(1) getWritableDatabase();

(2)getReadableDatabase();

看看这两个方法官网的解释是怎样的：

<span style="font-size:24px;">/**

     * Once opened successfully, the database is cached, so you can call this
     * method every time you need to write to the database.  Make sure to call
     * {@link #close} when you no longer need it.
     *
     * <p>Errors such as bad permissions or a full disk may cause this operation
     * to fail, but future attempts may succeed if the problem is fixed.</p>

读读英文都知道（1）（2）方法都是返回一个可读可写的数据库【注意前提是磁盘空间不是满的】，如果磁盘空间是满的的话那就不一样了，如果磁盘是满的（1）方法就会抛出异常，（2）不会抛出异常而会放回一个只读的数据库，在未来的某一刻，如果磁盘的空间问题解决了，她就会返回一个刻度可写的数据库。

所以打开一个数据库的最佳方法是：

SQLiteDatabase db = null;

try{
db = mySQLiteOpenHelper.getWritableDatabase();
}catch(SQLiteException se){
db = mySQLiteOpenHelper.getReadableDatabase();
}
