How can I pass a Bitmap object from one activity to another

Question

In my activity, I create a Bitmap object and then I need to launch another Activity, How can I pass this Bitmap object from the sub-ac

Answer 1

In my case, the way mentioned above didn't worked for me. Every time I put the bitmap in the intent, the 2nd activity didn't start. The same happened when I passed the bitmap as byte[].

I followed this link and it worked like a charme and very fast:

package your.packagename

import android.graphics.Bitmap;

public class CommonResources { 
      public static Bitmap photoFinishBitmap = null;
}

in my 1st acitiviy:

Constants.photoFinishBitmap = photoFinishBitmap;
Intent intent = new Intent(mContext, ImageViewerActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);

and here is the onCreate() of my 2nd Activity:

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    Bitmap photo = Constants.photoFinishBitmap;
    if (photo != null) {
        mViewHolder.imageViewerImage.setImageDrawable(new BitmapDrawable(getResources(), photo));
    }
}
