Problem sending notification with parameters

Question

I’m having problems in an android app, when trying to send a notification everything happens 100% until you arrive at the opening of the notification Activity.

This call Activity needs a "store" parameter and I am unable to send it via notification.

Look at the sources below:

private void Notify(String notificationTitle, String notificationMessage){
    NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager) getSystemService(NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
    @SuppressWarnings("deprecation")

    Notification notification = new Notification(R.drawable.header_logo,"New Message", System.currentTimeMillis());
    Intent notificationIntent = new Intent(NewReviewActivity.this,ReviewActivity.class);
        notificationIntent.putExtra("store",String.valueOf(store.getStore_id()));

    PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(NewReviewActivity.this, 0, notificationIntent, 0);


    notification.vibrate = new long[]{150, 300, 150, 600};
    notification.flags = Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL;
    notification.setLatestEventInfo(NewReviewActivity.this, notificationTitle, notificationMessage, pendingIntent);
    notificationManager.notify(9999, notification);
}

And my logcat:

  java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.projects.storefinder/com.projects.activities.ReviewActivity}: java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to com.models.Store

It is clear that the problem is that the parameter is not being properly passed.

Could you help me?

The problem is that you are sending a String and expect to receive a Store type object. What you send as String is the Store ID. You can probably recover that Store from the sent ID. Try to change the error line to:

String id = getIntent().getStringExtra("store");
