Transfer Data Between Activities Using Intent



user interface is displayed through an activity(Screen). Activity is used to represent the data to user and allows user interaction. In an android application, we can have multiple activities and they can interact with each other


Interaction between multiple activities can be done only using Intent. Intents are objects of theandroid.content.Intent type. Your code can send them to the Android system defining the components you are targeting. In Android app development you face situations where you want to send or receive your data between one Activity (Screen) to another. 


Calling one Activity from another in Android


Define an intent that will be sent to Activity2:
Intent launchActivity2 = new Intent(Activity1.this, Activity2.class);

Current activity Activity1 and the one you wish to open - Activity2.


Sample

Intent intent = new Intent(HomeActivity.this, EntriesActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);



Button entriesButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btnEntries);
entriesButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

    @Override    public void onClick(View v) {

        Intent intent = new Intent(HomeActivity.this, EntriesActivity.class);
        startActivity(intent);
    }
});



pass data between activities on Android

In your current Activity, create a new Intent:
Intent i = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), NewActivity.class);

i.putExtra("key","value");
startActivity(i);
Then in the new Activity, retrieve those values:
Bundle extras = getIntent().getExtras();
if (extras != null) {
    String value = extras.getString("key");
    //The key argument here must match that used in the other activity
}
Use this technique to pass variables from one Activity to the other.
Sample
Current activity
btnGenerate=(Button)findViewById(R.id.btnGenerate);
btnGenerate.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
    @Override    public void onClick(View view) {

        Intent myIntent = new Intent(RptsalesreportActivity.this, RptsalesreportdisplayActivity.class);
        myIntent.putExtra("day", "12");
        myIntent.putExtra("month", "2");
        myIntent.putExtra("year", "2017");
        startActivity(myIntent);

    }

});
New activity
Intent intent = getIntent();
String day = intent.getStringExtra("day");
String month = intent.getStringExtra("month");
String year = intent.getStringExtra("year");
value access by using getIntent() method.



Android Call An Activity class from a java class

Pass string value and Current Activity Context to function menuActions in Genfunctions class.
Java class like this
package com.example.root.calendar;

import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;

public class Genfunctions {



    public void menuActions(String title,Context ct){

        //this.context=context;
        switch (title){
            case "ENTRIES":

                Intent intent = new Intent(ct, RptentrylistActivity.class);
                ct.startActivity(intent);
                break;
        }

    }//end of functions

}
Activity Class function call like this
Genfunctions gn = new Genfunctions(); gn.menuActions("ENTRIES",this);

Android - SQLite Tips




Android sqlite check if inserted new value


insert() method returns the row ID of the newly inserted row, or -1 if an error occurred.
Like this:
long rowInserted = db.insert(AddNewPhysicalPerson, null, newValues);
if(rowInserted != -1)
    Toast.makeText(myContext, "New row added, row id: " + rowInserted, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
else
    Toast.makeText(myContext, "Something wrong", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

Called from main activity for save item record to SQLite table and return status true or false.

public boolean insertItem(HashMap<String, String> queryValues) {

    SQLiteDatabase database = this.getWritableDatabase();
    ContentValues values = new ContentValues();


    values.put("edate",queryValues.get("edate"));
    values.put("item",queryValues.get("item"));
    values.put("amount",queryValues.get("amount"));
    values.put("number",queryValues.get("number"));
    values.put("count",queryValues.get("count"));

        long rowInserted = database.insert("customerentries", null, values);

        if(rowInserted != -1) {
            database.close();
            return true;
        }
        else{
            database.close();
            return false;

Code like this :

Create an init() function and point the table layout. Then create the needed rows and columns. Call init function in your onCreate method:



package com.example.root.mymysqlapp;

        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_table2);


        init();

    }


    public void init() {

        TableLayout stk = (TableLayout) findViewById(R.id.table_main);
        TableRow tbrow0 = new TableRow(this);

        TextView tv0 = new TextView(this);
        tv0.setText(" Sl.No ");
        tv0.setTextColor(Color.WHITE);
        tbrow0.addView(tv0);

        tbrow0.addView(tv2);

        TextView tv3 = new TextView(this);
        tv3.setText(" Total Fee ");
        tv3.setTextColor(Color.WHITE);
        tbrow0.addView(tv3);

        stk.addView(tbrow0);

        for (int i = 1; i <= 25; i++) {
            TableRow tbrow = new TableRow(this);

            TextView t1v = new TextView(this);
            t1v.setText(""+i);
            t1v.setTextColor(Color.WHITE);
            t1v.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);
            tbrow.addView(t1v);

            TextView t2v = new TextView(this);
            t2v.setText("Student " + i);
            t2v.setTextColor(Color.WHITE);
            t2v.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER);
            tbrow.addView(t2v);

Inserting table row beginning of table layout in java programmatically


tbl.addView(View child, int index)

child contains rows object and index contains for add row position in table layout.

Example

tbl.addView(row,0);  // added first row
tbl.addView(row,1);  // added second row
.
.
tbl.addView(row);  // added row in end of table layout.



Dynamically add imagebutton programatically android


ImageButton b1 = new ImageButton(this);
b1.setImageResource(R.drawable.delete);
b1.setLayoutParams(new TableRow.LayoutParams(TableRow.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, TableRow.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
b1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        final TableRow parent = (TableRow) v.getParent();
        stk.removeView(parent);
    }
});

tbrow.addView(b1);




How do I get values from a dynamically created android TableRow?



getChildAt to get a hold of the two TextViews and get the data:

tr.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
   public void onClick(View view) {
      TableRow t = (TableRow) view;
      TextView firstTextView = (TextView) t.getChildAt(0);
      TextView secondTextView = (TextView) t.getChildAt(1);
      String firstText = firstTextView.getText().toString();
      String secondText = secondTextView.getText().toString();
   }
});


Solution for the get values of selected row on clicked button in table row.


ImageButton b1 = new ImageButton(EntriesActivity.this);
b1.setImageResource(R.drawable.delete);
b1.setLayoutParams(new TableRow.LayoutParams(TableRow.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, TableRow.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
b1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    @Override    public void onClick(View v) {
        final TableRow parent = (TableRow) v.getParent();

        //code for remove concerned row
        //stk.removeView(parent);
        TextView items = (TextView) parent.getChildAt(7);

        Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), items.getText().toString() ,Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();


    }
});
row.addView(b1);



How to hide a particular column in Android TableRow



Try to Use setVisibility(View.GONE); 
t3v.setVisibility(View.GONE);

TextView id = new TextView(EntriesActivity.this);
id.setText(content.get("id").toString());
id.setTextColor(Color.WHITE);
id.setVisibility(View.GONE);
row.addView(id);




Get total RowCount for TableLayout in Android



Through this code you can get the total rowCount for TableLayout
TableLayoutName.getChildCount();

Examples

TableLayout tb = (TableLayout) findViewById(R.id.table_main);

if(tb.getChildCount()>1){

.....Code Here.....

}



Adding space between columns of a TableLayout


 Programetically  add

  TextView count = new TextView(RptsalesreportdisplayActivity.this);
  count.setText(obj.get("count").toString());
  count.setTextColor(Color.WHITE);
  count.setPadding(0,0,30,0);
  row.addView(count);


<TableRow
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" >

    <TextView
        android:layout_width="0"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_weight=".25"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:text="col1" />   ...........


Set tablelayout row background color programmatically


tbrow0.setBackgroundResource(R.color.cgreen);
