Android: send ArrayList of custom objects from fragment to activity using Parcerable
I have a problem, this works:
1) I have a custom class that implements Parcelable:
public class CityCoordinates implements Parcelable {
private double latitude;
private double longitude;
public double getLatitude() {
return latitude;
}
public void setLatitude(double latitude) {
this.latitude = latitude;
}
public double getLongitude() {
return longitude;
}
public void setLongitude(double longitude) {
this.longitude = longitude;
}
public CityCoordinates(double latitude, double longitude) {
this.latitude = latitude;
this.longitude = longitude;
}
public CityCoordinates(Parcel in) {
latitude = in.readDouble();
longitude = in.readDouble();
}
public int describeContents() {
return 0;
}
public void writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags) {
dest.writeDouble(latitude);
dest.writeDouble(longitude);
}
public static final Parcelable.Creator<CityCoordinates> CREATOR = new Parcelable.Creator<CityCoordinates>() {
public CityCoordinates createFromParcel(Parcel in) {
return new CityCoordinates(in);
}
public CityCoordinates[] newArray(int size) {
return new CityCoordinates[size];
}
};
}
2) I have a snippet with an ArrayList of listItems that I want to send to another activity:
ArrayList<CityCoordinates> listItems = new ArrayList<>();
...
Intent intent = new Intent(getActivity(), MapActivity.class);
intent.putParcelableArrayListExtra("key", listItems);
startActivity(intent);
3) This is how I retrieve the ParcelableArrayListExtra at the start:
public class MapActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
...
ArrayList<CityCoordinates> cityCoordinatesList = getIntent().getParcelableArrayListExtra("key");
But I get a NullPointerException when I try to get more information. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for the help!

In order to distract from intent, I had to do this inside the onCreate activity.
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.fragment_map_main);
...
ArrayList<CityCoordinates> cityCoordinatesList = getIntent().getParcelableArrayListExtra("key");
...
