In this post I'm going to describe how we can read data from MySQL database and show them in a Android list view. To fetch data here I used a PHP script which encodes data into json format.
This project has three main parts.
1. MySQL database
2. PHP web service
3.Android web service client
1. MySQL database.
This part is bit complected. Android activity is a combination of Async Task json and list view. If you are not familiar with those stuff look following tutorials.
Add Internet permission to AndroidManifest.xml
Code for main activity layout.
运行结果如图所示:

1. MySQL database.
My database has only one table named "emp_info" and it has two columns. "employee name" and "employee no". "employee no" is the primary key.
2.PHP web service
Use following PHP script to fetch data from the database and to encode data in to json format.
<?php
$host = "localhost"; // replace with database hostname
$username = "root"; // replace with database username
$password = ""; // replace with database password
$db_name = "mysqlphp"; // replace with database name
$con = mysql_connect ( "$host", "$username", "$password" ) or die ( "cannot connect" );
mysql_select_db ( "$db_name" ) or die ( "cannot select DB" );
$sql = "select * from emp_info";
$result = mysql_query ( $sql );
$json = array ();
if (mysql_num_rows ( $result )) {
while ( $row = mysql_fetch_assoc ( $result ) ) {
$json ['emp_info'] [] = $row;
}
}
mysql_close ( $con );
echo json_encode ( $json );
?>
3.Android web service client.

Add Internet permission to AndroidManifest.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

package="com.example.mysqlphp"
android:versionCode="1"

</manifest>
Code for main activity layout.
