Hi, If someone might need a way to send a sqlite db with the app and then to copy it to a directory such as /data/data/yourApp/databases, here is a fast way to do it:
Place the db file in the assets folder (this example can be found in: droiddraw.org | Tutorials | Third Party Tutorials by Omar F, or in http://coreintent.googlepages.com/ ) Use the following code: /** * Demonstration of styled text resources. */ public class assets extends Activity { @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle icicle) { super.onCreate(icicle); // See assets/res/any/layout/styled_text.xml for this // view layout definition. setContentView(R.layout.read_asset); try { // Open the file InputStream in = getAssets().open("psalmsdb"); // Open the output file String outFilename = "/data/data/com.assets/databases/ psalmsdb33"; OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(outFilename); // Transfer bytes from the input file to the output file byte[] buf = new byte[1024]; int len; while ((len = in.read(buf)) > 0) { out.write(buf, 0, len); } // Close the streams out.close(); in.close(); } catch (IOException e) { } AlertDialog.show(this, "mensaje",1, "finished", "Cancel", false); } } Cheers, Omar Flores. PS: Thanks to Zach Hobbs for pointing me in the right direction when I was looking for a way to include the db in the delivery package.
