How to store the arraylist in ormlite database

Question

I am trying to save the arraylist of class objects into the ormlite database , but it is giving the error , java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No fields have a DatabaseFiel

Answer 1

If you want to save an ArrayList of objects to ORMLite the easiest way is this:

@DatabaseField(dataType = DataType.SERIALIZABLE)
private SerializedList myObjects;

and to get my list of objects:

public List getMyObjects() {
  return myObjects;
}

and here is SerializedList:

public class SerializedList extends ArrayList implements Serializable {
}
