Android RecyclerView addition & removal of items - java

I have a RecyclerView with an TextView text box and a cross button ImageView. I have a button outside of the recyclerview that makes the cross button ImageView visible / gone.
I'm looking to remove an item from the recylerview, when that items cross button ImageView is pressed.
My adapter:
public class MyAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<MyAdapter.ViewHolder> implements View.OnClickListener, View.OnLongClickListener {
private ArrayList<String> mDataset;
private static Context sContext;
public MyAdapter(Context context, ArrayList<String> myDataset) {
mDataset = myDataset;
sContext = context;
}
#Override
public MyAdapter.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent,int viewType) {
View v = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.my_text_view, parent, false);
ViewHolder holder = new ViewHolder(v);
holder.mNameTextView.setOnClickListener(MyAdapter.this);
holder.mNameTextView.setOnLongClickListener(MyAdapter.this);
holder.mNameTextView.setTag(holder);
return holder;
}
#Override
public void onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder holder, int position) {
holder.mNameTextView.setText(mDataset.get(position));
}
#Override
public int getItemCount() {
return mDataset.size();
}
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
ViewHolder holder = (ViewHolder) view.getTag();
if (view.getId() == holder.mNameTextView.getId()) {
Toast.makeText(sContext, holder.mNameTextView.getText(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
#Override
public boolean onLongClick(View view) {
ViewHolder holder = (ViewHolder) view.getTag();
if (view.getId() == holder.mNameTextView.getId()) {
mDataset.remove(holder.getPosition());
notifyDataSetChanged();
Toast.makeText(sContext, "Item " + holder.mNameTextView.getText() + " has been removed from list",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
return false;
}
public static class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
public TextView mNumberRowTextView;
public TextView mNameTextView;
public ViewHolder(View v) {
super(v);
mNameTextView = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.nameTextView);
}
}
}
My layout is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:gravity="center_vertical"
android:id="#+id/layout">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/nameTextView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="18sp"
android:padding="5dp"
android:background="#drawable/greyline"/>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/crossButton"
android:layout_width="16dp"
android:layout_height="16dp"
android:visibility="gone"
android:layout_marginLeft="50dp"
android:src="#drawable/cross" />
</LinearLayout>
How can I get something like an onClick working for my crossButton ImageView? Is there a better way? Maybe changing the whole item onclick into a remove the item? The recyclerview shows a list of locations that need to be edited. Any technical advice or comments / suggestions on best implementation would be hugely appreciated.

I have done something similar.
In your MyAdapter:
public class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder implements View.OnClickListener{
public CardView mCardView;
public TextView mTextViewTitle;
public TextView mTextViewContent;
public ImageView mImageViewContentPic;
public ImageView imgViewRemoveIcon;
public ViewHolder(View v) {
super(v);
mCardView = (CardView) v.findViewById(R.id.card_view);
mTextViewTitle = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.item_title);
mTextViewContent = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.item_content);
mImageViewContentPic = (ImageView) v.findViewById(R.id.item_content_pic);
//......
imgViewRemoveIcon = (ImageView) v.findViewById(R.id.remove_icon);
mTextViewContent.setOnClickListener(this);
imgViewRemoveIcon.setOnClickListener(this);
v.setOnClickListener(this);
mTextViewContent.setOnLongClickListener(new View.OnLongClickListener() {
#Override
public boolean onLongClick(View view) {
if (mItemClickListener != null) {
mItemClickListener.onItemClick(view, getPosition());
}
return false;
}
});
}
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
//Log.d("View: ", v.toString());
//Toast.makeText(v.getContext(), mTextViewTitle.getText() + " position = " + getPosition(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
if(v.equals(imgViewRemoveIcon)){
removeAt(getPosition());
}else if (mItemClickListener != null) {
mItemClickListener.onItemClick(v, getPosition());
}
}
}
public void setOnItemClickListener(final OnItemClickListener mItemClickListener) {
this.mItemClickListener = mItemClickListener;
}
public void removeAt(int position) {
mDataset.remove(position);
notifyItemRemoved(position);
notifyItemRangeChanged(position, mDataSet.size());
}
Edit:
getPosition() is deprecated now, use getAdapterPosition() instead.

