DatabaseConnector Method updateContact

Method updateContact (Fig. 8.54) is similar to method insertContact, except that it calls SQLiteDatabase’s update method (line 76) to update an existing contact. The update method’s third argument represents a SQL WHERE clause (without the keyword WHERE) that specifies which record(s) to update. In this case, we use the record’s row ID to update a specific contact.
