Question

Here’s the scenario.
I have:

A LOGIN activity

A SESSION where I have methods getUsername() and setUsername()

A GET activity where it is supposed to get the username.

Upon successful login in the Login Activity I have this line of code

public class MainActivity extends Activity {
Session obj = new Session();

and then in another method called tryLogin() i have this

obj.setUsername(mUsername);

In Session activity I have these codes:

public class Session extends Application {
String username;
int userid;


@Override
public void onCreate() {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onCreate();
}

public void setUsername(String user)
{
    this.username = user;
}
public String getUsername()
{
    return this.username;
}

and in the Activity that gets the username I have this line.

    Session obj = new Session();
    username =  obj.getUsername();

This doesn’t work properly. BUT if I manually set the ‘username’ to some string in the SESSION activity like this:

public class Session extends Application {
    String username = "manually set the string";

Then the GET Activity gets the username just fine.
So I think it’s safe to narrow down the issue to the setUsername from the login activity.

So what am i doing wrong here?

Thank you so much.

Try:

public class Session extends Application {
     public static String username;

in your Session Activity.
