How to read and write Enum into parcel on Android?

Question

Here is my model class:

public enum Action {
    RETRY, SETTINGS
}

private int imageId;
private String description;
private String actionName;
private Action ac         


        

Answer 1

One way to do this is to write Actions in integer and read them properly as integer and convert them into Action. What I mean:

@Override
public void writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags) {
    dest.writeInt(this.imageId);
    dest.writeString(this.description);
    dest.writeString(this.actionName);

    int actionAsInt = action == Action.RETRY ? 1 : 0;
    dest.writeInt(actionAsInt);
}

protected NetworkError(Parcel in) {
    this.imageId = in.readInt();
    this.description = in.readString();
    this.actionName = in.readString();

    int actionAsInt = in.readInt();
    this.action = actionAsInt == 1 ? Action.RETRY : Action.SETTINGS;
}

Try it. Success ...
