Android SQLite Example with Spinner

To perform the operations on the SQLite, the SQLiteOpenHelper class needs to be extended. In the DatabaseHandler class, the onCreate() and onUpgrade() methods of SQLiteOpenHelper class are overridden. It provides additional methods to insert and display the labels or data.

Android SQLite Spinner Example:

In the below example, we are using the SQLite database to add and display the string content on the spinner. Here, a label is added on a button click. All the added labels are displayed on the spinner.

activity_main.xml:

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

    android:layout_height="match_parent"

    <EditText
        android:id="@+id/input_label"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"

        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
        android:layout_marginTop="46dp"
        android:hint="Name"

    <Button

        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
        android:layout_marginTop="67dp"
        android:text="Add Name" />
 
    <Spinner
        android:id="@+id/spinner"

        android:layout_height="wrap_content"

        android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
        android:layout_below="@+id/btn_add"

</RelativeLayout>
