Room - Usando SQLites externos, bem como DB interno

O que precisamos:

Precisamos ser capazes de anexar os bancos de dados externos ao Room-Database interno sem alterar o caminho em que estão armazenados. Após adicioná-los, queremos poder usar os bancos de dados com os objetos Room Entity, Dao e Database. Existe alguma maneira possível de conseguir isso?

@Query("SELECT * FROM AllUsers")
List<AllUsers> getAllAllUsers();

@SkipQueryVerification
@Query("SELECT * FROM other.AllUsers")
List<AllUsers> getOtherAllAllUsers();

    mLPDB = Room.databaseBuilder(this,LoanPaymentDatabase.class,"mydb").allowMainThreadQueries().build();
    mLPDB_DAO = mLPDB.mDao();

    mOtherDB = Room.databaseBuilder(this,LoanPaymentDatabase.class,OtherDatabaseHelper.DBNAME).allowMainThreadQueries().build();
    mOtherDAO = mOtherDB.mDao();

• Observação é claro que o acima assume que o esquema é complementar (não necessariamente exato).

Não necessariamente exato?

Você precisa migrar os dados para a própria sala primeiro.

• 
  Jogando um pouco, você pode contornar a ter que migrar enganando room definindo user_version como 0. Nesse caso, Room define o número da versão (teste limitado). No entanto, não tenho certeza do que GreenDao ou seu servidor fariam com isso (sua lição de casa).
  
• 
  Meu teste limitado foi para um problema comum ao migrar o de ter uma coluna com INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, ou seja, sem AUTOINCREMENT. Room, se migrar, reclamará que a incompatibilidade do esquema. Então eu intencionalmente não codifiquei AUTOINCREMENT, configurei user_version para 0 e não tive reclamações ao acessar o banco de dados via Room. Também usou um tipo de coluna de rumplestilskin e nenhuma reclamação.
  

• Também tentei adicionar uma coluna não definida na Entidade e usar os resultados acima sem reclamar (esses testes devem ser óbvios no código abaixo).

Juntando tudo

1. 
   Cria e preenche o outro banco de dados (não-room) (se não existir) para teste. Configurando user_version (versão do banco de dados no Android talk) como 0.
   
2. 
   Cria, se necessário, a versão Room do banco de dados.
   
3. Adiciona algumas linhas à versão Room.
4. Exibe os dados da versão da sala para o registro.
5. Cria um RoomDatabase alternativo usando o outro banco de dados.
6. Exibe os dados no outro banco de dados via Room.
7. Anexa o outro banco de dados para a versão do Room.
8. Exibe os dados de ambos por meio do Roomdatabase original, acessando o outro anexado banco de dados por meio de interfaces DAO adicionais que incluem outros.???? .
