Understanding basic functionality

[Xodz]

Hi everyone,

I'm relatively new to this technology and before I dive in using it to create my first Java program I am wondering if it is capable of the following:

I have a java program that uses a database and constantly updates a Highscores.db file.

Instead of adjusting the current java program code - i'd like to rather create a new java program designed only to "get" information from Highscores.db and upon the get of certain information, puts an entry in its own database "points.db" ...

Will this technology help me sufficiently?

Thank you so much

That depends; Will the old program (the one the constantly updates Highscores.db) and the new program be running at the same time?

The reason I ask is because SQLite is quite limited when it comes to multiple processes concurrently updating and reading the same database.

  

Thank you so much
