I'm just not getting the documentation on Intents. I have two
Activities A and B. Activity A calls Activity B based on a menu
selection. This is my code snippet:
ccase R.id.MENU_SELECTION:
Intent intent=new Intent(Intent.ACTION_ATTACH_DATA);
intent.setClass(MainClass.this,ReturnClass.class);
startActivityForResult(intent,Intent.FILL_IN_DATA);
break;
What I ultimately want is for Activity B to return a number to me.
In the above, I select Intent.ACTION_ATTACH_DATA mainly because I
didn't know what else to select. The setClass specifies the class for
Activity A and the destination class (the class for Activity B). In
the startActivityForResult, I pass the intent. The
Intent.FILL_IN_DATA is also because
I didn't know what else to select, but I do want data returned.
In anticipation for the Result, I have added the following in my
MainClass:
protected void OnActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode,
Intent data)
{
if (requestCode==Intent.FILL_IN_DATA)
{
if (resultCode==RESULT_OK) {
String theAnswerThatIWantReturned=data.getStringExtra(????);
}
}
}
Whether the above is correct or not, I do end up in Activity B. In
Activity B, when I return, based on either a menu selection or button
click, I have no idea what to return. I assume it will look
something like:
String theAnswerIWantToReturn="something";
Intent intent=new Intent();
intent.setClass(ReturnClass.this,MainClass.class);
startActivity(intent);
But I can't figure out what the correct syntax might be. Can someone
please help or at least point me to an example that I might be able to
follow?
Thanks;
