Passing multicheckbox values to another activity

Question

Let me try this again with better phrasing. I am very new at this; I am trying to pass the value result of checkbox’s to another activity. I have tried it a few different ways without success and I would be grateful for some direction. I know how to make a “Toast” with the result, that is not what I want it to do. I want the checkbox results will appear in a textview in another activity. If someone could help me out with some hints on how to accomplish that task I would be grateful, I am sorry to bother everyone with such unchallenging questions. I have read a couple books and watched some tutorials but my skills are still lacking. The books are as repetitive and redundant as the tutorials (buttons and layouts, etc.).

    final CheckBox chbxshirleys = (CheckBox)findViewById(R.id.checkboxshirleys);
    final CheckBox chbxdianas = (CheckBox)findViewById(R.id.checkboxdianas);
    final CheckBox chbxzoila = (CheckBox)findViewById(R.id.checkboxzoila);
    final CheckBox chbxsheila = (CheckBox)findViewById(R.id.checkBoxSheila);
    final CheckBox chbxrobert = (CheckBox)findViewById(R.id.checkBoxrobert);
    final CheckBox chbxsam = (CheckBox)findViewById(R.id.checkBoxsam);
    final CheckBox chbxcamren = (CheckBox)findViewById(R.id.checkBoxcamren);
    final CheckBox chbxricks = (CheckBox)findViewById(R.id.checkBoxricks);
    final Button vendorbutton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.vendorbutton);

    vendorbutton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            String vendor ="";
            if (chbxshirleys.isChecked())
            {
                vendor += chbxshirleys.getText();

            }

                    if (chbxdianas.isChecked())
                    {
                vendor += chbxdianas.getText();

                    }
                    if (chbxzoila.isChecked())
                    {
                vendor += chbxzoila.getText();
                }
                    if (chbxsheila.isChecked())
                    {
                vendor += chbxsheila.getText();
                    }
                    if (chbxrobert.isChecked())
                    {
                vendor += chbxrobert.getText();
                    }
                    if (chbxsam.isChecked())
                        {
                    vendor += chbxsam.getText();
                        }
                    if (chbxcamren.isChecked())
                    {
                vendor += chbxcamren.getText();
                    }
                if (chbxricks.isChecked())
                {
            vendor += chbxricks.getText();
                }
                Intent myIntent=new Intent(getApplication(),ApplianceMessage.class);
                myIntent.putExtra("chbxshirleys", vendor);
                myIntent.putExtra("chbxdianas", vendor);
                myIntent.putExtra("chbxzoila", vendor);
                myIntent.putExtra("chbxsheila", vendor);
                myIntent.putExtra("chbxrobert", vendor);
                myIntent.putExtra("chbxsam", vendor);
                myIntent.putExtra("chbxcamren", vendor);
                myIntent.putExtra("chbxricks", vendor);
                startActivity(myIntent);
        }       
        });

}

Answer 1

In your first activity:

Intent i=new Intent(YourClassName.this,ApplianceMessage.class);
i.putExtra("selected",vendor);
startActivity(i);

In your second Activity:

String selecteditem=getIntent().getExtras().getString("selected");
textview.setText(selecteditem);

Answer 2

You're putting a String Extra in the intent. Just get it by:

getIntent().getStringExtra("chbxshirleys");
....
