Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:                                              *
  * Application developers who wish to interchange between       *
  * JSONStore and CloudantSync without worrying about dependency *
  * issues.                                                      *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *
  * JSONStore uses SQLCipher 2.1 which is incompatible with      *
  * SQLCipher used in CloudantSync.                              *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  * -                                                            *
  ****************************************************************
  

Problem conclusion

• Worklight-android-native is no longer dependent on JSONStore
  which is now its own component. When an application developer
  enables JSONStore in an app it will deploy SQLCipher 2.1 and
  when JSONStore is removed it will remove SQLCipher 2.1 allowing
  the application developer to use his/her own SQLCipher version.
