How could I implement a sub item where the item would have a parent to that of the same item. For example, I have a database that holds tasks/todos. Each todo has a title(TEXT
), completed(INTEGER
[1 if true, 0 if false]), and due date(TEXT
) column. I would like to add functionality to have subtasks, where a task could possibly have a parent task. How would I implement this in SQLite for Android? NOT IN SQL! So no foreign keys (triggers are allow, though)! Could I just have a separate table (subtask) and have a foreign key trigger to link subtask(INTEGER parent
) to task(INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT _id
)? Or should I add a column to my original task table(INTEGER parent
)? How could I implement this?
