How to pass object list from one activity to another in android?

Question

I had a object list in my activity and i want to pass that object list to another activity to generate a list view in that activity,is it possible?

For simple string values i had used the following code...

Intent intentprint=new Intent(OrdersScreen.this,PrintTemplate.class);
        String pbal=String.valueOf(Balance.getText());
        intentprint.putExtra("Branch", bname);
        intentprint.putExtra("Party", pname);
        intentprint.putExtra("Balance",pbal);
        intentprint.putExtra("Billvalue", bal);
        startActivity(intentprint);

Any help will be appreciated..

Answer 1

You can send arralist of objects as below

intent.putParcelableArrayListExtra("some_key", (ArrayList<TYPE>) list);
startActivity(intent); 

Retrieve it

ArrayList<TYPE> list = (ArrayList<TYPE>)getIntent().getParcelableArrayListExtra("some_key");

Answer 2

The similar question was already asked, please take a look at this: Passing data through intent using Serializable

The only difference is the way of storing the object. The above mentioned method uses Serializable.

Answer 3

You can use

    intent.putParcelableArrayListExtra("list",myStringArrayList);

to pass an arraylist to next activity. See this for more complete details. Help with passing ArrayList and parcelable Activity
