[android-developers] Re: SQLite and JSON or Java object serialization

Well, I found the following link:

http://www.jondev.net/articles/Android_Serialization_Example_%28Java%29

I guess I won't be using JSON and will serialize accordingly. Now I wonder
whether to store the object in a file or in an SQLite database. Since I have
a single object I could probably do away with SQLite.

Any suggestions,

Regards,

Hello,

I have some Java objects which need to be written to a database while the
user interacts with the application. Such an object has nested objects and I
was considering implementing a proper SQLite representation of the object.
However in another application I just convert to JSON and write the whole
object to the database as a single record. Is there an analogous serialization
mechanism in android so that I may serialize the object and store a single
sqlite record in the database (the serialized objects)?

Any problems with this approach? What classes do I need to use?

Thanks,

John Goche
