Can we use union of two sqlite databases with same tables for Core Data?
- by Tofrizer
Hi All,
I have an iPhone Core Data app with a pre-populated sqlite "baseline" database. Can I add a second smaller sqlite database with the same tables as my pre-populated "baseline" database but with additional / complementary data such that Core Data will happily union the data from both databases and, ultimately, present to me as if it was all a single data source?
Idea that I had is:
1) the "baseline" database never changes.
2) I can download the smaller "complementary" sqlite database for additional data as and when I need to (I'm assuming downloading sqlite database is allowed, please comment if otherwise).
3) Core Data is then able to union data from 1 & 2. I can then reference this unified data by calling my defined Core Data managed object model.
Hope this makes sense.
Thanks in advance.
