Pass list of objects from one activity to other activity in android

First, make the class of the list implement Serializable.

public class MyObject implements Serializable{}

Then you can just cast the list to (Serializable). Like so:

List<MyObject> list = new ArrayList<>();
myIntent.putExtra("LIST", (Serializable) list);

And to retrieve the list you do:

Intent i = getIntent();
list = (List<MyObject>) i.getSerializableExtra("LIST");

That's it.


Use parcelable. Here is how you will do it:

public class SharedBooking implements Parcelable{

    public int account_id;
    public Double betrag;
    public Double betrag_effected;
    public int taxType;
    public int tax;
    public String postingText;

    public SharedBooking() {
        account_id = 0;
        betrag = 0.0;
        betrag_effected = 0.0;
        taxType = 0;
        tax = 0;
        postingText = "";
    }

    public SharedBooking(Parcel in) {
        account_id = in.readInt();
        betrag = in.readDouble();
        betrag_effected = in.readDouble();
        taxType = in.readInt();
        tax = in.readInt();
        postingText = in.readString();
    }

    public int getAccount_id() {
        return account_id;
    }
    public void setAccount_id(int account_id) {
        this.account_id = account_id;
    }
    public Double getBetrag() {
        return betrag;
    }
    public void setBetrag(Double betrag) {
        this.betrag = betrag;
    }
    public Double getBetrag_effected() {
        return betrag_effected;
    }
    public void setBetrag_effected(Double betrag_effected) {
        this.betrag_effected = betrag_effected;
    }
    public int getTaxType() {
        return taxType;
    }
    public void setTaxType(int taxType) {
        this.taxType = taxType;
    }
    public int getTax() {
        return tax;
    }
    public void setTax(int tax) {
        this.tax = tax;
    }
    public String getPostingText() {
        return postingText;
    }
    public void setPostingText(String postingText) {
        this.postingText = postingText;
    }
    public int describeContents() {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return 0;
    }
    public void writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags) {
        dest.writeInt(account_id);
        dest.writeDouble(betrag);
        dest.writeDouble(betrag_effected);
        dest.writeInt(taxType);
        dest.writeInt(tax);
        dest.writeString(postingText);

    }

    public static final Parcelable.Creator<SharedBooking> CREATOR = new Parcelable.Creator<SharedBooking>()
    {
        public SharedBooking createFromParcel(Parcel in)
        {
            return new SharedBooking(in);
        }
        public SharedBooking[] newArray(int size)
        {
            return new SharedBooking[size];
        }
    };

}

Passing the data:

Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(),YourActivity.class);
Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
bundle.putParcelable("data", sharedBookingObject);
intent.putExtras(bundle);
startActivity(intent);

Retrieving the data:

Bundle bundle = getIntent().getExtras();
sharedBookingObject = bundle.getParcelable("data");
