Android Question Header/Details - best practice to store

[Bobi]

What is the best practice to work with Header/Details document structure from real world (using for example type)?

    Type Order (id_order As Int, od As OrderDetail)
Type OrderDetail (id_orderdetail, id_order As Int)

This is not a solution because i have there a one-to-many relation.

Thank you

This sounds like a database solution where you can easily manage 1:many relations. If you want to make it without a database, i would choose a list:

Type Order (id_order As Int, OrderDetailList As List)

where you put the details in the list of your type....

So do you suggest to append (type of) OrderDetails to list. Seems to be a nice aproach.

yes, but I would regard the database as the first choice.

Sure. But not in my case. All information resides in a database behind an web services. Mobile application is just a ... window where I can see/manipulate data. It's not working "offline" so I don't need to store data. Hope puting some information in memory it's not a tragedy
