Passing a Bundle on startActivity()?

Question

What\'s the correct way to pass a bundle to the activity that is being launched from the current one? Shared properties?

Answer 1

Passing data from one Activity to Activity in android

An intent contains the action and optionally additional data. The data can be passed to other activity using intent putExtra() method. Data is passed as extras and are key/value pairs. The key is always a String. As value you can use the primitive data types int, float, chars, etc. We can also pass Parceable and Serializable objects from one activity to other.

Intent intent = new Intent(context, YourActivity.class);
intent.putExtra(KEY, );
startActivity(intent);

Retrieving bundle data from android activity

You can retrieve the information using getData() methods on the Intent object. The Intent object can be retrieved via the getIntent() method.

 Intent intent = getIntent();
  if (null != intent) { //Null Checking
    String StrData= intent.getStringExtra(KEY);
    int NoOfData = intent.getIntExtra(KEY, defaultValue);
    boolean booleanData = intent.getBooleanExtra(KEY, defaultValue);
    char charData = intent.getCharExtra(KEY, defaultValue); 
  }