first of all, item should be removed from the list!
mDataSet.remove(getAdapterPosition());
then:
notifyItemRemoved(getAdapterPosition());
notifyItemRangeChanged(getAdapterPosition(), mDataSet.size()-getAdapterPosition());

if still item not removed use this magic method :)
private void deleteItem(int position) {
mDataSet.remove(position);
notifyItemRemoved(position);
notifyItemRangeChanged(position, mDataSet.size());
holder.itemView.setVisibility(View.GONE);
}
Kotlin version
private fun deleteItem(position: Int) {
mDataSet.removeAt(position)
notifyItemRemoved(position)
notifyItemRangeChanged(position, mDataSet.size)
holder.itemView.visibility = View.GONE
}

The Problem
RecyclerView was built to display data in an efficient and responsive manner.
Usually you have a dataset which is passed to your adapter and is looped through to display your data.
Here your dataset is:
private ArrayList<String> mDataset;
The point is that RecyclerView is not connected to your dataset, and therefore is unaware of your dataset changes.
It just reads data once and displays it through your ViewHolder, but a change to your dataset will not propagate to your UI.
This means that whenever you make a deletion/addition on your data list, those changes won't be reflected to your RecyclerView directly. (i.e. you remove the item at index 5, but the 6th element remains in your recycler view).
A (old school) solution
RecyclerView exposes some methods for you to communicate your dataset changes, reflecting those changes directly on your list items.
The standard Android APIs allow you to bind the process of data removal (for the purpose of the question) with the process of View removal.
The methods we are talking about are:
notifyItemChanged(index: Int)
notifyItemInserted(index: Int)
notifyItemRemoved(index: Int)
notifyItemRangeChanged(startPosition: Int, itemCount: Int)
notifyItemRangeInserted(startPosition: Int, itemCount: Int)
notifyItemRangeRemoved(startPosition: Int, itemCount: Int)
A Complete (old school) Solution
If you don't properly specify what happens on each addition, change or removal of items, RecyclerView list items are animated unresponsively because of a lack of information about how to move the different views around the list.
The following code will allow RecyclerView to precisely play the animation with regards to the view that is being removed (And as a side note, it fixes any IndexOutOfBoundExceptions, marked by the stacktrace as "data inconsistency").
void remove(position: Int) {
dataset.removeAt(position)
notifyItemChanged(position)
notifyItemRangeRemoved(position, 1)
}
Under the hood, if we look into RecyclerView we can find documentation explaining that the second parameter we pass to notifyItemRangeRemoved is the number of items that are removed from the dataset, not the total number of items (As wrongly reported in some others information sources).
/**
* Notify any registered observers that the <code>itemCount</code> items previously
* located at <code>positionStart</code> have been removed from the data set. The items
* previously located at and after <code>positionStart + itemCount</code> may now be found
* at <code>oldPosition - itemCount</code>.
*
* <p>This is a structural change event. Representations of other existing items in the data
* set are still considered up to date and will not be rebound, though their positions
* may be altered.</p>
*
* #param positionStart Previous position of the first item that was removed
* #param itemCount Number of items removed from the data set
*/
public final void notifyItemRangeRemoved(int positionStart, int itemCount) {
mObservable.notifyItemRangeRemoved(positionStart, itemCount);
}
Open source solutions
You can let a library like FastAdapter, Epoxy or Groupie take care of the business, and even use an observable recycler view with data binding.
New ListAdapter
Google recently introduced a new way of writing the recycler view adapter, which works really well and supports reactive data.
It is a new approach and requires a bit of refactoring, but it is 100% worth switching to it, as it makes everything smoother.
here is the documentation, and here a medium article explaining it

Here are some visual supplemental examples. See my fuller answer for examples of adding and removing a range.
Add single item
Add "Pig" at index 2.
String item = "Pig";
int insertIndex = 2;
data.add(insertIndex, item);
adapter.notifyItemInserted(insertIndex);
Remove single item
Remove "Pig" from the list.
int removeIndex = 2;
data.remove(removeIndex);
adapter.notifyItemRemoved(removeIndex);

Possibly a duplicate answer but quite useful for me. You can implement the method given below in RecyclerView.Adapter<RecyclerView.ViewHolder>
and can use this method as per your requirements, I hope it will work for you
public void removeItem(#NonNull Object object) {
mDataSetList.remove(object);
notifyDataSetChanged();
}

I tried all the above answers, but inserting or removing items to recyclerview causes problem with the position in the dataSet. Ended up using delete(getAdapterPosition()); inside the viewHolder which worked great at finding the position of items.

