Using Parcel to clone an object?

Question

I have a class which has implemented Parcelable. Can I do something like the following to create a new instance of a class?:

Foo foo = new Foo(\"a\", \"b\", \"c\         


        

Answer 1

I had the same problem and here is my solution:

Parcel p = Parcel.obtain();
foo.writeToParcel(p, 0);
p.setDataPosition(0); // <-- this is the key
Foo foo2 = Foo.CREATOR.createFromParcel(p);
p.recycle();
