How can I receive a custom ArrayList from another Activity via Intent? For example, I have this ArrayList in Activity A:
ArrayList<Song> songs;
How could I get this list inside Activity B?

I hope this helps you.
1. Your Song class should be implements Parcelable Class
public class Song implements Parcelable {
//Your setter and getter methods
}
2. Put your arraylist to putParcelableArrayListExtra()
public class ActivityA extends AppCompatActivity {
ArrayList<Song> songs;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
startActivity(new Intent(getApplicationContext(), ActivityB.class)
.putParcelableArrayListExtra("songs", (ArrayList<? extends Parcelable>) songs));
}
});
}
3. In the ActivityB
public class ActivityB extends AppCompatActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
Intent intent = getIntent();
final ArrayList<Song> songs = intent.getParcelableArrayListExtra("songs");
//Check the value in the console
buttonCheck.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
for (Song value : songs) {
System.out.println(value.getTitle());
}
}
});
}
to send a string arrayList in Java you can use,
intent.putStringArrayListExtra("key", skillist <- your arraylist);
and
List<String> listName = getIntent().getStringArrayListExtra("key");
