Android SQLite Update not working

Question

I am trying to update one column for any number of rows.

Here is the function:

public void setAwardsSyncComplete(String[] ids) {

    String inArray         


        

Answer 1

I think there is a problem on your update..

You need to loop your array and update each one by one..

    private int _rowsAffected;

    foreach (var a in inArray)
    {

    _rowsAffected= db.update(TABLE, contentValues, COL_ID + " = (" + a +")", null);

    }

    db.Commit();
    db.setTransactionSuccussful(); 


if(_rowsAffected > 0)
//Success

Answer 2

As you're using transactions, you need to call db.setTransactionSuccessful(); at the end of the try clause. Without this, the update gets rolled back.

See SQLiteDatabase.beginTransaction

Hope this helps,

Answer 3

there's no explicit boolean type in sqlite tables? what data type is the COL_SYNED column you are trying to update?

and you will need to call db.setTransactionSuccussful()

Answer 4

You need to call db.setTransactionSuccussful() after db.update otherwise any changes will be rolled back when you call endTransaction().
