Android :: Passing Intent Value To Another Class
Oct 14, 2010
I have four groups in a listview each with four url's I want to load in a webView. When the user select a url to goto I set a value like so;
if (position == 0) webb = webb +2;
{
Intent intent = new Intent(this, official.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
I then carryout the intent to move to the webView class where I have given each URL a value like so;
if (webb == 2) mWebView.loadUrl("http://yahoo.com");
if (webb == 3) mWebView.loadUrl("http://www.bbc.co.uk");
But the screen stays blank, if I state the value inside the official.class it works. How can I get this value to pass to another class based on the selection the user makes from the listview.

I have been trying to get "getExtra" to work but without success, I have a listview with 4 choices which launch a webpage within a webView class, when the user selects the option lets say option 3 I want to pass the value of 3 to the webView class so that it will load the correct webpage, at the moment I get no errors, but the app force closes when I select the option, could this be due to having to announce this in the manifest? can somebody help with where I am going wrong. This is my intent
public void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
if (position == 0) {
Intent intent = new Intent(this, official.class);
intent.putExtra("weburl", 3);
startActivity(intent);}
This is the official class:
public class official extends Activity {
int number = getIntent().getIntExtra("weburl", 0);
@Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
if ((keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) && mWebView.canGoBack()) {
mWebView.goBack();
return true;
} return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
} WebView mWebView;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.browser1);
mWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
mWebView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
if (number == 2) mWebView.loadUrl("http://bcafc.livewwware.co.uk");
if (number == 3) mWebView.loadUrl("http://www.bbc.co.uk");
mWebView.setWebViewClient(new HelloWebViewClient());

I am working to set a countdown timer. I have successfully (borrowed) a number picker (spinner) and set up the dialog box for the user to set the time. This is in a class called timepickactivity and the variables are hour and mins (R.id.hour and R.id.mins). I want to call the set values (R.id.hour and R.id.mins) from the dialog (timepickeractivity) to the actual countdown class (countdown) but I can't figure out how to get the values.

I am creating a database driven app for managing people. I am showing a list of people with each name in a TextView. When a TextView is clicked, I launch a new intent to show the detail for the person. My question: What's the best practices for passing the id of the person to the new intent? The TextView is displaying the name of the person, so how do I know the id of the person? Once I know the id, I know how to pass it to the new intent, but I don't know what the best way to associate the id of the person to the TextView. Is there a best practice for this?

I would like to create some home screen app widgets that are entry points into an application. I can put a button in the app widget that uses setOnClickPendingIntent to start the activity. The problem occurs when I want to have two of these app widgets that are entry points to different parts of the activity. I need to be able to pass data into the activity that will distinguish these. Since both app widgets use a Pending Intent that starts the same activity, the two Pending Intents are shared and I can't reliably set extras for the corresponding intents.

I have an application, which sets an alarm using AlarmManager, which starts another Activity when it goes off. The AlarmManager takes a PendingIntent and spawns a BroadcastReceiver class when the specified time comes. I'm wondering whether there is any way that I can pass arguments to this BroadcastReceiver through the Intent object which goes into PendingIntent?I'd like to be able to retrieve arg1 in the BroadcastReceiver's onReceive(Context, Intent) method. I figured that the local variable my_intent would be the second parameter passed on to onReceive by the PendingIntent, but apparently that's not quite right. Is it possible to pass parameters between an Activity and a BroadcastReceiver in this fashion (using Intent.putExtra()) or should I use a ContentProvider instead?

I would like to setup a boolean called dFlag in the main.class of my program and reference it in another class.
I already have it setup to work locally just hitting a snag on how to do it.
Code:
public class Main extends Activity {
boolean dFlag; ///Debug flag, true=enabled | false=disabled
}
public class Other extends Activity {
if(dFLag = true) {
///Output debug message
}
}
Or is there an easier way to do what I want without having to re-invent the wheel so to speak?

I would like to pass a considerable sized amount of data (~1500 bytes) between two applications in Android where performance and resource allocation is a priority. The data is basically key-value pairs. The rate at which it needs to be passed from one application to another can vary from a trickle to ~50 packets within a second. I figure I can either:
Wrap all the data inside a bundle, and pass the bundle via an Intent from one application to another. I worry about the performance implications of allocating and de-allocating all that memory to store the bundles.
Write all the data to a SQLite database and provide it to the other application via a content provider. Here I worry about the performance implications of writing all that data to disk, and then having to read it back from disk when it is requested. So, which is the lesser of two evils?

