Hi all, I am working with Android (yet again). Because of the way Android works, you cannot have a dialog created that takes arguments from the parent; instead, you use a data structure called an intent, in which you put everything the child needs to run. However, I have a non-serializable object (intents only accept primitives, strings, and serialized objects) which the child needs to access but which is created in the parent. I want to know how I can give two separate classes, one of which is the main class, access to the same instance of an object? As a simple example, say we have object o, in class c. Class a is the parent and has in it the line: c obje=new c(); Now, class a's child, class b, needs access not just to class c, but to the specific obj instance of c that was made in a. Is there a way to let both classes share the same instance of an object without serializing? I maybe could import a inside b, but a is the main file (runs at application start) so I feel like that would not be a great way of doing things. Any ideas or thoughts would be greatly appreciated. I can post the android code if you want, but I am not sure how much good it would do. -- Have a great day, Alex (msg sent from GMail website) mehgcap@xxxxxxxxx; http://www.facebook.com/mehgcap __________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind
