During an upgrade, I want to add a new table to my database, but also not lose the data from the other tables when upgrading the application. Can someone tell me, (but if you could show me some example also) of how this is done. Because I’ve looked through the forums but mainly there are discussions about adding a new column etc. I figured that I have to do it somehow with alter table, but I did not understand everything. If you can tell me the steps of this process I would really appreciate it. Thank u in advance.

    If you just want to add a new table and not modify any of your existing tables, then you could just create the new table in your onUpgrade method. This way your existing tables will be untouched.

    EDIT: Even better, add the table as usual in onCreate and then in onUpgrade you call onCreate