The problem I had was I was removing an item from the list that was no longer associated with the adapter to make sure you are modifying the correct adapter you can implement a method like this in your adapter:
public void removeItemAtPosition(int position) {
items.remove(position);
}
And call it in your fragment or activity like this:
adapter.removeItemAtPosition(position);

public class MyAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<MyAdapter.MyViewHolder> {
private Context context;
private List<cardview_widgets> list;
public MyAdapter(Context context, List<cardview_widgets> list) {
this.context = context;
this.list = list;
}
#NonNull
#Override
public MyViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(#NonNull ViewGroup viewGroup, int i) {
View view = LayoutInflater.from(this.context).inflate(R.layout.fragment1_one_item,
viewGroup, false);
return new MyViewHolder(view);
}
public static class MyViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
TextView txtValue;
TextView txtCategory;
ImageView imgInorEx;
ImageView imgCategory;
TextView txtDate;
public MyViewHolder(#NonNull View itemView) {
super(itemView);
txtValue= itemView.findViewById(R.id.id_values);
txtCategory= itemView.findViewById(R.id.id_category);
imgInorEx= itemView.findViewById(R.id.id_inorex);
imgCategory= itemView.findViewById(R.id.id_imgcategory);
txtDate= itemView.findViewById(R.id.id_date);
}
}
#NonNull
#Override
public void onBindViewHolder(#NonNull final MyViewHolder myViewHolder, int i) {
myViewHolder.txtValue.setText(String.valueOf(list.get(i).getValuee()));
myViewHolder.txtCategory.setText(list.get(i).getCategory());
myViewHolder.imgInorEx.setBackgroundColor(list.get(i).getImg_inorex());
myViewHolder.imgCategory.setImageResource(list.get(i).getImg_category());
myViewHolder.txtDate.setText(list.get(i).getDate());
myViewHolder.itemView.setOnLongClickListener(new View.OnLongClickListener() {
#Override
public boolean onLongClick(View v) {
list.remove(myViewHolder.getAdapterPosition());
notifyDataSetChanged();
return false;
}
});
}
#Override
public int getItemCount() {
return list.size();
}}
i hope this help you.

if you want to remove item you should do this:
first remove item:
phones.remove(position);
in next step you should notify your recycler adapter that you remove an item by this code:
notifyItemRemoved(position);
notifyItemRangeChanged(position, phones.size());
but if you change an item do this:
first change a parameter of your object like this:
Service s = services.get(position);
s.done = "Cancel service";
services.set(position,s);
or new it like this :
Service s = new Service();
services.set(position,s);
then notify your recycler adapter that you modify an item by this code:
notifyItemChanged(position);
notifyItemRangeChanged(position, services.size());
hope helps you.

String str = arrayList.get(position);
arrayList.remove(str);
MyAdapter.this.notifyDataSetChanged();

To Method onBindViewHolder Write This Code
holder.remove.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
Cursor del=dbAdapter.ExecuteQ("delete from TblItem where Id="+values.get(position).getId());
values.remove(position);
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
});

Incase Anyone wants to implement something like this in Main class instead of Adapter class, you can use:
public void removeAt(int position) {
peopleListUser.remove(position);
friendsListRecycler.getAdapter().notifyItemRemoved(position);
friendsListRecycler.getAdapter().notifyItemRangeChanged(position, peopleListUser.size());
}
where friendsListRecycler is the Adapter name

you must to remove this item from arrayList of data
myDataset.remove(holder.getAdapterPosition());
notifyItemRemoved(holder.getAdapterPosition());
notifyItemRangeChanged(holder.getAdapterPosition(), getItemCount());

