Hi there,

I'm trying to write a own std Telephoneapp with Phonebook, Dialpad etc. using SIP ... but this part is not the problem.

I have the problem with TabHost as my Launcher and the Activitys running in it.

Main code looks something like this:



It's working fine I can switch Tabs an work within the classes/activities as intended etc. Now I want to switch from tab2 to tab1 when one of the phonebook entries is selected. In a further step I want to pass the the phone number to the Activity running in "tab1". So here are the my questions ^^

How can I switch the Tabs when a button in one of the Activities is pressed. (Note: tabHost.setCurrentTab() does not work cause I can't retrieve tabHost within those Activities - at least not yet)

And how can pass data - lets say an integer - from one Activity to another. I'm a little confused with those Intents, BroadcastReceifer etc. so some clarification on this two questions would be nice.

Thanks in ragards, Tol

Hi,

to pass data between Activities in the same Application extend the class android.app.Application. In the Android.Manifest.xml set your derived class with the android:name="MyApplication" attribute of the application tag.
You can get the object with getApplication in each activity.


Cheers,
