We Keep Coding

How can I make one button display the contents of two text boxes on the next screen?

I am very new to coding, this being only my 2nd semester in community college and therefore I have a lot to learn.
In my Android Development course, I have been tasked to use the program I've created from the Android Development lesson here - https://developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/starting-activity#java - as the basis for a new program which instead has 2 textboxes and which displays the content the user inputs into those textboxes, onto the display screen, by clicking the 1 send button.
I am stuck.
I've been at this since last Tuesday when the challenge was issued and I've been Google searching, DuckDuckGo searching, searching through stackoverflow, searching through here - https://developer.android.com/docs/ - and I've tried many different approaches but I can't seem to find out how to accomplish this.
!!For the record: I'm not asking someone to code the program/app for me. I'm simply trying to understand how to get this 1 button to send 2 textbox contents to the display - I want to learn!!

You have to implement the onClick function and send the intent from there.
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
Button button;
private EditText name;
private EditText number;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
//initialization of the EditText and the Button
name = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.Name);
number = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.Number);
button = findViewById(R.id.button);
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), DisplayMessage.class);
String mName = name.getText().toString();
String mNumber = number.getText().toString();
//Checking if the Entries are empty
if(mName!=null&&mNumber!=null) {
intent.putExtra("Name", mName);
intent.putExtra("Number", mNumber);
startActivity(intent);
finish();
}else{
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"Text Entries Missing",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
});
and the Display Class:
public class DisplayMessage extends Activity {
private TextView name;
private TextView number;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.display_activity);
name = findViewById(R.id.NameText);
number = findViewById(R.id.NumberText);
Intent getText = getIntent();
String TheName =getText.getStringExtra("Name");
String TheNumber = getText.getStringExtra("Number");
name.setText(TheName);
number.setText(TheNumber);
}
Also don't forget to add your displayActivity to the AndroidManifest.xml
<activity android:name=".DisplayMessage">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"></action>
</intent-filter>
</activity>
Now you have to create a second user interface for the DisplayMessageActivity go to res/layout, right click on the layout folder and create a new layout named display_activity. This is my code for the display_activity.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<TextView
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:id="#+id/NameText"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:textSize="18sp"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/NumberText"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:textSize="18sp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
Lastly this is the activity_main layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:id="#+id/ColorActivity"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".MainActivity">
<EditText
android:id="#+id/Name"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="32dp"
android:ems="10"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/Number"
android:hint="edit_name_message"
android:inputType="textPersonName"

app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"

android:text="button_send"

app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#+id/Number" />
<EditText

android:layout_width="wrap_content"

app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#+id/Name" />
</RelativeLayout>

Just reduce your two functions (snedNumber and sendName) to only one function. Inside this function you get the text of both textfields and put them into your intentextra. then simply start your new activity

Do it like this
public void sendInfo(View view) {
Intent intent = new Intent(this, DisplayMessageActivity.class);
EditText name = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.Name);
String message = name.getText().toString();
EditText number = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.Number);
String message2 = number.getText().toString();
intent.putExtra("firstString", message);
intent.putExtra("secondString", message2);
startActivity(intent);
}
And in your DisplayMessageActivity class onCreate method get it like
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.your_activity);
Bundle extra = getIntent().getExtras();
if (extra != null){
String message = extra.getString("firstString");
String message2 = extra.getString("secondString");
}
}

passing user input (EditText) between activities, and then using that in formula

I want from user to input his name in one EditText widget, then to input his weight in other EditText widget, and after that to proceed that data from one activity to another one.
Weight input should later be included in one formula, and name input should be settled in TextView widget with result of the formula.
But, when i start my app, at the end Android Studio shows me NullPointerException. I suppose that err is somewhere in data sharing between activities.
So, here is the code. If you can, pls help me :)

Thank you very much once again! :)))

Change your Activity Two class to:
public class RezultatM extends AppCompatActivity {
TextView rezultat;
String str1,str2;
double masad;
public static final String MyPREFERENCES = "MyPrefs";
SharedPreferences sharedPreferences;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_rezultat_m);
rezultat = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.rezultatTekst);
Button button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button);
//Intent intent = getIntent();
//str1 = intent.getStringExtra("keyIme");
//str2 = intent.getStringExtra("keyMasa");
//getting values from shared preferences
SharedPreferences shared = getSharedPreferences(MyPREFERENCES, Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
str1=shared.getString("keyIme", "");
str2=shared.getString("keyMasa", "");
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
if(str2!=null){
masad = Double.parseDouble(str2);
}
double nekibroj = 0.8;
double result = masad * nekibroj;
rezultat.setText(str1 + "Nivo alkohola u tvojoj krvi je:" + result);
};
});
}}
Also in your Activity one you are starting wrong intent
Intent intent1 = new Intent(InformacijeM.this, RezultatM.class);
intent1.putExtra("keyIme", str1);
intent1.putExtra("keyMasa", str2);
Intent intent = new Intent(InformacijeM.this, StanjeM.class);
// startActivity(intent); //here you are starting another class..check it
//change it to
startActivity(intent1);
change your InformacijeM.java class:
public class InformacijeM extends AppCompatActivity {
EditText ImeTxt, MasaTxt ;
public static final String MyPREFERENCES = "MyPrefs";
SharedPreferences sharedPreferences;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_informacije_m);
sharedPreferences = getSharedPreferences(MyPREFERENCES, Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
// INICIRANJE VREDNOSTI
EditText ImeTxt = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.ImeInput);
final String str1 = ImeTxt.getText().toString();
EditText MasaTxt = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.MasaInput);
final String str2 = MasaTxt.getText().toString();
save_data(str1,str2);
ImageButton btn = (ImageButton)findViewById(R.id.strelica);
// PREBACIVANJE AKTIVITIJA
btn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent1 = new Intent(InformacijeM.this, RezultatM.class);
intent1.putExtra("keyIme", str1);
intent1.putExtra("keyMasa", str2);
Intent intent = new Intent(InformacijeM.this, StanjeM.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
});
}
public void save_data(String s1,String s2){
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = sharedPreferences.edit();
editor.putString("keyIme", s1);
editor.putString("keyMasa", s2);
editor.commit();
}
}

