I will throw my 2 cents into this discussion keeping in mind I am a
newbie android developer.
I was able to successfully use serialization to pass an object to and
return from another activity.
I hope this helps...
//this main activity will pass the gameParams (of type public class
GameOptionParams implements Serializable)
//to the GameOptions activity
Intent myIntent = new Intent(this, GameOptions.class);
Bundle b = new Bundle();
b.putSerializable("options", gameParams);
myIntent.putExtras(b);
startActivityForResult(myIntent,STATIC_OPTIONS_VALUE);
//in GameOoptions upon ready to return results
// prepare to send results back to invoker
Intent resultIntent = new Intent();
Bundle b = new Bundle();
b.putSerializable("options", gameParams);
resultIntent.putExtras(b);
setResult(Activity.RESULT_OK, resultIntent);
finish();
//and then back in the main to get the results
//return handler from invocation to GameOptions
@Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode,
Intent data)
{
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
switch(requestCode)
{
case (STATIC_OPTIONS_VALUE) :
{
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK)
{
//retrieve intended options
Bundle b = data.getExtras();
gameParams = (GameOptionParams)
b.getSerializable("options");
