Pass ArrayList from fragment to another fragment(extends ListFragment) using bundle, seListAdapter runtime error

Question

I have tried using Static variable for the ArrayList but in the ListFragment class, while debugging it\'s value is null.

I think the ListFragment gets created before

Answer 1

You can only pass custom object or ArrayList of custom object via Bundle(or Intent) when the object is either Parcelable or Serializable. One more thing if your fragments are in same activity then why you are passing array. you just create getter and setter for list in your Activity and access them like ((Activity)getActivity).getArraylist() in your listFragment. For creating object Parcelable do something like below.

import android.os.Parcel;
import android.os.Parcelable;

public class Address implements Parcelable {

private String name, address, city, state, phone, zip;

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

/*
        THE ORDER YOU READ OBJECT FROM AND WRITE OBJECTS TO YOUR PARCEL MUST BE THE SAME
 */

@Override
public void writeToParcel(Parcel parcel, int i) {
    parcel.writeString(name);
    parcel.writeString(address);
    parcel.writeString(city);
    parcel.writeString(state);
    parcel.writeString(phone);
    parcel.writeString(zip);
}


public Address(Parcel p){
    name = p.readString();
    address = p.readString();
    city = p.readString();
    state = p.readString();
    phone = p.readString();
    zip = p.readString();
}

// THIS IS ALSO NECESSARY
public static final Creator
 CREATOR = new Creator
() {
    @Override
    public Address createFromParcel(Parcel parcel) {
        return new Address(parcel);
    }

    @Override
    public Address[] newArray(int i) {
        return new Address[0];
    }
};
}