app crash when i click sign in buttom

here is my my signupactivity & main activity and their xml
public class SignupActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
protected EditText mUsername;
protected EditText mPassword;
protected EditText mEmail;
protected Button nbutton;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_signup);
mUsername = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.usernamefield);
mPassword = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.passwordtextfield);
mEmail = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.emailtextfield);
nbutton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.signbutton);
nbutton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view){
// Retrieve the text entered from the EditText
String usernametxt = mUsername.getText().toString();
String password = mPassword.getText().toString();
String email= mEmail.getText().toString();
// Force user to fill up the form
if (usernametxt.equals("") && password.equals("")) {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
"Please complete the sign up form",
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} else {
// Save new user data into Parse.com Data Storage
ParseUser newUser = new ParseUser();
newUser.setUsername(usernametxt);
newUser.setPassword(password);
newUser.setEmail(email);
newUser.signUpInBackground(new SignUpCallback() {
#Override
public void done(ParseException e) {
//SUCESS
if (e!= null){
AlertDialog.Builder builder=new AlertDialog.Builder(SignupActivity.this);
builder.setMessage(e.getMessage()).setTitle(R.string.signup_error_title).setPositiveButton(android.R.string.ok, null);
AlertDialog dialog = builder.create();
dialog.show();
}
else {
Intent intent= new Intent(SignupActivity.this,MainActivity.class);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK);
startActivity(intent);
}
}
});
}
}
});
}

We cannot help you until u post your logcat. As I don't have enough reputation to comment, I am writing this in answer.
Most common reason I saw people getting this error is:
They copy -paste this line from another class
R.id.usernamefield
So it will try to run the usernamefield of their other class which is not present here(note: eclipse will automatically import so they didn't get compilation errors). So to resolve your error you should delete the import and write proper R.id.xyz
But this is only shot in the dark until we see your logcat.

Make sure you have registered the App3Activity in AndroidManifest.

Calling different layers from the same class

I am here to seek some help with my code which i am facing a dead end road with. I'm trying to pass values from screen1.java using Intent to screen2.java. Passing the values is fine and I managed to get through it; however, when I check using if statement the program crash down. Here are my files, plzzzzzzzzzzz help

setContentView(R.layout.screen1);
//** button A
Button A = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnClickA);
A.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View arg0) {
Intent i = new Intent(screen1.this, screen2.class);
strKey = "NAME";
i.setClassName("packageName", "packageName.IntentClass");
String term = "Hello";
i.putExtra("packageName.term", term);
//i.putExtra(strKey, strValue);
startActivity(i);
}
});
//**

=====
The error is caused by these lines of code in screen2.java:
if(term.equalsIgnoreCase("Hello") || term.equalsIgnoreCase("Name")){
super.onCreate(icicle);
setContentView(R.layout.screen3);
Button b = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnClick3);
b.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View arg0) {
setResult(RESULT_OK);
finish();
}
});
}
else {
super.onCreate(icicle);
setContentView(R.layout.screen2);
Button b = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnClick2);
b.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View arg0) {
setResult(RESULT_OK);
finish();
}
});
}
**notice if I get rid of the entire IF statement and go with only the ELSE the program works fine.

i.setClassName("packageName", "packageName.IntentClass") is not required, if you are passing information to Intent constructor. Btw Is your Screen3 call working fine ?

You're passing the data incorrectly, try this:
public void onClick(View arg0) {
Intent i = new Intent(screen1.this, screen2.class);
strKey = "NAME";
//NO NEED FOR THIS, REMOVE -> i.setClassName("packageName", "packageName.IntentClass");
String term = "Hello";
//Add your string to a bundle:
Bundle b = new Bundle();
b.putString("packageName.term", term);
//Then add the bundle to your intent
i.putExtra(b);
//i.putExtra(strKey, strValue);
startActivity(i);
}
The way you retrieve it in screen2 activity is fine, I would just check if term is null:
if(term != null && (term.equalsIgnoreCase("Hello") || term.equalsIgnoreCase("Name"))){
...
