Update a Database in Android Application

Update a Database in Android Application

When you need to modify a subset of your database values, use the update() method.
Updating the table combines the content values syntax of insert() with the where syntax of delete().

SQLiteDatabase db = mDbHelper.getReadableDatabase();
// New value for one column
ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
values.put(FeedReaderContract.FeedEntry.COLUMN_NAME_TITLE, title);
// Which row to update, based on the ID
String selection = FeedReaderContract.FeedEntry.COLUMN_NAME_ENTRY_ID + " LIKE ?";
String[] selectionArgs = { String.valueOf(rowId) };
int count = db.update(
    FeedReaderDbHelper.FeedEntry.TABLE_NAME,
    values,
    selection,
    selectionArgs);
