3.3 KOTLIN IN ANDROID DEVELOPMENT

Kotlin is a popular programming language for Android app development. It was officially
endorsed by Google as a first-class language for Android development in 2017, and since then, it
has gained widespread adoption in the Android development community. Here's an overview of
Kotlin in Android development:

1. Conciseness and Readability: Kotlin is known for its concise and expressive syntax. It reduces
boilerplate code and makes code more readable, which can lead to increased developer
productivity and fewer errors.

2. Interoperability: Kotlin is fully interoperable with Java, which means you can use Kotlin and
Java code together in the same project without any issues. This makes it easier for developers to
transition from Java to Kotlin or work on projects that use both languages.

3. Null Safety: One of the most significant advantages of Kotlin is its built-in null safety features.
In Kotlin, you must explicitly declare whether a variable can be null or not, which helps prevent
null pointer exceptions, a common source of crashes in Android apps.

4. Extension Functions: Kotlin allows you to add functions to existing classes without modifying
their source code. This feature, called extension functions, is particularly useful for enhancing
existing Android framework classes.

5. Functional Programming: Kotlin supports functional programming features, such as higher-

order functions and lambdas, which can simplify asynchronous programming and make code
more concise.

6. Coroutines: Kotlin's native support for coroutines simplifies asynchronous programming in

Android. Coroutines make it easier to write asynchronous code that is both efficient and
readable.

7. Data Classes: Kotlin's data classes are concise and designed for defining classes that primarily
hold data. These classes automatically generate useful methods like `equals()`, `hash Code()`,
and `to String()`, which can simplify working with data in Android apps.

11 | Page
8. Smart Casts: Kotlin's type system is designed to be more expressive, which often leads to
more concise and safer code. Smart casts allow you to automatically cast a variable to a more
specific type when certain conditions are met.

9. Android KTX: Android KTX (Kotlin Extensions) is a set of Kotlin extensions designed to
improve the Android development experience. It provides Kotlin-friendly extensions for
common Android libraries and APIs, making code even more concise and readable.

10. Strong Community: Kotlin has a strong and active community of developers, which means
you can find plenty of resources, libraries, and support when working with Kotlin for Android
development.

To start using Kotlin for Android development, you'll need to install Android Studio (the official
IDE for Android development) and make sure you select Kotlin as the programming language
when creating a new Android project. You can then gradually migrate existing Java code to
Kotlin or start writing new code in Kotlin.

Overall, Kotlin has become the preferred choice for many Android developers due to its modern
features, improved safety, and enhanced developer experience compared to Java.

XML IN ANDROID PROJECT

XML stands for extensible Markup Language. It was designed to store and transport data. It is a text
based markup language derived from Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML). XML tags identify
the data and are used to store and organize the data, rather than specifying how to display it like HTML tags,
which are used to display the data. There are some advantages and disadvantages of using XML.

 Some Features of XML:-

 XML is platform independent and programming language independent, thus it can be used on
any system and supports the technology change when that happens.

 XML supports unicode. Unicode is an international encoding standard for use with different
languages and scripts, by which each letter, digit, or symbol is assigned a unique numeric value
that applies across different platforms and programs. This feature allows XML to transmit any
information written in any human language.

 The data stored and transported using XML can be changed at any point of time without
affecting the data presentation. Generally other markup language such as HTML is used for data
presentation, HTML gets the data from XML and display it on the GUI (graphical user interface),
once data is updated in XML, it does reflect in HTML without making any change in HTML GUI.

 XML allows validation using DTD and Schema. This validation ensures that the XML
document is free from any syntax error.

  XML simplifies data sharing between various systems because of its platform independent
nature. XML data doesn't require any conversion when transferred between different systems.

3.4 SQLITE DATABASE IN ANDROID

SQLite is a Structure query base database, open source, light weight, no network access and
standalone database. It support embedded relational database features.

SQLite is an open-source relational database i.e. used to perform database operations on android
devices such as storing, manipulating or retrieving persistent data from the database.

It is embedded in android by default. So, there is no need to perform any database setup or
administration task. SQ Lite Open Helper class provides the functionality to use the SQLite database in
Android studio. Basically SQLite does not validate datatypes by itself. In other words, whatever datatypes
are used, they are termed as valid.

3.5 DB BROWSER
 History of DB Browser:
DB Browser for SQLite, formerly known as "SQLite Database Browser," is an open-
source, visual tool used for creating, designing, and editing SQLite database files. SQLite is a
popular and embedded relational database management system, and DB Browser for SQLite
is designed to provide a user-friendly interface for working with SQLite databases. Here is a
brief history of DB Browser for SQLite:

1. Early Development: The project that would later become DB Browser for SQLite
started in the mid-2000s. The original project was called "SQLite Database Browser" and
was created by Mauricio Piacentini. It was initially developed to provide an easy-to-use
graphical interface for working with SQLite databases.

2.Open Source: The SQLite Database Browser project was open-sourced from the
beginning. This decision allowed the broader development community to contribute to its
improvement and expand its features.

3. Renaming to DB Browser for SQLite: In 2014, the project was renamed "DB
Browser for SQLite" to avoid potential confusion with the SQLite database engine itself. This

13 | Page
name change also helped emphasize its focus on being a dedicated tool for managing SQLite
databases.

4. Cross-Platform Support: DB Browser for SQLite was developed to be cross-

platform, with versions available for Windows, macOS, and various Linux distributions. This
broad platform support made it accessible to a wide range of users.

5. Community Contributions: Over the years, the project received contributions from
many developers worldwide. These contributions helped improve the tool's functionality, fix
bugs, and enhance the user interface.

6.Regular Updates: DB Browser for SQLite has been actively maintained and received
regular updates to keep it compatible with newer versions of SQLite and to incorporate user-
requested features.

7. User-Friendly Interface: The tool's interface was designed to be user-friendly and

intuitive, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced database developers. It
includes features like table creation, data manipulation, and the ability to run SQL queries.

8. Integration with Other Tools: DB Browser for SQLite is often used in conjunction
with various programming languages and frameworks that utilize SQLite as a backend
database. It is a helpful tool for examining and modifying the data stored in SQLite databases
used by applications.

9. Community Support: The project maintains an active online community where

users can seek help, report issues, and share their experiences with the tool. This community
support has contributed to its ongoing development and improvement.

DB Browser for SQLite continues to be a valuable resource for developers and

database administrators working with SQLite databases. Its history reflects its evolution from
a simple open-source project to a feature-rich and user-friendly tool that simplifies working
with SQLite databases on multiple platforms.
