Explicit Intent Project

Create a project named ExplicitIntentProject that uses an explicit intent to open a second activity. You will have to add a second .java source code file to your project for this activity. You may create a second XML layout file as well. Also, be sure to edit your project's manifest file so that the project is able to use this activity.

Also, use the putExtra method to send data from the first activity to the second activity along with the intent as explained at http://www.vogella.com/tutorials/AndroidIntent/article.html#intentdatatransfer and use that data in a meaningful way.

Then send result data as feedback from the second activity back to the first activity which must use of the hasExtra method to collect and make use of that data in a meaningful way.

Part of your grade for this project will be based on the instructor's assessment of your classroom productivity that includes your ability to independently learn and apply information from online class resources without help from others and without disturbing the work of others in class.

You must do the following:

  1. Upload the project to your Google site with the apk file name ExplicitIntentProjectJohnD.apk. You must have a full explanation & description of your app on your Google site apps page. Make sure that your app has a unique app_name defined in the strings.xml file and that the package has a unique name.

Call the instructor to your computer when you are finished in order for him to give you a runtime grade.
