Question

I have a ListView where each ListItem has 2 TextViews in it’s layout. I’d like to pass the values of those TextViews to another activity when the ListItem is clicked. All my attempts have failed, so i ask you how can i do that? How can i pass the SQLite ROW_ID, the values of R.id.text1 and R.id.text2?

    Cursor cursor = database.getAllNames();
    adapter = new SimpleCursorAdapter(this, R.layout.listrow, cursor,
            new String[] { Database.KEY_DATE , Database.KEY_NAME },
            new int[] {R.id.text1, R.id.text2}, 0);

    listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.list);
    listView.setAdapter(adapter);

    listView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
        public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
            Intent intent = new Intent(SendingData.this, ReceivingData.class);
            intent.putExtra("id", id); //this should pass the SQLite ROW_ID
            intent.putExtra("date", date); //this should pass the value of R.id.text1
            intent.putExtra("name", name); //this should pass the value of R.id.text2
            startActivity(intent);  
        }
        });

Use this to retrieve the data from the SQLLite database.

cursor.getString(c.getColumnIndex(Database.columns[i])) // i is the index of the column whose details you want to fetch

And then you can pass them as parameters in intent.putExtra.

listView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
        public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
            Cursor cursor = null;
            cursor = (Cursor) parent.getItemAtPosition(position);
            Intent intent = new Intent(SendingData.this, ReceivingData.class);
            intent.putExtra("id", cursor.getInt(cursor.getColumnIndex(Database.columns[0]))); //assuming that the first column in your database table is the row_id
            intent.putExtra("date", cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(Database.columns[1]))); //assuming that the second column in your database table is the text1
            intent.putExtra("name", cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(Database.columns[2]))); //assuming that the third column in your database table is the text2
            startActivity(intent);  
        }
        });
