Save Bundle to SharedPreferences [duplicate]

Answer 1

I extended the answer from Dan with a function to recreate the Bundles automatically, and made the names less likely to clash.

private static final String SAVED_PREFS_BUNDLE_KEY_SEPARATOR = "§§";

/**
 * Save a Bundle object to SharedPreferences.
 *
 * NOTE: The editor must be writable, and this function does not commit.
 *
 * @param editor SharedPreferences Editor
 * @param key SharedPreferences key under which to store the bundle data. Note this key must
 *            not contain '§§' as it's used as a delimiter
 * @param preferences Bundled preferences
 */
public static void savePreferencesBundle(SharedPreferences.Editor editor, String key, Bundle preferences) {
    Set keySet = preferences.keySet();
    Iterator it = keySet.iterator();
    String prefKeyPrefix = key + SAVED_PREFS_BUNDLE_KEY_SEPARATOR;

    while (it.hasNext()){
        String bundleKey = it.next();
        Object o = preferences.get(bundleKey);
        if (o == null){
            editor.remove(prefKeyPrefix + bundleKey);
        } else if (o instanceof Integer){
            editor.putInt(prefKeyPrefix + bundleKey, (Integer) o);
        } else if (o instanceof Long){
            editor.putLong(prefKeyPrefix + bundleKey, (Long) o);
        } else if (o instanceof Boolean){
            editor.putBoolean(prefKeyPrefix + bundleKey, (Boolean) o);
        } else if (o instanceof CharSequence){
            editor.putString(prefKeyPrefix + bundleKey, ((CharSequence) o).toString());
        } else if (o instanceof Bundle){
            savePreferencesBundle(editor, prefKeyPrefix + bundleKey, ((Bundle) o));
        }
    }
}
