I have a database that I have already populated locally. I want to bundle it with my applications and access it at runtime (never want to re-write it anywhere, nor write to the database, simply read). What is the path of a file that I have added to the bundle? And, can i use that path with a SQLiteDatabase.openDatabase ?

I plan to bundle an xml data file that has all the metadata required by the application. When my app loads for the first time, the xml data file is read and local database is created and populated. This xml file is a crucial part of my app and it holds at least 100k entries. I don't want this data to be compromised.
Is there a way to encrypt this data file so that the file is unreadable in case someone opens the .apk file and extracts the data file.
I want to add a big feature to an application i am developping, but as this feature interest few people and is quite independant from the main part, I would like to put that in a seperate "plugin" application.Does anyone knows any design patterns, snippets, "reference" examples about such design?In particular that separate plugin application should be able to access some tables in the main application DB. Is it possible to do that without broadcast receiver? - the main application uses a TabActivity: is it possible that a the tabactivity instanciates an Intent Activity that is part of the plugin? - does the plugin can access main application preferences (not sure this would be necessary, but better to anticipate the question!) is it possible from the plugin to access main applications ressources?At least the 2 first points are mandatory for me.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI use a sqlite database in my project. The stored data in it must not be available for the user to edit. As I've read here I saw that if you have root access you can alter sqlite database. The only solution would be to encrypt database content, but this would be time consuming for device. Any solution to prevent access to database ?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an application with several tables, each being updated by AsyncTask fired by different Activities and used by UI with SimpleCursorAdapter. Though i am not developping a game, I would like to avoid to interrupt the user as mush as possible. Has SQLite is not multiaccess proof, what is the best way of handling such situation?
- I consider adding lock from each DB open and to each close sequence but this seems quite subject to bugs - The solution i am using now is that each DB access (read/write) is done in UI thread (when AsyncTask completes, DB write is done typically in onPostExecute), but that means user is blocked for several seconds during the DB write.
Is there any better solution for that? Should i use a ContentProvider? when i read "Content providers store and retrieve data and make it accessible to all applications", this does not seems to be what i need. Any idea?
So far we have developed apps in android that create database on runtime. We like to know how can we access a pre-built or existing database/sqlite file in our android app?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI already found out that there is no way to bundle files in an .apk and have them on /sdcard, the best option so far being to download the large files upon first run. I came accross a tutorial saying how to bundle an sqlite db with the apk and then copy it so that it can be accessed with SQLiteDatabase (thus doubling the space needed, and not using /sdcard at all).
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/data/data-storage.html#db says all databases MUST be in /data/data/package_name/databases.
Is that really so? Is there a way to trick the framework into opening a database that is placed on the /sdcard partition? Is there a way to use another SQLite java wrapper/framework to access such databases?
If the answer to the above is 'No', what other options do I have? My data is very well represented in a relational model, but is just too big, plus, I want to be able to update it without the need to reinstall/upgrade the entire app.
I'm developing an Android application with a database. That database will have more than three tables. Now I'm working on a class called DBAdapter to access the SQLite Database. DBAdpater will have five methods for every table on database (insertEntry, removeEntry, getAllEntries, getEntry and updateEntry). So, if I have five table, DBApadter will have more than twenty-five methods. I think is so huge. How may DBAdapter classes should be?
