I was doing this code lab https://developer.android.com/codelabs/android-room-with-a-view-kotlin#13 and having a question
class WordsApplication : Application() {
// No need to cancel this scope as it'll be torn down with the process
val applicationScope = CoroutineScope(SupervisorJob())
// Using by lazy so the database and the repository are only created when they're needed
// rather than when the application starts
val database by lazy { WordRoomDatabase.getDatabase(this, applicationScope) }
val repository by lazy { WordRepository(database.wordDao()) }
}
private class WordDatabaseCallback(
private val scope: CoroutineScope
) : RoomDatabase.Callback() {
override fun onCreate(db: SupportSQLiteDatabase) {
super.onCreate(db)
INSTANCE?.let { database ->
scope.launch {
var wordDao = database.wordDao()
// Delete all content here.
wordDao.deleteAll()
// Add sample words.
var word = Word("Hello")
wordDao.insert(word)
word = Word("World!")
wordDao.insert(word)
// TODO: Add your own words!
word = Word("TODO!")
wordDao.insert(word)
}
}
}
}
this is the code I found, as you can see, it is directly calling scope.launch(...) my question is that: isn't all the Room operations supposed to run in non-UI scope? Could someone help me to understand this? thanks so much!
