I have a database preloaded in SQLite: "BenedictusCoreData.sqlite".
I add it to the project in XCode.
I modify the BenedictusCoreData.xcdatamodeld to create the entities and attributes with the same name and type as the tables and columns of my sqlite preoloaded.
I run the app in the simulator without writing any additional code. I print the main bundle path and go to the sandbox of the application. And inside /Library/Application Support/ I find the three files: .sqlite .sqlite-shm .sqlite-wal
I open the .sqlite and obviously it is empty, however Xcode has created the tables and the columns with capital letters, adding "Z" to the tablenames and "Z" to the column names, appart from adding new tables "Z_METADATA" "Z_MODELCACHE", "Z_PRIMARYKEY".
At this point, I assume that it is not a good idea just to copy my sqlite from the bundle into the "Application Support" folder and rewrite the file, because the structure is totally different.
So I am lost about how to proceed in order to copy a sqlite preloaded database into CoreData the first time you open the app.
May be you can help me.
