[android-developers] Re: settings page for app design

What I did was to create a singleton class that encapsulated the
preferences. The class has an "update" method that I call when I
return from setting the preferences. Otherwise, as a singleton class
it is available to all activities and units.

As to how I fetch the preferences, I use the following:

SharedPreferences prefs = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences
(mContext);

try {
colorValue = Integer.parseInt(prefs.getString(mContext.getString
(R.string.pref_color),
mContext.getString(R.string.colordefault)));
}
catch (Exception ex) {
colorValue = 0;
}

Note that in my singleton class I set the context from the main
activity in its create event. The mContext is a reference to that.
