Android getReadableDatabase() 和 getWritableDatabase()

来自http://www.cnblogs.com/Free-Thinker/p/4331999.html
Android使用getWritableDatabase()和getReadableDatabase()方法都可以获取一个用于操作数据库的SQLiteDatabase实例。(getReadableDatabase()方法中会调用getWritableDatabase()方法)

其中getWritableDatabase() 方法以读写方式打开数据库，一旦数据库的磁盘空间满了，数据库就只能读而不能写，倘若使用的是getWritableDatabase() 方法就会出错。

getReadableDatabase()方法则是先以读写方式打开数据库，如果数据库的磁盘空间满了，就会打开失败，当打开失败后会继续尝试以只读方式打开数据库。如果该问题成功解决，则只读数据库对象就会关闭，然后返回一个可读写的数据库对象。

自己补充 Android SDK 21代码

 /**
     * Create and/or open a database that will be used for reading and writing.
     * The first time this is called, the database will be opened and
     * {@link #onCreate}, {@link #onUpgrade} and/or {@link #onOpen} will be
     * called.
     *
     * <p>Once opened successfully, the database is cached, so you can
     * call this method every time you need to write to the database.
     * (Make sure to call {@link #close} when you no longer need the database.)
     * Errors such as bad permissions or a full disk may cause this method
     * to fail, but future attempts may succeed if the problem is fixed.</p>
     *
     * <p class="caution">Database upgrade may take a long time, you
     * should not call this method from the application main thread, including
     * from {@link android.content.ContentProvider#onCreate ContentProvider.onCreate()}.
     *
     * @throws SQLiteException if the database cannot be opened for writing
     * @return a read/write database object valid until {@link #close} is called
     */

    /**
     * Create and/or open a database.  This will be the same object returned by
     * {@link #getWritableDatabase} unless some problem, such as a full disk,
     * requires the database to be opened read-only.  In that case, a read-only
     * database object will be returned.  If the problem is fixed, a future call
     * to {@link #getWritableDatabase} may succeed, in which case the read-only
     * database object will be closed and the read/write object will be returned
     * in the future.
