Tools to help implementing SQLite based persistence for Android?

Do you know any tools that may help to implement basic SQLite-based persistence in an Android app? Or even tools that may ease the process of building content providers?

I've had quite a few projects, most of them saved persistent data into SQLite tables, some thru content providers. Mostly I needed basic CRUD operations, so the task to implement all this stuff was quite repetitve, and slow. I wondered if there are any eclipse plugins / standalone tools that could help with this?

By tedious tasks I mean things like: - Writing db schemas by hand - Administration when you need to put a new attribute into a table's schema (new string constants for the names, updating the modifier methods, etc.) - Generating basic CRUD methods for the db - Supporting these operations in a Content Provider - and so on

I think it'd be nice to have some graphical tool/wizard to help generate all this stuff.

Thanks
