Passing JSONObject into another activity

Question

I\'m hitting an external API that\'s returning JSON data (new dvd titles). I\'m able to parse out the JSON and list each dvd title and other dvd information into a ListView

Answer 1

You can just encapsulate all of the information about a movie into a Movie object, which implements Parcelable.

The code will look similar to above, but instead of passing 6 different extras you can just pass one extra that is the movie.

Movie movie = new Movie();
movie.setTitle(jsonObj.getJSONObject("Title").opt("val").toString());
movie.setRelDat(jsonObj.getJSONObject("RelDate").opt("val").toString());
.
.
.
i.putExtra("movie", movie);

For information on implementing a Parcelable object, see Parcelable docs. You basically just write out each string in 'writeToParcel', and read in each string in 'readFromParcel' in the correct order.
