Automatically Create Database Adapter Java Code for Android Developers

I have written a web application which automatically creates a database adapter code in java for your Android application based on a text description of the database schema. This grew beyond its initial intentions and now spits out java code for each of the following:

package statement
necessary imports
class definition for the database adapter
database constants (name, version, TAG)
definitions of keys and tables with comments
create table strings
String[] full projection for each table
an inserter function for each table
an updater function for each table
basic database helper code with onCreate and onUpdate

In fact, if you just want inserts and updates then this should generate complete java code for your adapter. Just cut and paste your schema in, press the “do it” button and copy and paste your Android code into your application.

It’s housed on Google Apps, so may take a few seconds to get started the first time. <- click this to try it

Please give it a whirl and let me know if there are any problems.
