 public class SQLDemo extends Activity {     
   EventDataSQLHelper eventsData;     
   TextView output;     
   @Override     
   public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {     
          super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
     setContentView(R.layout.output);     
     output = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView1);     
     eventsData = new EventDataSQLHelper(this);     
     addEvent("Hello Android Event");     
     Cursor cursor = getEvents();     
     showEvents(cursor);     
   }       
   @Override     
   public void onDestroy() {     
     eventsData.close();     
   }     
   private void addEvent(String title) {     
     SQLiteDatabase db = eventsData.getWritableDatabase();     
     ContentValues values = new ContentValues();     
     values.put(EventDataSQLHelper.TIME, System.currentTimeMillis());     
     values.put(EventDataSQLHelper.TITLE, title);
     db.insert(EventDataSQLHelper.TABLE, null, values);
   }
   private Cursor getEvents() {
     SQLiteDatabase db = eventsData.getReadableDatabase();
     Cursor cursor = db.query(EventDataSQLHelper.TABLE, null, null, null, null,
         null, null);    
     startManagingCursor(cursor);
     return cursor;
   }
   private void showEvents(Cursor cursor) {
     StringBuilder ret = new StringBuilder("Saved Events:\n\n");
     while (cursor.moveToNext()) {
       long id = cursor.getLong(0);
       long time = cursor.getLong(1);
       String title = cursor.getString(2);
       ret.append(id + ": " + time + ": " + title + "\n");
     }
     output.setText(ret);
   }
 }

EventDataSQLHelper.java

 package com.dailynote;

    // Table name
    public static final String TABLE = "events";
    // Columns

            return;
        String sql = null;
        if (oldVersion == 1) 
            sql = "alter table " + TABLE + " add note text;";
        if (oldVersion == 2)
            sql = "";
        Log.d("EventsData", "onUpgrade  : " + sql);
        if (sql != null)
            db.execSQL(sql);
    }
 } 

Answer 1

public void onDestroy() {   
    super.onDestroy();
    eventsData.close();     
}

This is to be called because, Activity class in android does some cleanup by itself. When base class functions are overridden by the derived class that is the activity as done in case of onDestroy(), the base class function needs to be called explicitly to perform the expected operation.

Answer 2

I added this line and everything worked fine:

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

Added it to the first line in OnCreate() method.

Answer 3

 @Override     
   public void onDestroy() {   
  super.onDestroy()
     eventsData.close();     
   }
