Introduction to Database with Room

Stuttgart Media University

Please conduct the following tasks alone. For implementation details you can refer to the lecture slides or the Android developer website. Please do not hesitate to ask me or the tutor if you have any questions.

1 Tasks

  • Reuse your assignment3 code and copy it to assignment4 folder.
  • In your app gradle, increase compileSdk to 31 (should be 30 since Room dependency gives us errors with compileSdk 30)
  • Remove your MovieDb class from Assignment3.
  • Implement Room library to permanently save selected movies in database accross app starts-
  • Verify that selected movies are shown on app start in MainActivity / Fragment / RecyclerView

2 Movie Data

Use this data to fill out your rows:

title year actor
Dr. No 1962 Sean Connery
From Russia with Love 1963 Sean Connery
Goldfinger 1964 Sean Connery
Thunderball 1965 Sean Connery