//////// set the position
holder.cancel.setTag(position);
///// click to remove an item from recycler view and an array list
holder.cancel.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
int positionToRemove = (int)view.getTag(); //get the position of the view to delete stored in the tag
mDataset.remove(positionToRemove);
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
});

make interface into custom adapter class and handling click event on recycler view..
onItemClickListner onItemClickListner;
public void setOnItemClickListner(CommentsAdapter.onItemClickListner onItemClickListner) {
this.onItemClickListner = onItemClickListner;
}
public interface onItemClickListner {
void onClick(Contact contact);//pass your object types.
}
#Override
public void onBindViewHolder(ItemViewHolder holder, int position) {
// below code handle click event on recycler view item.
holder.itemView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
onItemClickListner.onClick(mContectList.get(position));
}
});
}
after define adapter and bind into recycler view called below code..
adapter.setOnItemClickListner(new CommentsAdapter.onItemClickListner() {
#Override
public void onClick(Contact contact) {
contectList.remove(contectList.get(contectList.indexOf(contact)));
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
});
}

In case you are wondering like I did where can we get the adapter position in the method getadapterposition(); its in viewholder object.so you have to put your code like this
mdataset.remove(holder.getadapterposition());

In the activity:
mAdapter.updateAt(pos, text, completed);
mAdapter.removeAt(pos);
In the your adapter:
void removeAt(int position) {
list.remove(position);
notifyItemRemoved(position);
notifyItemRangeChanged(position, list.size());
}
void updateAt(int position, String text, Boolean completed) {
TodoEntity todoEntity = list.get(position);
todoEntity.setText(text);
todoEntity.setCompleted(completed);
notifyItemChanged(position);
}

in 2022, after trying everything the whole internet given below is the answer
In MyViewHolder class
private myAdapter adapter;
inside MyViewHolder function initalise adapter
adapter = myAdapter.this
inside onclick
int position = getAdapterPosition()
list.remove(position);
adapter.notifyItemRemoved(position);

Android RecyclerView : Memory usage increases during scrolling if 'setIsRecyclabe(false)' is not used

In my android application(Java) I am displaying a list of around 1800 contacts in a recyclerview. While doing a memory profile it was found that when scrolling the recycler view the memory usage was increasing rapidly. So I found this question here which was mentioning the same problem and tried out the solution which was to setIsRecyclable(false) in onBindViewHolder and it worked. The profiling results are given below.
Case 1 : setIsRecyclable(False) not used
Initial memory usage : ~ 40M
[ Java=5.9M Native=5M Graphics=20.3M Stack=0.3M Code=5.3M Others =0.8M ]
Peak memory usage : ~ 345M
[ Java=187.5M Native=39.1M Graphics=101.5M Stack=0.4M Code=11.6M Others =6.5M ]
Also the peak memory usage was found to increase with increase in number of items in the list. After the continuous scrolling is stopped for a while the memory usage does come down but only to around 162 MB.
Case 2 : after adding setIsRecyclable(False) to onBindViewHolder
Initial memory usage : ~ 42M
[ Java=5.8M Native=5.5M Graphics=20.2M Stack=0.3M Code=9.4M Others =0.8M ]
Peak memory usage : ~ 100M
[ Java=43.9M Native=9.7M Graphics=32.6M Stack=0.4M Code=11.7M Others =2.2M ]
Also, in this case, memory usage was not affected significantly by increasing number of items in list. Although peak memory usage is about 100MB the average stays at around 70 MB for most of the time which is even better.

* 'App.personList' is a static arrayList holding the list of contacts and App is the ViewModel class.
* adapter1 is the only adapter of interest. Please avoid adapter2(handles another small list)

Question
So 'setIsRecyclable(False)' is supposed to prevent recycling of views and this should be causing more memory usage. But instead it is showing the opposite behavior. Also i think the app will surely crash if it has to handle an even larger list without using setIsRecyclable(false). Why is this happening ?
getItemId(int) and getItemViewType(int) should NEVER return position itself, you're violating recyclerview contract by forcing it to create new viewholders for every single position intead of re-using existing views.
This is the cause of your issue - every position has unique itemViewType so they start to fill up recycledViewPool very rapidly since they're only being inserted and never being taken out of it. setIsRecyclable(False) circumvents the issue by not putting them in recyclerViewPool but that doesn't fix the problem of lack of view recycling.
Just delete getItemId and getItemViewType overrides because you're not using them properly.

