Sessions in android

I am trying to create a list of certaing objects, so i can see it anytime and anywhere. So i was wondering if there is any way to have some information in an Android activity, and sees it in the other activities just like the Session[] in asp.net.

Check out the Android Application class. It's essentially a singleton with the lifetime of your app.

Or as others have suggested, use Shared Preferences to a) persist things across Activities and b) persist things across "sessions".

You can use Android Shared Preferences

SharedPreferences prefs = getSharedPreferences("myPreferences",Context.MODE_PRIVATE);

SharedPreferences.Editor editor = prefs.edit();
editor.putString("email", "[email protected]");
editor.putString("name", "Test");
editor.commit();

And to get the data use this:

SharedPreferences prefs =
     getSharedPreferences("myPreferences",Context.MODE_PRIVATE);

String email= prefs.getString("email", "[email protected]");

This or simple Shared Preferences might be what you are looking for.

You can push all your shared information in a static object.

The best way to do it is to create a singleton. Here is a sample: http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-04-2003/jw-0425-designpatterns.html
