Hi, I stored subtypes into an ArrayList, and when I tried to serialize
the ArrayList, I get NotSerializable exceptions. (See sample code
below). I tried the same logic in Java, and it works fine.

Is this an Android implementation issue, or prehaps I left out
something?

Thanks and regards

------------------------------------------

package com.test_serializable;

import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.ObjectOutputStream;
import java.io.Serializable;
import java.util.ArrayList;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class test_serializable extends Activity {
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */

        private ArrayList<basetype> data=null;

        @Override
        public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        data=new ArrayList<basetype>();

        // populate ArrayList with some data

        typeA i=new typeA();
        i.base=0;
        i.a=1;
        data.add(i);

        typeB j=new typeB();
        j.base=0;
        j.b=2;
        data.add(j);
    }


        @Override
        public void onPause() {
                super.onPause();
                //serialize to file
        try{
            FileOutputStream fos = openFileOutput("datafile",
Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
            ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(fos);
            oos.writeObject(data);
            oos.close();
            fos.close();
         } catch (Exception e){
                 Toast t=
Toast.makeText(this,e.toString(),Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
                 t.show();
         }
        }

    class basetype implements Serializable {
        int base;
    }

    class typeA extends basetype {
        int a;
    }

    class typeB extends basetype {
        int b;

    }
}
