How to use putExtra() and getExtra() for string da

Question

Can someone please tell me how exactly to use getExtra() and putExtra() for intents? Actually I have a string variable, say str, which stores some string data. Now, I want to send this data from one activity to another activity.

  Intent i = new Intent(FirstScreen.this, SecondScreen.class);   
  String keyIdentifer  = null;
  i.putExtra(strName, keyIdentifer );

and then in the SecondScreen.java

 public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) 
    {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.table);
        TextView userName = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.userName);
        Bundle bundle = getIntent().getExtras();

        if(bundle.getString("strName")!= null)
        {
            //TODO here get the string stored in the string variable and do 
            // setText() on userName 
        }

    }

I know it is very basic question but unfortunately I am stuck here. Please help.

Thanks,

Edit: Here the string which I am trying to pass from one screen to the other is dynamic. That is I have an editText where I am getting string whatever user types. Then with the help of myEditText.getText().toString() . I am getting the entered value as a string then I have to pass this data.

Answer 1

More simple

sender side

Intent i = new Intent(SourceActiviti.this,TargetActivity.class);
i.putExtra("id","string data");
startActivity(i)

receiver side

Intent i = new Intent(SourceActiviti.this,TargetActivity.class);
String strData = i.getStringExtra("id");

Answer 2

Intent intent = new Intent(view.getContext(), ApplicationActivity.class);
                        intent.putExtra("int", intValue);
                        intent.putExtra("Serializable", object);
                        intent.putExtra("String", stringValue);
                        intent.putExtra("parcelable", parObject);
                        startActivity(intent);

ApplicationActivity

Intent intent = getIntent();
Bundle bundle = intent.getExtras();

if(bundle != null){
   int mealId = bundle.getInt("int");
   Object object = bundle.getSerializable("Serializable");
   String string = bundle.getString("String");
   T string = <T>bundle.getString("parcelable");
}
