In this tutorial I will show you how to pass value from one activity to another activity in Android app using C# with Xamarin.
Steps
- · Create new project
- · Expand resource folder
- Click on layout folder as shown below image
- · Create two layout Main.axml and Datascreen.axml.
- · Create two activity Mainactivity and activity2.
In Main.axml paste below code
<?xml version=“1.0“ encoding=“utf-8“?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android=“http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android“
android:orientation=“vertical“
android:layout_width=“match_parent“
android:layout_height=“match_parent“>
<EditText
android:layout_width=“match_parent“
android:layout_height=“wrap_content“
android:id=“@+id/editText1“ />
<Button
android:text=“Send Second Activity“
android:layout_width=“match_parent“
android:layout_height=“wrap_content“
android:id=“@+id/button1“ />
</LinearLayout>
DataScreen.axml paste below code.
<?xml version=“1.0“ encoding=“utf-8“?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android=“http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android“
android:orientation=“vertical“
android:layout_width=“match_parent“
android:layout_height=“match_parent“>
<EditText
android:layout_width=“match_parent“
android:layout_height=“wrap_content“
android:id=“@+id/editText2“ />
<Button
android:text=“Send to Main Activity“
android:layout_width=“match_parent“
android:layout_height=“wrap_content“
android:id=“@+id/button2“ />
</LinearLayout>
MainActivity.cs
public class MainActivity : Activity
{
Button btnclick;
EditText textpass;
protected override voidOnCreate(Bundle bundle)
{
base.OnCreate(bundle);
// Set our view from the “main” layout resource
SetContentView (Resource.Layout.Main);
btnclick = FindViewById<Button>(Resource.Id.button1);
textpass = FindViewById<EditText>(Resource.Id.editText1);
btnclick.Click += btn_click;
string name = Intent.GetStringExtra(“Name”);
textpass.Text = ” , “ + name;
}
private voidbtn_click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (textpass.Text != “”)
{
Intent j = new Intent(this, typeof(Activity2));
j.PutExtra(“Name”, textpass.Text.ToString());
StartActivity(j);
}
else
{
Toast.MakeText(this, “Please Enter Value”, ToastLength.Short).Show();
}
}
}
Activity2.cs
public class Activity2 : Activity
{
Button btnsclick;
EditText textpass2;
protected override voidOnCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
base.OnCreate(savedInstanceState);
// Create your application here
SetContentView(Resource.Layout.DataScreen);
btnsclick = FindViewById<Button>(Resource.Id.button2);
textpass2 = FindViewById<EditText>(Resource.Id.editText2);
string name = Intent.GetStringExtra(“Name”);
textpass2.Text = ” , “ + name;
btnsclick.Click += btns_click;
}
private voidbtns_click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (textpass2.Text != “”)
{
Intent j = new Intent(this, typeof(MainActivity));
j.PutExtra(“Name”, textpass2.Text.ToString());
StartActivity(j);
}
else
{
Toast.MakeText(this, “Please Enter Value”, ToastLength.Short).Show();
}
}
}
