Hi, You can try concatenating the foo's into a single string delimited by some character that will NOT appear in any of the strings. For example, I am assuming pipe character (|) will never appear in any of the strings you want to pass. Then, create a string like:
"7|Hello|This is another string|1123|" Put this string as extra. In the receiving part, tokenize the string by |, then you get all the elements.
