appendEscapedSQLString

Added in API level 1
open static fun appendEscapedSQLString(
    sb: StringBuilder!,
    sqlString: String!
): Unit

Appends an SQL string to the given StringBuilder, including the opening and closing single quotes. Any single quotes internal to sqlString will be escaped. This method is deprecated because we want to encourage everyone to use the "?" binding form. However, when implementing a ContentProvider, one may want to add WHERE clauses that were not provided by the caller. Since "?" is a positional form, using it in this case could break the caller because the indexes would be shifted to accomodate the ContentProvider's internal bindings. In that case, it may be necessary to construct a WHERE clause manually. This method is useful for those cases.

Parameters
sb StringBuilder!: the StringBuilder that the SQL string will be appended to
sqlString String!: the raw string to be appended, which may contain single quotes

appendSelectionArgs

open static fun appendSelectionArgs(

open static fun bindObjectToProgram(
    prog: SQLiteProgram!,

): Unit

Binds the given Object to the given SQLiteProgram using the proper typing. For example, bind numbers as longs/doubles, and everything else as a string by call toString() on it.
