Hey Guys,
Just wanted to ask the community here if they know why android doesn't normally recommend packaging a pre-populated db with the app. Almost all the examples i have seen are around creating DB on app load which is counter intuitive. The dictionary example has everything in a text file and then creates a db at runtime.
Is there a reason for this? Are their any performance implications of bundling a pre-populated DB? How can we achieve this?
