Warning : Do not hardcode "/data/"; use Context.getFilesDir().getPath() instead
The tip that eclipse gives you is not good enough.
You can get database path with context.getDatabasePath();You should pass the desired name to the file (no matter if it exists or not), in your case exampledb.sqlite
So your code will be:
File outFile =myContext.getDatabasePath(DATABASE_NAME);String outFileName =outFile.getPath() ;of course, myContext has to be the current context. This is for instance the running activity or service that is calling this.
Do as follows :
public DataBaseHelperClass(Context context) { super(context, DATABASE_NAME, null ,DATABASE_VERSION); this.myContext = context; //The Android's default system path of your application database. DB_PATH = myContext.getDatabasePath(DATABASE_NAME).getPath();}You will not get error or warning.
Just use the context of the activity/app for getting the path like:
Context c = getApplicationContext();c.getFilesDir().getPath();
