How do get SQLiteDatabase in GreenDao 3

Since the update to greenDao 3, statements like those do not work anymore:

getDatabase().insert(TABLENAME, null, values);
getDatabase().delete(...);
getDatabase().update(...);

The getDatabase() is a greenDao interface which doesn't have insert, delete and update methods. Thus, it gives me compile time errors. Anybody solved the issue?

The class you are getting back is org.greenrobot.greendao.database.Database, which is a database abstraction meant only for greenDAO. You have two options:

  1. You hold the reference to the original SQLiteDatabase and pass it to greenDAO during initialization.

  2. The Database abstraction class has a method getRawDatabase, which returns the underlying SQLiteDatabase. If you are not using encryption, it will be always android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase. You have to do a cast.