I've always been under the assumption that you can't pass arrays between activities with extras. But I was just going through the Bundle class docs and saw putStringArray(String key, String[] value) and public String[] getStringArray (String key). Are these new? They both say since API lvl 1, but I don't remember being able to pass arrays.

I've got two activities, one of them is called MyActivity. I want both of them to be able to use a function located in a class othat we may call MyClass. In MyClass, I try to use an intent to launch the activity AnotherActivity. Since the constructor takes a context as parameter, I simply tried to store a context from the activity in the constructor, and then use it when I try to create my intent.However, even thought none of the arguments are null (checked that with a simple if-statement), intent seems to be null and a NullPointerException is thrown. Why does it not work, and what can I do to solve the problem?
I'm quite new to Android and Java development, so please explain it as basic as you can.

I am calling intents alot in my program and I thought that I could write a public class that would have all of my intents so I can just call something like intents.testIntent(params) and then have it fire off the intent.
I tried it out but am getting a force close with a null pointer exception. This is my whole class. I know it is probably sloppy but I have just been learning java for 2 months so I still am an amateur. Any way, my code...

I create an Intent in one class then it's returned to another class. I need to check the type of intent it is. I need to ensure it's not a specific class of intent.

I'm posting this to share the lessons I learned while working with IntentService. IntentService has a single constructor that takes a string argument "name". The documentation has no description of what name is used for. In looking at the sources, I found that its only use is in naming the worker thread for the IntentService. This thread is named IntentService [name].
I initially implemented the constructor of the derived class to also take a String argument and passed it along to the derived class. This is wrong. This will cause the startService() call to generated a java.lang.InstantiationException in the application containing the service i.e. you don't get the exception in the application calling startService(). A clue to the actual problem is a little further up in the logs:"newInstance failed: no <init>()"
The derived class must have a Default constructor and that constructor must call super() passing a string for the name component of the worker thread name.
public class MyIntentService extends IntentService {
public MyIntentService() { super("MyIntentService");
} @Override
protected void onHandleIntent(Intent intent) {
// Handle events on worker thread here }

I had come across a code snippet which calls for an activity without referring to any context. Before, i was considering that context is used to tell about the calling component. But as i came see that another component can be called without any reference to context, it makes me wonder what purpose it might be serving. please put some light on it.
Here is the code which calls for an activity without referring to 'context'

I want to specifically run the default Android browser for a given URL. I'm using this code: I also tried adding <uses-library android:name="com.google.android.browser" /> to the manifest. Am I missing something here? PS: I'm not interested in using startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("http://www.google.com"))) as it will list all the choices for the browsing Intent.

I'm just getting into Android development, and I have a question about communicating between a receiver class and an activity class. I'm very new to JAVA and Android so I hope I don't sound too stupid. I'm developing an application where I intercept an SMS message and then based on various elements of that SMS I might delete it once it's been saved to the inbox. I have a receiver class that intercepts the txt message, and I am also able to delete messages from my inbox with code in the activity class using a button at the moment. The problem I have is communicating between the receiver class and the activity class where the code to delete a message resides. I tried putting that code directly into the receiver class but as I'm sure most of you already know the BroadcastReceiver class doesn't seem to support what I need to delete messages. I've been searching for an answer to this for a while, but haven't been able to find anything. Honestly I'm not sure I know enough about JAVA and Android to even recognize a solution if I saw it.

What I want to do, is be able to access the object neoApi inside the Neoseeker class, from its inner class RunningTimer. Now, in my code, you can see what I would think to work, but when I run my application, nothing pops up. Nothing inside my TextView, no Toast, nothing at all. How can I remedy this?

import android.app.Activity;

I'm new to Java and android development. In my application I need data which is accessible for a few activities. I've read that a good solution is to use Application class for this. So I use it like this:
public class MyApplication extends Application {
private String str;
public String getStr(){
return str;
}
public void setStr(String s){
str = s;
}
}
and I can access this variable from activity like this:........................................
