Question

I am having a problem in trying to pass a ArrayList Object from Activity to Activity. Currently I am parsing a XML response using SAX Parser. The information I parse goes into a ArrayList. The information from the ArrayList is then used to populate a ListView using title as the name displayed on the listview slides.

What I want to be able to do is when I click on a item in the listview the assosiated information from that object will also be sent to the new activity and populate the fields which will display extra information.

I have tried creating a new adapter which links to the new XML layouts file but none of the data gets sent across. 🙁

I have looked into bundles but will that sent the whole arraylist or just the data that is associated with the listview I am using?

Any advice on approach’s I can use to do this?

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

When sending from From the activity

Intent myIntent = new Intent(From.this, To.class);
myIntent.putStringArrayListExtra("name",value);                             
 From.this.startActivity(myIntent);

and when receiving from To Activity

Bundle bundle = getIntent().getExtras();
ArrayList<String> list=bundle.getStringArrayList("name");
