[android-developers] passing values from Activity to Activity
Hi, I have an app which makes use of several layout-views...Every layout- view also got a class for it, which extend the Activity class... One class for example retrieves some database values whilst offering a search form to the user... Afterwards the user can select one of those values and he gets presented with another screen which gives similar options as the one selected... Anyways, I'd like for the first Activity to be able to send an array with data (Strings for example) to the second one... 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 getStringArrayExtra() on the Intent in the receiving Activity to get it back. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com Android App Developer Books: http://commonsware.com/books.html -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
