  1. POGet result from SearchManager activity to Main Activity in android
    text
    copied!<p>Use Case: Activity A is main activity. Whereas Activity B is SearcActivity (SearchManager). Activity B is ListActivity, so whatever result comes, result is displayed in the list. Once user clicks on the list, I want to get that list selected item to be returned to ActivityA.</p> <p>What I did? I could call SearchActivity on button using "onSearchRequested()". In ActivityB, I am displaying searchresult via "setListAdapter(adapter)". Using "onListItemClick", I can get what option in list was selected by user. </p> <p>Now I tried sending result back to ActivityA by following code</p> <pre><code>Intent intent = new Intent(); Bundle bundle = new Bundle(); bundle.putString("item", l.getItemAtPosition(position).toString()); intent.putExtras(bundle); setResult(RESULT_OK, getIntent() ); finish(); </code></pre> <p>And in ActivityA, I tried reading the result in "onActivityResult".</p> <pre><code>Bundle bundle = data.getExtras(); String strItem = bundle.getString("item"); AlertDialog alertDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(this).create(); alertDialog.setTitle("Item Selected"); alertDialog.setMessage("Item = " + strItem); alertDialog.setButton("OK", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() { public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) { return; } }); alertDialog.show(); </code></pre> <p>Problem: I noticed that, once Activity A is resumed, "onActivityResult" is not called at all. Hence I am not seeing any dialog. Plus I can't verify whether SearchActivity actually sends anything to ActivityA.</p> <p>So friends, how can I capture the data sent by ActivityB.</p>
