'Pass FrameLayout as part of android Messsage IPC
I have implemented a Messenger as IPC mechanism between two android apps. Now I want to pass a FrameLayout object as part of android.os.Message
Message msg = new Message();
Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
bundle.putString("4", "2");
msg.setData(bundle);
msg.what = 42;
msg.obj = a_frame_layout_instance;
I want to do this so that app1 can create a layout and inflate it, and then pass the layout object to app2 via IPC, which can then add/update the view.
This fails because FrameLayout is not parcelable.
java.lang.RuntimeException: Can't marshal non-Parcelable objects across processes.
- Is there a way to pass a FrameLayout instance via IPC?
- Is there some other path that can be explored so that app1 creates the views, and app2 updates the view?
