[android-developers] Re: passing values from Activity to Activity
Call getStringArrayExtra() on the Intent in the receiving Activity to get it back. I have no Intent in the receiving Activity ? Or is that the Bundle which comes with public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) ?

Right now I show an activity by using : Intent i = new Intent(this, activitysName.class); startActivity(i); I have no idea whilst using this construction how I can initialize the new object with the String array I want to pass to it... So how should this be achieved ? Should I be using something else instead of an Intent-Activity combination ? Call putExtra() on the Intent after construction to attach the String array.

[android-developers] Re: passing values from Activity to Activity
aha ! look at that ! thanks a lot for the answer it helped me out :D I have to say that It's all pretty confusing, you got your Java class, your XML layout, your activity, your Intent, your Context, your bundles etc... Inter-object communication isn't very easy (or at least not as transparant as in J2ME), just passign a reference and using its get/ set methods or whatever... Well I did get your book (together with other 4 books!), and after this first hacked demo for our app I will be investing much more time into this complex hierarchy of classes and methologies...
