It's not only the repetitive "CREATOR" stuff. I found that if I send a custom parcelable to a Service which was to start after my main Activity had gone away, loading my object would fail (class loader not available or something ... there was a thread or two about it a while ago). This was my major motivation for ditching parcelable. Parcelable is an advantage if you need to pass arrays of such objects > around.

Or, better yet, you can pass an ArrayList of Bundles with putParcelableArrayListExtra(), which takes advantage of the generics interface. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TreKing <http://sites.google.com/site/rezmobileapps/treking> - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered devices -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
