sqlite:How to use in memory

Question

I am trying to store my data in memory

here is what i have right now

        //sq lite driver
        Class.forName("org.sqlite.JDBC");
        //database path, if it's new data base it will be created in project folder
        con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:sqlite:mydb.db");

         Statement stat = con.createStatement(); 

        stat.executeUpdate("drop table if exists weights");

        //creating table
       stat.executeUpdate("create table weights(id integer,"
       + "firstName varchar(30)," + "age INT," + "sex varchar(15),"
       + "weight INT," + "height INT,"
       + "idealweight INT, primary key (id));");

Now where should i put this statement[ ":memory:"] to store my this data in memory and the data should keep saved until i delete it .

Thanks

Try:

con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:sqlite::memory:");
