Is it possible to add an array or object to SharedPreferences on Android

Question

I have an ArrayList of objects that have a name and an icon pointer and I want to save it in SharedPreferences. How can I do?

NOTE:

Answer 1

The Simple way is, to convert it to JSON String as below example:

Gson gson = new Gson();
String json = gson.toJson(myObj);

Then store the string in the shared preferences. Once you need it just get string from shared preferences and convert back to JSONArray or JSONObject(as per your requirement.)
