_Some_ form of serialization is sane, whether that be binary, XML, JSON, or whatever. IParcelable should be considered "for compatibility only". However, do you need serialization? You may be able to "just" store your instance state into a static ("global") variable "somewhere", then look it up later. This would avoid the need to serialize entirely, though you'll need some mechanism to allow such data to be collectable... - Jon _______________________________________________ Monodroid mailing list Monodroid@lists.ximian.com UNSUBSCRIBE INFORMATION: http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/monodroid
