Default Re: Does an app update overwrite all files?

I'm guessing that it works the way xcode does when putting a new version on the device... which is that it does not delete the existing files... unless the application is first deleted.

So... what I'm planning on doing for updates... is to check a small file that has the database version... if it's newer than the one in my "Documents" folder... then I'll export user data... copy over the database... and import the user data to the new one.

I'm not sure... but that would be the sensible way to do it.
