android - How to pass values from RecycleAdapter to MainActivity or Other Activities

Question

I am working on a shopping cart app,Items are displayed as below.There is a plus, minus (+/-) buttons to choose the number of quantity.

If product quantity is changed, I need to pass "productname" and "quantity" to the main activity so that I could use them to prepare final cart. I got some suggestions to use database or some content providers,

I am not sure how to do it.., please help

How to do this,

Answer 1

You should create interface, and activity implements this interface.

public interface OnItemClick {
    void onClick (String value);
}

When you create adapter (last parameter is this interface)

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements OnItemClick {
 recycleAdapter = new RecycleAdapter(MainActivity.this,onlineData, this);
            recyclerView.setAdapter(recycleAdapter);

 @Override
 void onClick (String value){
// value this data you receive when increment() / decrement() called
}

// In Adapter

  private OnItemClick mCallback;

RecycleAdapter(Context context,List<HashMap<String, String>>     onlineData,OnItemClick listener){
    this.onlineData = onlineData;
    this.context = context;
    this.mCallback = listener;
 }
    ....

    public void increment(){
        int currentNos = Integer.parseInt(quantity.getText().toString()) ;
        quantity.setText(String.valueOf(++currentNos));
        mCallback.onClick(quantity.getText().toString());
    }

    public void decrement(){
        int currentNos = Integer.parseInt(quantity.getText().toString()) ;
        quantity.setText(String.valueOf(--currentNos));
        mCallback.onClick(quantity.getText().toString());
    }
