Android pass value from activity to adapter

Question

I want to pass variable from activity to adapter.

My adapter looks like this

  public SampleAdapter(Activity context, ArrayList da         


        

Answer 1

Declare Your Adapter In Activity

private ChatsAdapter chatsAdapter;

Initiate Your Adapter in OnCreate in Activity (sendingEntity will be your String which you want to pass)

chatsAdapter = new ChatsAdapter(lIndividualChats, sendingEntity);

Declare Variable In Adapter

private String entity;

Catch it in Adapter Constructor

public ChatsAdapter(List individualChats, String sendingEntity) {

    this.individualChats = individualChats;
    entity = sendingEntity;

}

Use it anywhere in your adapter

Log.d(TAG, "entity: " +entity);
