How can I send an object from one Activity to another with Intent.putExtra and Parcel?

Using Stack Overflow question How to send an object from one Android Activity to another using Intents?, I have made a sample application as follows.

File Scrollview1.java

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Button;

public class Scrollview1 extends Activity {
    static int i;
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        Button b = (Button)fi开发者_开发问答ndViewById(R.id.Button01);

        b.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

            public void onClick(View v) {
                Intent i = new Intent(Scrollview1.this, Result.class);
                Name n = new Name();
                n.setI(20);
                n.setS1("Hello");
                n.setS2("World");
                i.putExtra("Name", n);
                startActivity(i);
            }
        });
    }
}

File Name.java

import android.os.Parcel;
import android.os.Parcelable;

public class Name implements Parcelable {
    int i;
    String s1;
    String s2;

    public Name() {

    }

    private Name(Parcel in) {
        in.readInt();
        in.readString();
    }

    public int getI() {
        return i;
    }

    public void setI(int i) {
        this.i = i;
    }

    public String getS1() {
        return s1;
    }

    public void setS1(String s) {
        this.s1 = s;
    }

    public String getS2() {
        return s2;
    }

    public void setS2(String s) {
        this.s2 = s;
    }

    public int describeContents() {
        return 0;
    }

    public void writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags) {
        dest.writeInt(i);
        dest.writeString(s1);
        dest.writeString(s2);
    }

    public static final Name.Creator<Name> CREATOR = new Name.Creator<Name>() {
        public Name createFromParcel(Parcel in) {
            return new Name(in);
        }

        public Name[] newArray(int size) {
            return new Name[size];
        }
    };
}

File Result.java

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;

public class Result extends Activity {
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

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

       Name a = (Name)getIntent().getParcelableExtra("Name");
       System.out.println("Int: " + a.getI());
       System.out.println("String: " + a.getS1());
       System.out.println("String: " + a.getS2());
    }
}

But it is Result class I getting null. What is wrong?

In:

private Name(Parcel in){
    in.readInt();
    in.readString();
}

You are reading from the Parcel, but not actually assigning the information to a variable.

---

I think you should change it to this:

private Name(Parcel in){
    i  = in.readInt();
    s1 = in.readString();
    s2 = in.readString();
}

---

As per the documentation for the getParcelableExtra, it states that it returns null if the parcelable content is not found.

Try this in your Result.java file:

Name a = (Name)getIntent().getExtras().getParcelable("Name");

Instead of what you are doing now,

Name a = (Name)getIntent().getParcelableExtra("Name");
