Android error java.util.ArrayList cannot be cast to android.os.Parcelable

Question

Im trying to pass a list of cart item from 1 activity to another activity so that user can have 1 last view about the order before they check out. the problem is when i run it there's an error java.util.ArrayList cannot be cast to android.os.Parcelable can somebody help me with this problem ?

This is the intent code

    Intent i = new Intent(CreateNewReceiptActivity.this,ViewFinalReceiptActivity.class);
                    i.putExtra("receiptcart", (Parcelable) itemList);
                startActivity(i);

and this is how i receive the intent

 itemList = (List<Item>) getIntent().getParcelableExtra("receiptcart");

this is the full code Cart Code:

public class CreateNewReceiptActivity extends BaseActivity {


    Task<QuerySnapshot> searchitemMerkfilter;
    FirebaseFirestore db = FirebaseFirestore.getInstance();

                    }
                });
    }

and the Receipt View code

public class ViewFinalReceiptActivity extends AppCompatActivity {


    @BindView(R.id.view_final_rc_recycler)
    RecyclerView recyclerView;
    @BindView(R.id.view_final_rc_invoice)
    TextView invoiceNumber;
    @BindView(R.id.view_final_rc_date)
    TextView invoiceDate;
    @BindView(R.id.view_final_rc_btn_print)
    ImageButton btnPrint;
    FirebaseFirestore db = FirebaseFirestore.getInstance();
    ItemAdapter adapter;
    Item item;
    List<Item> itemList;
    String type,price,qty,date;
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_view_final_receipt);
        itemList = (List<Item>) getIntent().getParcelableExtra("receiptcart");

       recyclerView.setHasFixedSize(true);
       recyclerView.setLayoutManager(new LinearLayoutManager(this));
        adapter = new ItemAdapter(this, itemList);
        recyclerView.setAdapter(adapter);
    }
}

it's duplicate question you can read this : [Android Class Parcelable with ArrayList](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/22446359/android-class-parcelable-with-arraylist) — Erfan Gholami, Jun 26 '19 at 03:12

Use putParcelableArrayList instead to put:

 /**
 * Inserts a List of Parcelable values into the mapping of this Bundle,
 * replacing any existing value for the given key.  Either key or value may
 * be null.
 *
 * @param key a String, or null
 * @param value an ArrayList of Parcelable objects, or null
 */
public void putParcelableArrayList(@Nullable String key,
        @Nullable ArrayList<? extends Parcelable> value) {
    unparcel();
    mMap.put(key, value);
    mFlags &= ~FLAG_HAS_FDS_KNOWN;
}

And getParcelableArrayList for get:

 /**
 * Returns the value associated with the given key, or null if
 * no mapping of the desired type exists for the given key or a null
 * value is explicitly associated with the key.
 *
 * @param key a String, or null
 * @return an ArrayList<T> value, or null
 */
@Nullable
public <T extends Parcelable> ArrayList<T> getParcelableArrayList(@Nullable String key) {
    unparcel();
    Object o = mMap.get(key);
    if (o == null) {
        return null;
    }
    try {
        return (ArrayList<T>) o;
    } catch (ClassCastException e) {
        typeWarning(key, o, "ArrayList", e);
        return null;
    }
}

Try i.putParcelableArrayListExtra("receiptcart", itemList); then when you go to grab it ArrayList<Item> newItems = getIntent().getParcelableArrayListExtra("receiptcart");

it runs but in the next activity when i try to get intent. the size is null(no data from the intent). but when i try to debug my putParcelableArrayListExtra there is data/size there – justin junias Jun 26 '19 at 03:18
class `Item` must implement `Parcelable`. @justinjunias check my answer please! – TaQuangTu Jun 26 '19 at 03:21

I am assuming List< Item > is a list of custom objects of class Item. If that is the case then in your Item class make sure it implements Serializable:

public class Item implements Serializable{

     . . . . . . 

     <autocreate methods required>

}

to pass the list:

myIntent.putExtra("LIST", (Serializable) itemList);
myIntent.startActivity();

to retrieve in other activity:

Intent i = getIntent();
list = (List<Item>) i.getSerializableExtra("LIST");

Make Item implement Parcelable:

class Item implements Parcelable{}

Send the list by putParcelableArrayListExtra:

intent.putParcelableArrayListExtra("key", ArrayList<T extends Parcelable> list);
startActivity(intent);

Get list from second activity by:

getIntent().getParcelableArrayListExtra("key");

i already implement parcelable. and already change the intent like this: Intent i = new Intent(CreateNewReceiptActivity.this,ViewFinalReceiptActivity.class); i.putParcelableArrayListExtra("receiptcart", (ArrayList extends Parcelable>) itemList); and in the other activity like this: Intent i = getIntent(); itemList = i.getParcelableArrayListExtra("receiptcart"); but still null – justin junias Jun 26 '19 at 03:23
yes it runs properly but because of null, my recyclerview doesnt work – justin junias Jun 26 '19 at 03:25
what null? intent? list? item? – TaQuangTu Jun 26 '19 at 03:27
the list is null when i try to get the list, but when pass the list has value – justin junias Jun 26 '19 at 03:28
the list is null or the list has no item? – TaQuangTu Jun 26 '19 at 03:34
the list has no item but when i debug the putExtra, there is a item – justin junias Jun 26 '19 at 07:53
