LiteDB Studio corrupts the litedb database #5

Open HolyOne opened 4 years ago

HolyOne commented 4 years ago

I have a .net core app generated litedb file. (LiteDB package version 4.1.4)

When I open it with LiteDBStudio, i can see all tables, make queries.

I close LiteDB Studio, I see the database file size is changed. (old one is stored as backup)

After I open my application again, it says "Datafile is not a LiteDB database"

The files showing the one after and before I open the database are attached

data.zip data-backup.zip

Hi @HolyOne, when you first open your datafile in LiteDB Studio, this file are upgraded into new file format (used in LiteDB v5). After this, you can't back to v4 format.

I think this process should be confirmed by user on db load.
