Question

I am trying to send a bundle from one activity to another. When I load the bundle in the recieving activity all the information seems to be null. Here is some code:

Activity A (sending bundle):

public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int position, long arg3) {
                Intent intent = new Intent(HotelsActivity.this, EditHotelActivity.class);
                Bundle b = new Bundle();
                b = toBundle(app.getHotelList().get(position));
                intent.putExtra("Hotel Bundle", b);
                startActivity(intent);
            }

            });

the toBundle method is just adding strings from an object into the bundle. I have put logging statements in this method and the bundle is definately not null.

Activity B (loading the bundle):

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView (R.layout.edit_hotel);
        setTitleFromActivityLabel (R.id.title_text);

        // Retrieve sent bundle
        Bundle b = this.getIntent().getExtras();
        String hotelName = b.getString("hotelname");
        if (hotelName == null)
            MyLog.i(TAG, "IT IS NULL");
    }

The loggin statement then prints “IT IS NULL” because for some reason hotelName is null but that is definately the correct key.

Can anyone help with this?

toBundle method:

public Bundle toBundle(HotelItem hotel) {
        Bundle b = new Bundle();
        b.putString("hotelname",hotel.getHotelName());
        b.putString("hotel address", hotel.getHotelAddress());
        b.putString("hotel telephone", hotel.getHotelTelephone());
        b.putString("hotel website", hotel.getHotelWebsite());


        return b;
    }

Answer 1

You must use exact key sent:

String hotelName = b.getString("hotelname");
