Android Question Updating SQL server database with JDBC.

I have done the jRDC2 B4J project and it works on the browser.
I now need the routines in B4A to create, select, update and delete records.
I have downloaded DbUtils, but it seems to be a B4J module and it needs jSQL and iSQL which are apparently not available for B4A.
Is there a link where I can find these routines for B4A?

Thanks

You can FOR SURE use a b4a client to connect to a jRDC2 server to fetch or request Data.
See the jRDC2 tutorials.

DonManfred, that is what I asked for. I have gone through many of them but could not find a suitable one.

i do not believe that!

Go over
again and follow the Client configuration carefully.

I have this query in my config.properties file:
Insert record:
sql.sendmessagefromsite=INSERT INTO messagesfromsite (datetime, fromuserno, message) VALUES (?, ?, ?);

I have this routine to insert a record:
Insert routine:
Sub InsertRecord (Name As String)
    DateTime.DateFormat="dd-MMM-yy"
    Dim cmd As DBCommand = CreateCommand("sendmessagefromsite",Array(DateTime.Now, "peka", edtMessage.text))
    Dim J As HttpJob = CreateRequest.ExecuteBatch(Array(cmd),Null)
    Wait for(J) jobdone(j As HttpJob)
    If J.Success Then 
        Log("Inserted successfully!")
    End If
    J.release
End Sub

Sub btnQuery3_Click
    If edtMessage.Text="" Then
        ToastMessageShow("First enter the message",True)
        Return
    End If
    InsertRecord("sendmessagefromsite")
End Sub

No insert happens in the database. What does the 'Name' parameter in InsertRecord(Name ... refer to?

Response error:
Invalid object name 'messagesfromsite (The table name). HTTP error 500. SQLServerException: The index 1 is out of range (The id is an autoincrement field)

you are not using it in the sub so i would expect nowhere
Response error:
As the error points out the 1st field in the db is an autoincrement value which you can not set.

sql.sendmessagefromsite=INSERT INTO messagesfromsite (datetime, fromuserno, message) VALUES (?, ?, ?);
change it to, for ex.

B4X:
sql.sendmessagefromsite=INSERT INTO messagesfromsite SET field_date=?, fieldFromUserno=?, fieldmessage=?;
this way you explicitely specify the fields you want to use in an exact order (your parameters need them)

Based on the errormessage i would guess the field datetime is a field with autoincrement = true?

In the jRDC2 server's config, are you connecting to the database that has the messagesfromsite table? Or are you connecting to the SQL server in such a way that you need to pre-pend the database name to the table name. So in the config.properties file, does
SQL:
sql.sendmessagefromsite=INSERT INTO messagesfromsite (datetime, fromuserno, message) VALUES (?, ?, ?);
need to be something like
SQL:
sql.sendmessagefromsite=INSERT INTO NAMEOFDATABASE.messagesfromsite (datetime, fromuserno, message) VALUES (?, ?, ?);
and with SQL server it may even be something like
SQL:
sql.sendmessagefromsite=INSERT INTO dbo.DATABASENAME.messagesfromsite (datetime, fromuserno, message) VALUES (?, ?, ?);

I do not understand this.


This is my URL in config.properties:
URL:
JDBCUrl=jdbc:sqlserver://192.168.1.10:1433;databaseName=IBMSphcc

I can append the database name if needs be.

I think DonManfred and OliverA are right or have valid points. The auto increment field is id, but I cannot put a ? and parameter for that. How do I handle it?
With this URL, do I need the prefix for the tables?

Thanks to both you guys. I appreciate it.

This is the query like it looks like now:
Query:
sql.sendmessagefromsite=INSERT INTO IBMSphcc.dbo.messagesfromsite (datetime, fromuserno, message) VALUES (?, ?, ?);

Here is the code error (It happens in HttpJob=Createrequest... in the routine above):

The invalid object name error seems to indicate that the table messagesfromsite does not exist. So a) it does not exist, b) the spelling of the table is slightly off (technically same as a), or c) the user you are using to log in with has no access rights to the table and therefore can’t see the table (this is a guess, since MS SQL might throw a different error message for this case)

Oliver, Thanks .. just a stupid mistake as always. I used the wrong field type.
