How to store object in sqlite database?

Question

Is it possible to store user defined objects in a SQLite database from Android? For example: I am creating one class and I want to store that class object in the database. Is it possible? If it is, how to proceed? On the Blackberry platform, I am able to store objects directly in persistent objects. Is it possible to do this with SQLite and Android?

Answer 1

You'll need to be able to serialize your object into a byte stream and then recreate your object from a byte stream.

Then, just store that byte stream in your db.

EDIT: Read this article to learn about serialization in Java. It caters to the subject in a much better way than I would be able to by just giving some code snippets.

Answer 2

Instead of storing them in SQLite why not store them in db4o, which is specifically designed for storing objects. A simple tutorial for sotring objects using db4o.
