hi, i have an app in which i want to store the user preference that
whether he checks a chekckbox or not, however when i restart the app,
i am unable to restore the settings set by the user.
I have tried the following :

public void OnCreate()
{
.....
        checkbox=(CheckBox)findViewById(R.id.checkbox);



     // storing the user preference

        SharedPreferences sharedpref =
getApplicationContext().getSharedPreferences(MYPREF,Activity.MODE_WORLD_READABLE);
 //
here MYPREF is the name of the file storing the preference
        SharedPreferences.Editor e = sharedpref.edit();
        e.putBoolean("checkboxvalue", checkbox.isChecked());
        e.commit();

      //retrieving the preference set
                SharedPreferences mysharedpref =
getApplicationContext().getSharedPreferences(MYPREF,Activity.MODE_WORLD_READABLE);
                checked=mysharedpref.getBoolean("checkboxvalue", false);
                if(checked)checkbox.setChecked(true);
