Remarks
The setVersion method was specified by an early draft of the Indexed Database specification. The method was removed from later drafts of the specification and is no longer supported.
To create object stores, indexes, and other IndexedDB objects, use the version parameter of the open method of the indexedDB property to generate an onupgradeneeded event.
