Android: Serializable Intent

Question

I have an object that has (among other things) a list of Intents. I want to pass this object as an extra to an Intent. However, the Intent class is not serializable, it is just "Parcelable".

I assume that Parcelable is the android version of Serializable, but I'd rather not have to write my own serialization code for my class, and Parcelable seems to require that.

Anyone have any solutions to this other than just reimplementing the Intent as a serializable class?

Answer 1

You can put a Parcelable in an Intent extra, and an Intent is already Parcelable. All you need to do is make your object Parcelable and you are set.
