android sqlite delete where clause

To delete data from an SQLite database in Android using Kotlin with a where clause, you can follow these steps:

  1. Create a writable instance of the database using the writableDatabase property.
  2. Define the table name and the where clause for the data you want to delete.
  3. Use the delete method on the writable database, passing in the table name, the where clause, and any parameters for the where clause if needed.

Here's an example of how you can achieve this:

val dbHelper = YourDbHelper(context)
val db = dbHelper.writableDatabase

val tableName = "your_table_name"
val whereClause = "column_name = ?"
val whereArgs = arrayOf("value_to_match")

db.delete(tableName, whereClause, whereArgs)

In this example, replace YourDbHelper with the actual name of your database helper class, your_table_name with the name of your table, column_name with the name of the column to match, and value_to_match with the specific value to match in the where clause.
