[android-developers] Re: Simple database form example

I understand your point, but those types of framework are why there is so many poorly written and poorly performing applications. Most of those produce bloated applications because they handle everything, even the stuff you aren't using.

What you are talkind about doing is fairly simple and wouldn't take more than about 30 mins to write. You can "draw" a layout in Eclipse and it will give you view ID's.  A simple set of findViewById and some setText is not exactly hard or time consuming. There is also a very easy way to compile fields and update a database record.

You can also look at Preferences:

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/preference/Preference.html

They have some already built UI code for changing preferences, but can also be told not to be persistent and used for standard input.

Just for the record, Delphi or the Apple dev framewiork do not
generate edit dialog, they rather do the opposite.

You "draw" your dialog, "bind" widgets to your data(source) and the
rest of it is automated.

You have actually 0 line of code to write to do a simple DB edit form,
even a master-detail from, just draw the page.
