Android Delete Query

I'm attempting to delete all rows in one table that do not have a corresponding ID in another table. Since apparently SQLite does not support joins in deletes I am trying to do something along these lines:

    DELETE FROM my_table WHERE my_id NOT IN (SELECT _id FROM my_table2);

However, I apparently can not use rawQuery since it returns a cursor so I have to use the delete function. I'm having some trouble getting this working. Here is the query I'm trying:

    mDb.delete("my_table", "my_id NOT IN ?", new String[]{"(SELECT _id FROM my_table2)"});

Thanks.

You shouldn't use a .rawQuery, as you stated, but you can use .execSQL() to accomplish it. I regularly use it for deletions myself.

I think the only way is to execute your select and dynamically combine your WHERE clause.
