Feature Request: Prepopulated DB

Solar2D Android
#1

I was doing some searching on workarounds to the issue of not being able to use a prepopulated db on android and found the following:

Logically, it sounds like it would work. I’m not sure if this is something that can be done from our side with code (I’ll play around with it once I get to the point where I’m trying to port my current project to Android), but if the code is relatively simple and works across Android versions, it should be easy to include inside the tools.

Corona includes sqlite support, and you can use a prepopulated database now as of the latest Corona release. I’ve updated our documentation to reflect that. [import]uid: 54 topic_id: 2721 reply_id: 8094[/import]

That’s very good to know. However, you’ll also want to touch up this page:

The second page states that Android does not support prepopulated devices. The NOTE: below the third paragraph seems state what you are talking about on how to make Android accept a prepopulated database, though the wording is a little unclear and it doesn’t clearly point to this being used for prepopulated DBs on Android.
