I'm getting my data ,with several similar methods, from sqlite3 file like in following code:
-(NSMutableArray *) getCountersByID:(NSString *) championID{
NSMutableArray *arrayOfCounters;
arrayOfCounters = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
@try {
NSFileManager *fileManager = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
NSString *databasePath = [[[NSBundle mainBundle] resourcePath ]stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"DatabaseCounters.sqlite"];
BOOL success = [fileManager fileExistsAtPath:databasePath];
if (!success) {
NSLog(@"cannot connect to Database! at filepath %@",databasePath);
}
else{
NSLog (@"SUCCESS getCountersByID!!");
}
if(sqlite3_open([databasePath UTF8String], &database) == SQLITE_OK){
NSString *tempString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"SELECT COUNTER_ID FROM COUNTERS WHERE CHAMPION_ID = %@",championID];
const char *sql = [tempString cStringUsingEncoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding];
sqlite3_stmt *sqlStatement;
int ret = sqlite3_prepare(database, sql, -1, &sqlStatement, NULL);
if (ret != SQLITE_OK) {
NSLog(@"Error calling sqlite3_prepare: %d", ret);
}
if(sqlite3_prepare_v2(database, sql, -1, &sqlStatement, NULL) == SQLITE_OK){
while (sqlite3_step(sqlStatement)==SQLITE_ROW) {
counterList *CounterList = [[counterList alloc]init];
CounterList.counterID = [NSString stringWithUTF8String:(char *) sqlite3_column_text(sqlStatement,0)];
[arrayOfCounters addObject:CounterList];
}
}
else{
NSLog(@"problem with database prepare");
}
sqlite3_finalize(sqlStatement);
}
else{
NSLog(@"problem with database openning %s",sqlite3_errmsg(database));
}
}
@catch (NSException *exception){
NSLog(@"An exception occured: %@", [exception reason]);
}
@finally{
sqlite3_close(database);
return arrayOfCounters;
}
//end
}
then i'm getting access to data with this and other similar lines of code:
myCounterList *MyCounterList = [[myCounterList alloc] init];
countersTempArray = [MyCounterList getCountersByID:"2"];
[countersArray addObject:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",(((counterList *) [countersTempArray objectAtIndex:i]).counterID)]];
I'm getting a lot of data like image name and showing combination of them that depends on users input with such code:
UIImage *tempImage = [UIImage imageNamed:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@_0.jpg",[countersArray objectAtIndex:0]]];
[championSelection setBackgroundImage:tempImage forState:UIControlStateNormal];
My problem:
When i'm run my app for some time and get a lot of data it throws error: " problem with database openning unable to open database file - error = 24 (Too many open files)"
My guess is that i'm opening my database every time when getCountersByID is called but not closing it.
My question:
Am i using right approach to open and close database that i use?
Similar questions that have not helped me to solve this problem:
unable to open database
Sqlite Opening Error : Unable to open database
UPDATE:
I made assumption that error is showing up because i use this lines of code too much:
NSFileManager *fileManager = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
NSString *databasePath = [[[NSBundle mainBundle] resourcePath ]stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"DatabaseCounters.sqlite"];
BOOL success = [fileManager fileExistsAtPath:databasePath];
and ending up with error 24.
So i made them global but sqlite3_errmsg shows same err 24, but app runs much faster now
I'll try to debug my app, see what happens
