How to pass an object from one activity to another on Android

Question

I am trying to work on sending an object of my customer class from one Activity and display it in another Activity.

The code for t

Answer 1

You can try to use that class. The limitation is that it can't be used outside of one process.

One activity:

 final Object obj1 = new Object();
 final Intent in = new Intent();
 in.putExtra(EXTRA_TEST, new Sharable(obj1));

Other activity:

final Sharable s = in.getExtras().getParcelable(EXTRA_TEST);
final Object obj2 = s.obj();

public final class Sharable implements Parcelable {

    private Object mObject;

    public static final Parcelable.Creator < Sharable > CREATOR = new Parcelable.Creator < Sharable > () {
        public Sharable createFromParcel(Parcel in ) {
            return new Sharable( in );
        }


        @Override
        public Sharable[] newArray(int size) {
            return new Sharable[size];
        }
    };

    public Sharable(final Object obj) {
        mObject = obj;
    }

    public Sharable(Parcel in ) {
        readFromParcel( in );
    }

    Object obj() {
        return mObject;
    }


    @Override
    public int describeContents() {
        return 0;
    }


    @Override
    public void writeToParcel(final Parcel out, int flags) {
        final long val = SystemClock.elapsedRealtime();
        out.writeLong(val);
        put(val, mObject);
    }

    private void readFromParcel(final Parcel in ) {
        final long val = in .readLong();
        mObject = get(val);
    }

    /////

    private static final HashMap < Long, Object > sSharableMap = new HashMap < Long, Object > (3);

    synchronized private static void put(long key, final Object obj) {
        sSharableMap.put(key, obj);
    }

    synchronized private static Object get(long key) {
        return sSharableMap.remove(key);
    }
}
