Passing File with intent, how do i retrieve it

Issue

Here is what I am passing. pictureFile is a File

Intent intent = new Intent (context, ShowPicActivity.class);
intent.putExtra("picture", pictureFile);

In the next activity which one of the getters do I use to get it?

Intent intent = getIntent(); .....?

Solution

Try the following:

YourPictureClass picture = (YourPictureClass)getIntent().getExtras().get("picture");

By calling getExtras() in your Intent you get an instance of Bundle.
With the normal get() in class Bundle you can read every Object you pass to the calling Intent. The only thing you have to do is to parse it back to the class your object is an instance of.
