From your FirstActivity call the SecondActivity using startActivityForResult() method
For example:
int ACTIVITY_CODE= 1
Intent i = new Intent(this, SecondActivity.class);
startActivityForResult(i, ACTIVITY_CODE);
In your SecondActivity set the data which you want to return back to FirstActivity.
For example: In SecondActivity if you want to send back data:
Intent returnIntent = new Intent();
returnIntent.putExtra("result",result);
setResult(Activity.RESULT_OK,returnIntent);
finish();
Now in your FirstActivity class write following code for the onActivityResult() method.
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == ACTIVITY_CODE) {
if(resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK){
String result=data.getStringExtra("result");
}
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_CANCELED) {
//Write your code if there's no result
}
}
}
From your FirstActivity call the SecondActivity using `startActivityForResult()` method
eg:
Intent i = new Intent(this, SecondActivity.class);
startActivityForResult(i, 1);
In your SecondActivity set the data which you want to return back to FirstActivity, If you don't want to return back don't set any.
eg: In secondActivity if you want to send back data:
Intent returnIntent = new Intent();
returnIntent.putExtra("result",result);
setResult(RESULT_OK,returnIntent);
finish();
if you don't want to return data:
Intent returnIntent = new Intent();
setResult(RESULT_CANCELED, returnIntent);
finish();
Now in your FirstActivity class write following code for onActivityResult() method
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
if (requestCode == 1) {
if(resultCode == RESULT_OK){
String result=data.getStringExtra("result");
}
if (resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED) {
//Write your code if there's no result
}
}
}
Hope this helps.
