I always thought that locks would only block actual operations on a database, but in Android it seems that you can't even open a database with an exclusive lock;
E/Database( 596): CREATE TABLE android_metadata failed E/Database( 596): Failed to setLocale() when constructing, closing the database E/Database( 596): android.database.sqlite.SQLiteException: database is locked E/Database( 596): at android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase.native_setLocale(Native Method) E/Database( 596): at android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase.setLocale(SQLiteDatabase.java: 1751) E/Database( 596): at android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase.<init>(SQLiteDatabase.java: 1701) E/Database( 596): at android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase.openDatabase(SQLiteDatabase.java: 739) Is this just the way of things? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
