title: Passing JSON array between activities through intent
body: <p>This has been asked once before but that didn't work for me at all. So I thought I'll just ask again.</p>
  
  <p>I have a JSONarray that I want to pass to my second activity using an intent.</p>
  
  <p>This is a part of my code which connects to a mysql database and puts data about a user in a JSONarray. This all works so far.</p>
  
  <pre><code>try{
      BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is,"iso-8859-1"),8);
      sb = new StringBuilder();
      sb.append(reader.readLine() + "\n");
  
      String line="0";
      while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
          sb.append(line + "\n");
      }
      is.close();
      result=sb.toString();
  
      }catch(Exception e){
          Log.e("log_tag", "Error converting result "+e.toString());
      }
  
  String ct_user;
  String ct_pass;
  
  Intent personal = new Intent(Home.this, Loggedin.class);
  
  try{
      jArray = new JSONArray(result);
      JSONObject json_data=null;
      json_data = jArray.getJSONObject(0);
      ct_user = json_data.getString("user");
      ct_pass = json_data.getString("pass");
  
  
      if (passwordstring.equals(ct_pass)){
  
          Bundle b = new Bundle();                
          b.putString("userdata",json_data.toString());
          personal.putExtras(b);
  
          startActivity(personal);
              }
      }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'd like to send my complete JSONarray through an intent to my second activity (Loggedin). So that I can display for example ct_email = json_data.getString("email"); which is another value in the array that the first activity gets from mysql.</p>
  
  <p>This was the other question about this subject:
  <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7686531/passing-jsonarray-from-1-activity-to-another">passing jsonarray from 1 activity to another</a></p>
  
  <p>That solution didn't work for me because in the second activity errors kept saying it couldn't convert bundle to intent, I tried everything I could think of.</p>
  
  <pre><code>Intent b = getIntent().getExtras();
  String userdata=b.getString("userdata");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
  
  <hr>
  
  <p>EDIT</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for the quick answers guys. I'm new to Stackoverflow so pardon my mistakes regarding code markings etc. I try to do it all properly.</p>
  
  <p>But it's still not working for me. This is part of my second activity:</p>
  
  <pre><code>public class Loggedin extends Activity {
  
  
  @Override
  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
      super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
      setContentView(R.layout.loggedin);
  
      myfunction();
  
  }
  
  public void myfunction(){
  
      Bundle b = getIntent().getExtras();
      String userdataArray = b.getString("userdata");
  
      String ct_email;
      ct_email = userdataArray.getString("email");
  
  
  }
  
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The error is the "method getString(String) is undefined for the type String".
  I must be doing something stupid.</p>
