import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase.CursorFactory;

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

 SQLiteHelper helper;
 Context context;
 String DBName;
 CursorFactory factory = null;
 int version = 1;

 @Override
 protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
  setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
  context = this;
  DBName = "MyDBname";
  helper = new SQLiteHelper(context, DBName, factory, version);
  helper.createTable("MyFirstTable", new String[] { "id", "name" },
    new String[] { "INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT", "TEXT" });

    "name", "mark" }, new String[] { "name", "mark" },
    new String[] { "Text", "Number" }, new String[] { "Gunaseelan",
      "98" }));
  System.out.println(helper.executeQuery("Select * from MyFirstTable"));
 }
