How to access ArrayList from another class in Android Java?

Question

I\'m new to Android and Java but do have some experience in Objective C and iPhone programming. I\'m attempting to recreate an app I\'ve already designed for the iPhone and

Answer 1

You should not make the Methods static.Because that is not an OOP Design then.

There are 2 ways:

1). Either make the properties public. (Not a good practise either)

2). add getters and setters for ParserHandler class

class ParserHandler {

  private  List dogArray = new ArrayList();

  public List getDogArray() {
   return this.dogArray;
  }

  public void setDogArray(List dogArray) {
    this.dogArray = dogArray;
  }


}

Now access dogArray Like this

ph.getDogArray();
 int m = ph.getDogArray().size();

Initially it will be 0 since it is an empty list. Use the setter method to set the array first
