Hi,
I am developing an application that, as the first thing, puts all
lines from a txt-file to a sqlite database. There is about 100.000
words that should be added to the database, and this takes almost an
hour to do.
Is there a better way to do this, fx. to have a database in the res/
raw resources if it is possible.
This is my currently way to do it:

public void getWords(final Context context, final InputStream aFile) {
        try {
                  InputStreamReader reader = new InputStreamReader(aFile,
Charset.forName("UTF-8"));
                  BufferedReader input =  new BufferedReader(reader);
                  try {
                        DB = context.openOrCreateDatabase(DATABASE_NAME, 1, 
null);
                        DB.execSQL("DELETE FROM english");
                    String line = input.readLine();
                    int i = 0;
                    while (( line = input.readLine()) != null){
                        try {
                                DB.execSQL("INSERT OR IGNORE INTO english(word) 
VALUES
('" + line + "')");
                        }
                        catch (Exception e) {
                                Log.e("kaloer", e.getMessage());
                                        }
                        if(i % 100 == 0) {
                                                Log.d("progress", 
Integer.toString(i));
                                                try {
                                                        Thread.sleep(100);
                                                        } 
catch(InterruptedException e) {
                                                        }
                        }
                        i++;
                    }
                  } catch (IOException e) {
                                e.printStackTrace();
                        }
                  finally {
                         try {
                                        input.close();
                                } catch (IOException e) {
                                        e.printStackTrace();
                                }
                         DB.close();
                        }
                }
        return;

    }


Thank you very much,
