1,658 PointsMake Custom views parcelable
Hopefully this question winds up in the right place... If not, in the Android Fragments Series, there is a video we need to save state of a list of CheckBox views' "checked" value. In the video, we are generating an array of booleans to be stored in the bundle, instead of just saving the CheckBox array, since View does not implement parcelable. As a result, we're jumping through a few hoops to restore the CheckBoxes to their correct state.
Is there a pattern / solution to make custom views parcelable, so that we can save state without a workaround such as in the video? I suppose subclassing could be an option, but that would seem like a pain with all the properties needed to serialize.
