Finally, we need to update the length of the array returned in the Creator's 'newArray()' method. Use the size parameter passed in.
public class VideoGame implements Parcelable {
public String mTitle = "";
public int mYear = 0;
public VideoGame() {
// intentionally blank
}
// getters and setters omitted for brevity!
@Override
public int describeContents() {
return 0;
}
@Override
public void writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags) {
dest.writeString(mTitle);
dest.writeInt(mYear);
}
public VideoGame(Parcel in) {
mTitle = in.readString();
mYear = in.readInt();
}
public static final Creator<VideoGame> CREATOR = new Creator<VideoGame>() {
@Override
public VideoGame createFromParcel(Parcel source) {
return new VideoGame(source);
}
@Override
public VideoGame[] newArray(int size) {
VideoGame videoGame = new VideoGame[size];
return new VideoGame[0];
}
};
}

Rather than returning a VideoGame array of the size 0, we want to return a VideoGame array of the size passed in.
In this example, an int size
is passed in - see if you can figure out where this size can be used in order to make an array of the size requested.
Hope it helps and if you have any problems on the way, give me a shout :)
