Hi,

Thank you for your reply. I have a couple follow up comments/questions
related to the responses. I have included these inline.

I felt it would be quicker to serialize my class into a byte stream
than saving each configuration parameter separately and I couldn't
find the ability to store a byte stream using SharedPreferences.

How do I handle the
byte[] settingsBuffer = new byte[(int) inputFile.length];
without opening a File?

i.e. How would I figure out in advance the size of the byte buffer I
need to receive my file? Or, what path can I append to my open file to
allow it to find the settingsFile, or is it not that easy?
