Part 1
Create an instance function in the InventoryManager class called getDatabaseConnection. This function should
• Create a new database if it does not exist.
• Create the tables if they do not already exist. You will need to do some research to determine the best way to do this. There are a few different approaches. Google is your friend. You will need two tables - one for household items and the other for food items. It is up to you to choose appropriate data types and column names.
• Set the value of a Connection field in the InventoryManager object. Your other methods should use this connection object.
? Specifically, you should have this in your InventoryManager:
private Connection _conn;
Create a second function called populateDatabase that is called only if the database has not previously been populated with data. Hint: If you had to create the tables in the step above, you can be sure that the tables need to be populated! This function should create records in the database for food and household items. Use the items from the example inventory file.
Verifying Your Data
Visual tools are great for looking at your data to insure that your code is working correctly.
Eclipse has a plugin for SQLite that you can install. You might also one of these tools:

Complete the method load loadInventory() in the InventoryManager (there is a comment above it saying that it loads data from the database). In your main() function, replace the call the loadInventory("inventory.txt") with this call so that the data is loaded from the database instead of the file. If your code is correct, the output should be exactly the same as it was when you loaded the data from a file.
