I have searched a few topics but not found a solution to my problem.
public class Series implements Parcelable {
private String name;
private int numOfSeason;
private int numOfEpisode;
/** Constructors and Getters/Setters have been removed to make reading easier **/
public Series(Parcel in) {
String[] data = new String[3];
in.readStringArray(data);
this.name = data[0];
this.numOfSeason = Integer.parseInt(data[1]);
this.numOfEpisode = Integer.parseInt(data[2]);
}
@Override
public int describeContents() {
return 0;
}
@Override
public void writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags) {
dest.writeStringArray(new String[] { this.name,
String.valueOf(this.numOfSeason),
String.valueOf(this.numOfEpisode) });
}
private void readFromParcel(Parcel in) {
name = in.readString();
numOfSeason = in.readInt();
numOfEpisode = in.readInt();
}
public static final Parcelable.Creator CREATOR = new Parcelable.Creator() {
@Override
public Series createFromParcel(Parcel in) {
return new Series(in);
}
@Override
public Series[] newArray(int size) {
return new Series[size];
}
};
}
In my MainActivity I have an ArrayList. To make the list dynamically editeable I need to pass it to another activity where I can edit it.
ArrayList<Series> listOfSeries = new ArrayList<Series>();
public void openAddActivity() {
Intent intent = new Intent(this, AddActivity.class);
intent.putParcelableArrayListExtra(
"com.example.episodetracker.listofseries",
(ArrayList<? extends Parcelable>) listOfSeries);
startActivity(intent);
}
I need to cast the list, otherwise Eclipse gives me the following Error message. The method putParcelableArrayListExtra(String, ArrayList) in the type Intent is not applicable for the arguments (String, List)
Is this the correct way to do it?
ArrayList<Series> list = savedInstanceState
.getParcelableArrayList("com.example.episodetracker.listofseries");
This is the way I try to read the data in another activity.
It's crashing on the line above. namely the getParcelableArrayList part.
