I have a database from an existing android app that I need to import into my Windows Phone 8 app. Is the only way to do this to create some huge population script to be ran on the first loading of the app?
I am currently using the new sqlite-net-wp8 by Peter Huene as directed by this blog post. But the examples are all about creating the database, not using an existing one. Any help would be great.
This link shows how to copy an existing sqlite database in Windows 8. The ability to do it on a phone is the same.
1) Add the sqlite database into your project and set the type to content in its properties.
2) When your app loads, load the file into a storage file. Then write it back out using the localfolder as the destination.
