I am learning Android. I have one Quote application with SQLite database. I need to give Database version to this application so Whenever I update application, users database also can be get updated. What changes I need to made in this ?
My database Helper/ Handler Class is like below.
public class DataBaseHandler extends SQLiteOpenHelper {
private static String DB_PATH;
private static String DB_NAME = "SuccessQuotesNew";
private SQLiteDatabase myDataBase;
private final Context myContext;
public DataBaseHandler(Context context) {
super(context, DB_NAME, null, 1);
this.myContext = context;
DB_PATH = context.getDatabasePath(DB_NAME).toString();
Log.e("path", DB_PATH);
}
public void createDataBase() throws IOException {
boolean dbExist = checkDataBase();
if (dbExist) {
} else {
this.getReadableDatabase();
try {
copyDataBase();
} catch (IOException e) {
throw new Error("Error copying database");
}
}
}
// ==============================================================================
private boolean checkDataBase() {
SQLiteDatabase checkDB = null;
try {
String myPath = DB_PATH;
checkDB = SQLiteDatabase.openDatabase(myPath, null, SQLiteDatabase.OPEN_READONLY);
} catch (SQLiteException e) {
}
if (checkDB != null) {
checkDB.close();
}
return checkDB != null ? true : false;
}
private void copyDataBase() throws IOException {
InputStream myInput = myContext.getAssets().open(DB_NAME);
String outFileName = DB_PATH;
OutputStream myOutput = new FileOutputStream(outFileName);
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
int length;
while ((length = myInput.read(buffer)) > 0) {
myOutput.write(buffer, 0, length);
}
myOutput.flush();
myOutput.close();
myInput.close();
}
// ==============================================================================
public void openDataBase() throws SQLException {
// Open the database
String myPath = DB_PATH;
myDataBase = SQLiteDatabase.openDatabase(myPath, null, SQLiteDatabase.OPEN_READONLY);
}
// ==============================================================================
@Override
public synchronized void close() {
if (myDataBase != null)
myDataBase.close();
super.close();
}
// ==============================================================================
@Override
public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
}
// ==============================================================================
@Override
public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {
}
}
