java - Android Room @Delete with parameters

Question

I know I can't use DELETE in a query (that is a shame by the way), I will get the following error:

<i>Error:error: Observable query return type (LiveData, Flowable etc) can only be used with SELECT queries that directly or indirectly (via @Relation, for example) access at least one table.</i>

But I can't use @Delete(WHERE... xxx) So how do I delete a specific row by a parameter?

Answer 1

Actually, you can use @Query to perform a delete.

@Query("DELETE FROM users WHERE user_id = :userId")
abstract void deleteByUserId(long userId);

Extracted from Query javadoc:

UPDATE or DELETE queries can return void or int. If it is an int, the value is the number of rows affected by this query.
