Reading and writing java.util.ArrayList from Parcelable class

Question

I'm using Parcelable class to send Object from one activity to another activity in Android Java.

Parcelable only implements for me String data.

How I can read and write productsArrayList and status from this class?

public class Bill implements Parcelable {
    private String id;
    private Date createAt;
    private ArrayList<Products> productsArrayList;
    private ArrayList<StatusBill> status;

    public Bill(String id, Date createAt, ArrayList<Products> productsArrayList, ArrayList<StatusBill> status) {
        this.id = id;
        this.createAt = createAt;
        this.productsArrayList = productsArrayList;
        this.status = status;
    }

    protected Bill(Parcel in) {
        id = in.readString();
        createAt = new Date(in.readLong());
    }

    @Override
    public int describeContents() {
        return 0;
    }

    @Override
    public void writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags) {
        dest.writeString(id);
        dest.writeLong(createAt.getTime());
    }
    public static final Creator<Bill> CREATOR = new Creator<Bill>() {
        @Override
        public Bill createFromParcel(Parcel in) {
            return new Bill(in);
        }

        @Override
        public Bill[] newArray(int size) {
            return new Bill[size];
        }
    };
}

There would have been another solution: serialize the list to a JSON string. – Peter O. May 23 '21 at 17:47
