I have an ArrayList< Object> where the Object is an instance of a class I made. I want to pass this new array list back to the main activity to put it in a navigationdrawer item.
How do I pass an ArrayList< Object> from an activity back to the main one?
I have tried the bundle.getParcelableArrayList however it tells me that "Inferred type Object for type parameter T is not within its bounds, should implement android.os.parcelable"
Here is my Code:
public void createPlaylist(String playlistName, ArrayList<Song> newPlaylistSongsArray) {
Intent returnIntent = new Intent();
Bundle b = new Bundle();
b.putParcelableArrayList("array", (ArrayList<? extends Parcelable>) newPlaylistSongsArray);
returnIntent.putExtra("playListName", playlistName);
returnIntent.putExtra("array", newPlaylistSongsArray);
setResult(Activity.RESULT_OK,returnIntent);
finish();
}
And:
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (requestCode == 1) {
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK){
String newPlaylistName = data.getStringExtra("playListName");
Bundle b = getIntent().getExtras();
final ArrayList<Song> newPlaylist = b.getParcelableArrayList("array");
Toast.makeText(MP3Player.this, "New Playlist Created", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_CANCELED) {
Toast.makeText(MP3Player.this, "Shit went wrong yo!", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
}
For the easiest way, your Song class need implement Serializable.
Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
bundle.putSerializable("newPlaylist", newPlaylist);
intent.putExtras(bundle);
in other activity:
Intent intent = this.getIntent();
Bundle bundle = intent.getExtras();
ArrayList<Song> newPlaylist=
(ArrayList<Song>)bundle.getSerializable("newPlaylist");
