> I would like to be able to access or create an SQLite database on SD card in android/WP7 or in the persistent storage in iOS. Currently I am working in Android, so I will limit the comments to Android for now.
> Looking at the android code for openDatabase call in Storage.java, I see that if the path of the DB is null, it is set to app-path. But there is no way to set the path of the DB or pass it in the call. It seems like an easy fix: we need a call to set the path to a string, or accept a FileEntry object as the database in the same openDatabase call.
> Here is the relevant part of the code:
> (Accessed from https://github.com/apache/incubator-cordova-android
>  as file: apache-incubator-cordova-android-2.0.0-16-g81ab0a4.zip)
> <<
>     public void openDatabase(String db, String version, String display_name,
>             long size) {
>         // If database is open, then close it
>         if (this.myDb != null) {
>             this.myDb.close();
>         }
>         // If no database path, generate from application package
>         if (this.path == null) {
>             this.path = this.cordova.getActivity().getApplicationContext().getDir("database", Context.MODE_PRIVATE).getPath();
>         }
>         this.dbName = this.path + File.pathSeparator + db + ".db";
>         this.myDb = SQLiteDatabase.openOrCreateDatabase(this.dbName, null);
>     }

> Please let me know if I am missing something. I am new to this stuff.
> Thanks and regards.
