WebSQL Works Fine on Android?
Hey Joe,
I started working on the documentation for WebSQL options on Android, and
I've now found myself in the state where it seems window.openDatabase()
works fine on my devices without any plugins.
I swear I saw it failing before, but now I'm wondering if it was just the
"can't open multiple databases" bug I was seeing.
We have an autotest the runs openDatabase(), so I think this means it must
work fine, and we should just get rid of the new websql plugin.
Does this sound right to you?
Andrew

I shipped the Honeycomb device down to SF. I wouldn't worry about it
because we don't support Honeycomb.

I returned all of my devices when I switched companies. Possibly Bryce
still has one kicking around that exhibits the problem.

Thanks Simon,
I fixed a bug today that caused openDatabase to fail when the DB name
changed (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5193). After the change,
I can't get WebSQL to fail on any of my ICS devices, nor in the Honeycomb
simulator. So... I wonder if it might fix the Honeycomb case as well. If
you have any device that used to fail, I'd be curious if the change fixes
it.

Well window.openDatabase should work fine with no plugins on most versions
of Android. Various releases like Honeycomb IIRC broke WebSQL and that is
where we needed to monkey patch it.
