I am making an application which has an activity where the user can add a picture to an object, here I give the user the choice between selecting a picture from the gallery or making a new one using the camera. Both of these options start an Intent which (after the user is done choosing a picture) returns to activity it came from.
But the problem I'm having is that when the user comes back sometimes some of the data of that activity is lost, so I "reload" it using a savedInstance. One of the objects I try to save is an arraylist of custom views that extend RelativeLayout. But when I load the data the following I get the following error:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.example.sition.projectmanager/com.example.sition.projectmanager.activities.ObjectActivity}: java.lang.RuntimeException: Parcelable encountered IOException reading a Serializable object (name = com.example.sition.projectmanager.TabButton)

Here is my custom RelativeLayout Class:
public class TabButton extends RelativeLayout implements Serializable {
public TabButton(Context context) {
super(context);
}
public TabButton(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
}
public TabButton(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyleAttr) {
super(context, attrs, defStyleAttr);
}
}
And my onSaveInstanceState and onRestoreInstanceState:
@Override
protected void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState) {
outState.putSerializable("CURRENT_OBJECT",currentObject);
outState.putSerializable("TAB_BUTTONS", tabButtons);
super.onSaveInstanceState(outState);
}
@Override
protected void onRestoreInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onRestoreInstanceState(savedInstanceState);
currentObject = (Objectable) savedInstanceState.getSerializable("CURRENT_OBJECT");
tabButtons = (ArrayList<TabButton>) savedInstanceState.getSerializable("TAB_BUTTONS");
}
What am I doing wrong?
