WHERE IN clause in Android sqlite?

android, clause, database, sqlite, where-clause

Solution

You can use `TextUtils.join(",", parameters)` to take advantage of sqlite binding parameters, where `parameters` is a list with `"?"` placeholders and the result string is something like `"?,?,..,?"`.

Here is a little example:

Set<Integer> positionsSet = membersListCursorAdapter.getCurrentCheckedPosition();
List<String> ids = new ArrayList<>();
List<String> parameters = new ArrayList<>();
for (Integer position : positionsSet) {
    ids.add(String.valueOf(membersListCursorAdapter.getItemId(position)));
    parameters.add("?");
}
getActivity().getContentResolver().delete(
    SharedUserTable.CONTENT_URI,
    SharedUserTable._ID + " in (" + TextUtils.join(",", parameters) + ")",
    ids.toArray(new String[ids.size()])
);

Problem

I can't get WHERE IN clause to work on android SQLite database. Is there any way to execute a statement like this in android? : ``` SELECT body FROM table1 WHERE title IN ('title1', 'title2', 'title3') ```
