?",
            new String[]{TABLENAME},
            null,
            null,
            null,
            null
    );
    if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
        index = cursor.getLong(cursor.getColumnIndex("seq"));
    }
    cursor.close();
    return index;
}
