Hi,
Thanks for the tips. Is it possible to pass an arbitrary object to the
child activity and back ? The examples I saw were setting stuff inside
the intent itself. For example, from parent to child, I query a
content provider that returns a bunch or rows displayed by list
activity. Once user selects one of the items from the list, i want to
get the corresponding row from the list adapter and pass it to child
activity. So, I was hoping to do something like below:
protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
...
...
Intent i = new Intent(this, ChildActivity.class);
i.putExtra(ChildActivity.KEY_ITEM, myAdapter.getItemId((int)id));
startActivityForResult(i, ENTRY_CREATE);
...
...
}
My child activity might not also need to send back an object to the
parent (i am not sure if it is needed at this point in my app. but ..)
but not sure if it can be done.
Thanks,
Sarath
