How to store sparsearray in bundle

问题:

I have a SparseArray<myObject> and want to store it in bundle in onSaveInstanceState method in my activity and restore it in oncreate. I found putSparseParcelableArray method for put SparseArray in bundle and did this in onSaveInstanceState method:

bundle.putSparseParcelableArray("mySparseArray", mySparseArray);

But eclips shows this error:

The method putSparseParcelableArray(String, SparseArray<? extends Parcelable>) in the type Bundle is not applicable for the arguments (String, SparseArray<myObject>)

And the quick fix is casting argument mySparsArray to SparseArray<? extends Parcelable>, but if I do so and get it in onCreate method:

mySparseArray = (SparseArray<myObject>) savedInstanceState.getSparseParcelableArray("mySparseArray");

It gets this error:

Cannot cast from SparseArray<Parcelable> to SparseArray<myObject>

If this way is wrong, what is the solution for put mySparseArray in bundle? Any help would be much appreciated.

回答1:

Your class should implement Parcelable and should have a static final member variable called CREATOR of type Parcelable.Creator<myObject>.

回答2:

You can extend SparsArray to imlement a Serializable as use it:

import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.ObjectInputStream;
import java.io.ObjectOutputStream;
import java.io.Serializable;
import android.util.SparseArray;
