title: Simply populate database table names in Android ListView
body: <p>Very new to Android development...I've been scouring the internet for answers, but I'm still finding myself stuck and hoping someone can lend me a hand.  I absolutely admit I am a newbie...but trying to learn.</p>
  
  <p>I have an already populated sqlite database that I am including in a package.  I've copied this into the asset folder.  The database has 4 tables (and some fields beneath that).</p>
  
  <p>I have a simple activity with a listview that I am trying to simply query the database for the table names and have them populate, however I get no results.</p>
  
  <p>my DataBaseAdapter code is essentially the code from here:
  <a href="http://www.reigndesign.com/blog/using-your-own-sqlite-database-in-android-applications/" rel="nofollow">http://www.reigndesign.com/blog/using-your-own-sqlite-database-in-android-applications/</a></p>
  
  <p>I modified my database name and path.  </p>
  
  <p>My class code to call this is here: </p>
  
  <p>ON EDIT:::</p>
  
  <pre><code>public Cursor fetchAllNotes() {
  
      return myDbHelper.rawQuery("SELECT name FROM sqlite_master WHERE type='table'",
              new String[]{});
  }
  
  private void fillData() {
  
      Cursor c = fetchAllNotes();
      startManagingCursor(c);
  
      String[] from = new String[] {"name"};
      int[] to = new int[] {R.id.listview};
  
  
      SimpleCursorAdapter notes = 
              new SimpleCursorAdapter (this, R.layout.list_view, c, from, to);
      setListAdapter(notes);
  
              }
  
      }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The project runs, it just yields no results in the ListView (which is in an xml named lists.xml)  the portion of code is here:</p>
  
  <pre><code>        &lt;ListView
          android:id="@android:id/list"
          android:layout_width="match_parent"
          android:layout_height="wrap_content"
          android:layout_weight="1" /&gt;    
  
           &lt;TextView android:id="@android:id/empty"
             android:layout_width="match_parent"
             android:layout_height="match_parent"
             android:background="#000000"
             android:text="No data"
             style="@style/ButtonText"/&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Any help would be great, I'm sure I am flailing hard on my sql calls...but I am stuck.  </p>
