Display value of dynamically created EditText in another Activity

Question

I created one mini App for learning,
When any user give any number in EditText and click on submit, then TextView & EditText created dynamically based on given Digit.
and After created new EditText, user fill Data in EditText and click on submit button...
When user click on submit data must pass in new intent and Display that data in it.

My Problem is that when I click on submit button,
only Last EditText Value is display...

What Can I Do?
Thanks In Advance...!!!
Here is my Code...

Answer 1

My Problem is that when I click on submit button,
only Last EditText Value is display...

Because, you are overwriting the data in your for loop using this key:

for (int j = 0; j < allEds.size(); j++) {
    items[j] = allEds.get(j).getText().toString();
    data.putExtra("edData", items[j]);
    data.putExtra("size", str);
}

And later, retrieve using index id till j = size.

You can either use index in key or pass String array itself:

Approach 1:

data.putExtra("size", str);  //you don't need to keep this in loop as its same.
for (int j = 0; j < allEds.size(); j++) {
    items[j] = allEds.get(j).getText().toString();
    data.putExtra("edData"+j, items[j]);
}

and

int size = Integer.parseInt(getIntent().getStringExtra("size"));
for (int j = 0; j < size; j++) {
    Intent intent = getIntent();
    String str = intent.getStringExtra("edData"+j);
}

Approach 2:

Pass String array in intent, and later, retrieve it in second activity:

intent.putExtra("strings", myStringArray);

and

Intent intent = getIntent();
String[] myStrings = intent.getStringArrayExtra("strings");

Hope this helps.

Please check below you are updating the value every time that's why it is only showing last digit.

You can use Shared Preferences to store values, And later on you can retrieve from shared preferences.

Write to Shared Preferences

SharedPreferences sharedPref = getActivity().getPreferences(Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = sharedPref.edit();
editor.putInt(getString(R.string.saved_high_score), newHighScore);
editor.commit();

Read from Shared Preferences

SharedPreferences sharedPref = getActivity().getPreferences(Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
int defaultValue = getResources().getInteger(R.string.saved_high_score_default);
long highScore = sharedPref.getInt(getString(R.string.saved_high_score), defaultValue);

Check in Google API Shared - Preferences

Answer 4

Move data.putExtra for both size and edData keys outside for loop data.putExtra work like a Map which have a unique keys

// Prepare items Array 
for (int j = 0; j < allEds.size(); j++) {
    items[j] = allEds.get(j).getText().toString();
}
data.putExtra("edData", items);
data.putExtra("size", str);

Now get edData as String Array instead of String from Bundle .
