Using Shared preferences to send data to another activity

What Have i done ::

As you can clearly see i am sending data from BLD_IndividualListOfItems_Starters to ResultActivity using intents... looks like its a collection

What i want to achieve :: I want to achieve same output using shared preferences....that means in BLD_IndividualListOfItems_Starters i want to add the data & in ResultActivity i want to retrieve it using shared preferences

What changes in code should i need to make

BLD_IndividualListOfItems_Starters.java

public class BLD_IndividualListOfItems_Starters extends Activity{
    // Declare Variables
        JSONObject jsonobject;
        JSONArray jsonarray;
        ListView listview;
        ListViewAdapterForAtomicListItemtype adapter;
        ProgressDialog mProgressDialog;
        ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> arraylist;
        static String NAME = "rank";
        Button btn;

        String TYPE_FILTER;

        StringBuilder result;

        @Override
        public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
            // Get the view from listview_main.xml
            setContentView(R.layout.listview_main);

            TYPE_FILTER = getIntent().getExtras().getString("key_title");
            Log.v("---- Value-Start---", TYPE_FILTER);
            // Locate the listview in listview_main.xml
            listview = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listview);

            btn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
            btn.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

                @Override
                public void onClick(View v) {
                    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

                    result = new StringBuilder();
                    for (int i = 0; i < arraylist.size(); i++) {
                        if (adapter.mysparse.get(i) == true) {

                            result.append(arraylist.get(i).get(BLD_IndividualListOfItems_Starters.NAME));
                            result.append("\n");
                        }

This is global shared preferance which is availbale throughout your application. You access it any component or any class 

PreferenceManager manager = (PreferenceManager) PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(getApplicationContext());
            SharedPreferences.Editor editor = null;

To insert values

editor = manager.getSharedPreferences().edit();
            editor.putString("key", "value");

Get value

SharedPreferences preferences = manager.getSharedPreferences();
            preferences.getString("key", "value");

If you want to use ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> in multiple activity then better to save as application level for this you can use Application class.

below is sample code for your study..

MyApplication.java

public class MyApplication extends Application {

    ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> arraylist;

    @Override
    public void onCreate() {

        super.onCreate();
    }

    public void setArrayListMapData(ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> setData)
    {
        arraylist = setData;
    }

    public ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> getArrayListMapData()
    {
        return arraylist;
    }
}

MyActivity.java

public class MyActivity extends Activity {

    ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> arraylist;
    MyApplication mApplication;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        mApplication = (MyApplication)getApplication();

        //how to assign list data
        mApplication.setArrayListMapData(arraylist);


        //how to get same list data
        arraylist = mApplication.getArrayListMapData();

        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    }
}

You can get same list in multiple activity with same code..

Note: don't forgot to register class in menifest.xml

   <application
    android:name="com.android.app.MyApplication"
    android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
      > ..................

Here com.android.app is package name and MyApplication is class name.

For your concern try some thing like this

For putting text entered to EditText in sharedPrefernces

SharedPreferences spppp = getSharedPreferences("tab", 0);
SharedPreferences.Editor editors = spppp.edit();
editors.putString("for", "you_value");
editors.commit();

For getting value on another activity

SharedPreferences spppp = getSharedPreferences("tab", 0);
String get_value = spppp.getString("for" , "");

Cheers

public class SessionManager {
    // Shared Preferences
    SharedPreferences pref;

    // Editor for Shared preferences
    Editor editor;

    // Context
    Context _context;

    // Shared pref mode
    int PRIVATE_MODE = 0;

    // Sharedpref file name
    private static final String PREF_NAME = "demo";


    // Constructor
    public SessionManager(Context context) {
        this._context = context;
        pref = _context.getSharedPreferences(PREF_NAME, PRIVATE_MODE);
        editor = pref.edit();
    }



    /**
     * Set and get User Data
     */
    public void setUserData(String userData) {
        // Storing name in pref
        editor.putString("userData", userData);
        editor.commit();
    }

    public String getUserData() {
        return pref.getString("userData", null);
    }
    }

set your data in first activity

SessionManager s=new SessionManager(this);

s.setUserData("mydata");

get your data in another activity

SessionManager s=new SessionManager(this);

String data_String=s.getUserData();

In your onClick of the btn OnClickListener:

Instead of

n.putExtra("buffer", result.toString());

Try

SharedPreferences prefs = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this);
prefs.edit().putString("buffer", result.toString()).commit();

and then in ResultActivity:

Instead of

 Intent n = getIntent();
 myName = n.getStringExtra("buffer");

Try

SharedPreferences prefs = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this);
myName = prefs.getString("buffer", null);

To set the data:

SharedPreferences prefs = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this);
prefs.edit().putString("key", "value").commit();

To read the data:

SharedPreferences prefs = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this);
String value = prefs.getString("key", null);
