Hi



I am trying to store data in my blackberry by implementing a class that implements the persistable type, each class has its own data structure, and therefore i would like to encapulate it all inside the class and not have to load all the different hex numbers (references to the object store) from the main application. am i doing anything wrong?



I'm not able to get the results back in my test app size the _data vector size is 0.



also i dont understand why in most other sample apps i see, the store in static braces:



static {

store =

PersistentStore.getPersistentObject(0xdec6a67096f8 33cL);

synchronized (store) {

if (store.getContents() == null) {

store.setContents(new Vector());

store.commit();

}

}

_data = new Vector();

_data = (Vector) store.getContents();

}



is the static keyword necessary around the block of code? and how can i integrate it into my class?



Thanks



---------------------- my code ----------------



public class WeightRecordPersistableCollection implements Persistable {





private static Vector _data; //vector of WeightRecordPersistable objects

private static PersistentObject store;

private long objID = 0x88ab2311;



public WeightRecordPersistableCollection() {

set_data(new Vector(20));

for (int i = 0; i < get_data().capacity(); ++i) {

get_data().addElement(null);

}

StoreData();

}



public Vector getElement(int id) {

return (Vector) get_data().elementAt(id);

}



//need a getElement by hashcode



public void setElement(int id, WeightRecordPersistable value) {

int oldcapacity = get_data().capacity();

//expand the vector if size is too small

if(id > oldcapacity-1){

get_data().setSize(id+1);

for(int j=oldcapacity-1; j<get_data().capacity(); j++){

get_data().addElement(null);

}

}

get_data().setElementAt(value, id);

}



//save the list of goals in memory

public void GetWeightRecordList(){

store = PersistentStore.getPersistentObject (objID);

synchronized (store) {

_data = (Vector) store.getContents();

}

System.out.println("vecgor size in getting: " + _data.size());

}



public void StoreData(){

store = PersistentStore.getPersistentObject (objID);

synchronized (store) {

if (store.getContents() != null) {

store.setContents(_data);

store.commit();

}

}

}



}

Don't you have a hard time trying to follow the code formatted that way? I do. Please read this thread: http://www.blackberryforums.com/deve...rum-posts.html

Then have a look at the Application Developers' Guide sections on Persistent Storage: Livelink - Redirection

Answer: Its not necessary.
