android - When is SQLiteOpenHelper onCreate() / onUpgrade() run? -

-

i create tables in sqliteopenhelper oncreate() receive

sqliteexception: no such table

or

sqliteexception: no such column

errors. why?

note:

(this amalgamated summary of tens of similar questions every week. attempting provide "canonical" community wiki question/answer here questions can directed reference.)

sqliteopenhelper oncreate() , onupgrade() callbacks invoked when database opened, example call getwritabledatabase(). database not opened when database helper object created.

sqliteopenhelper versions database files. version number int argument passed constructor. in database file, version number stored in pragma user_version.

oncreate() run when database file did not exist , created. if oncreate() returns (doesn't throw exception), database assumed created requested version number. implication, should not catch sqlexceptions in oncreate() yourself.

onupgrade() called when database file exists stored version number lower requested in constructor. onupgrade() should update table schema requested version.

when changing table schema in code (oncreate()), should make sure database updated. 2 main approaches:

  1. delete old database file oncreate() run again. preferred @ development time have control on installed versions , data loss not issue. ways to delete database file:

    • uninstall application. use application manager or adb uninstall your.package.name shell.

    • clear application data. use application manager.

  2. increment database version onupgrade() invoked. more complicated more code needed.

    • for development time schema upgrades data loss not issue, can use execsql("drop table if exists <tablename>") in remove existing tables , call oncreate() recreate database.

    • for released versions, should implement data migration in onupgrade() users don't lose data.

i'm attempting write python 2/3 compatible routine fetch csv file, decode latin_1 unicode , feed csv.dictreader in robust, scalable manner. for python 2/3 support, i'm using python-future including imporing open builtins , , importing unicode_literals consistent behaviour i'm hoping handle exceptionally large files spilling disk, using tempfile.spooledtemporaryfile i'm using io.textiowrapper handle decoding latin_1 encoding before feeding dictreader this works fine under python 3. the problem textiowrapper expects wrap stream conforms bufferediobase . unfortunately under python 2, although have imported python 3-style open , vanilla python 2 tempfile.spooledtemporaryfile still of course returns python 2 cstringio.stringo , instead of python 3 io.bytesio required textiowrapper . i can think of these possible approaches: wrap python 2 cstringio.stringo python 3-style io.bytesio . i'm not sure how approach - need write such wrapper or 1 ex
