    <p>Can someone explain what the best way to insert a lot of data on the iPhone using FMDB is? I see things like using the beginTransaction command. I'm honestly not sure what this or setShouldCacheStatements do. I followed what code my coworker did so far, and this is what it looks like:</p> <pre><code>BOOL oldshouldcachestatements = _db.shouldCacheStatements; [_db setShouldCacheStatements:YES]; [_db beginTransaction]; NSString *insertQuery = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"INSERT INTO %@ values(null, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?);", tableName]; [tableName release]; BOOL success; bPtr += 2; int *iPtr = (int *)bPtr; int numRecords = *iPtr++; for (NSInteger record = 0; record &lt; numRecords; record++) { NSAutoreleasePool *pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init]; // Some business logic to read the binary stream NSNumber *freq = aFreq &gt; 0 ? [NSNumber numberWithDouble:100 * aFreq / 32768]: [NSNumber numberWithDouble:-1.0]; // these fields were calculated in the business logic section success = [_db executeUpdate:insertQuery, cID, [NSNumber numberWithInt:position], [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@%@", [self stringForTypeA:typeA], [self stringForTypeB:typeB]], // methods are switch statements that look up the decimal number and return a string [NSString stringWithFormat:@"r%i", rID], [self stringForOriginal:original], [self stringForModified:modified], freq]; [pool drain]; } [outerPool drain]; [_db commit]; [_db setShouldCacheStatements:oldshouldcachestatements]; </code></pre> <p>Is this the fastest I can do? Is the writing the limitation of sqlite? I saw this: <a href="http://www.sqlite.org/faq.html#q19" rel="noreferrer">http://www.sqlite.org/faq.html#q19</a> and wasn't sure if this implementation was the best with fmdb, or if there was any other thing I can do. Some other coworkers mentioned something about bulk inserts and optimziing that, but I'm not honestly sure what that means since this is my first sqlite encounter. Any thoughts or directions I can go research? Thanks!</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
