I am sending an email to support.

I am not an enterprise, I need only for a personal project.  
I just want to make some simple queries from a Java application to a SQLite database created from android.  
An important point for me is that it is Open Source.

Sorry for my English.  
Thank you very much

Hi @rockdrigo

You might consider taking a look at the SQLCipher [command line client](https://www.zetetic.net/sqlcipher/introduction/), while it is not based on Java, it may fit your needs.