How to handle dynamically created buttons in android?

I am new to android development, in fact its my first application. I have created a dynamic layout in my project based on Json. Each object includes an "id" key and some more string keys. every object in my json should be transformed to a cardview inside a recylcerview and each cardview has a button.
My problem is handling these dynamic buttons. Is it possible to determine which button was clicked?
View.id is an integer, and you shouldn't set arbitrary values to it if the View is generated dinamically, what you can use though is View.tag. So you can assign the id defined in the JSON to tag and then check the tag value when the View is clicked. E.g.
val view1 = View(context)
view1.tag = "id from JSON 1"
view1.setOnClickListener(this::onViewClicked)
val view2 = View(context)
view2.tag = "id from JSON 2"
view2.setOnClickListener(this::onViewClicked)
// ...
private fun onViewClicked(view: View){
val jsonId = view.tag as? String
// ...
}
If your min sdk level at least 17, another option would be to generate ids dinamically with View.generateViewId() and store them in a Map together with your JSON ids
Use a Tag to differentiate the buttons. Add OnClickListener to all Button and set different String tag to button.
button.setOnClickListener(this);
Add ClickListener
#Override
public void onClick(View view){
String tag = (String)view.getTag();
if(tag.equals(tag1)){
// action here
}
//.......
.....
}
Yeah pretty straight, all you have to do is to give them a unique id
I assume you must have a JSON array for dynamic buttons creation.
sample code
public Button createButton(Context context,String text,int buttonNo){
//here set the properties
Button bt = new Button(context);
bt.setText(text);
bt.setId(buttonNo);
bt.setTag(buttonNo);
bt.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
#Override
public void onClick(View view){
//handle the button click, unique id , you can use to differentiate
int id = view.getId();
}
});
return bt;
}
call this above method in for loop or as many times you want to create.
you can also set a tag as mentioned above to store more information.
Finally I put the OnClickListener in onBindViewHolder event inside my customAdapter class as below:
public class CustomAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<CustomAdapter.ViewHolder> implements View.OnClickListener {
private Context context;
private List<MyData> my_data;
public CustomAdapter(Context context, List<MyData> my_data) {
this.context = context;
this.my_data = my_data;
}
#Override
public ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
View itemView = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.card,parent,false);
return new ViewHolder(itemView);
}
#Override
public void onBindViewHolder(final ViewHolder holder, int position) {
holder.match_date.setText(my_data.get(position).getMatch_date());
holder.home_name.setText(my_data.get(position).getHome_name());
holder.away_name.setText(my_data.get(position).getAway_name());
holder.button.setId(my_data.get(position).getId());
holder.button.setTag(my_data.get(position).getStringId());
holder.button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
int intHomeGoals = Integer.parseInt(holder.edtHomeGoals.getText().toString());
int intAwayGoals = Integer.parseInt(holder.edtAwayGoals.getText().toString());
if (intHomeGoals == intAwayGoals)
{
Toast.makeText(context, "00000", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
});
Glide.with(context).load(my_data.get(position).getHome_logo()).into(holder.home_logo);
Glide.with(context).load(my_data.get(position).getAway_logo()).into(holder.away_logo);
}

Selected items in RecyclerView change on scrolling

I have a RecyclerView with each element representing an event. I want to let the user select events by clicking it. Once selected, the event(s) and a report button will be colored:
UI before performing a click: click here.
UI After performing a click: click here.
It's pretty simple and allegedly works; I set an OnClickListener for each ViewHolder which is responsible for coloring the item, and when fired it's triggering another event in the owning activity named onOccurrenceSelected, which is responsible for changing the button's state.
However, when scrolling through the RecyclerView's items, other irrelevant items are colored like their OnClickListener was triggered (though it wasn't), and when scrolling back the selected event is colored as not selected. While this is happening, the only event that's supposed to color the items is not triggered.
Any explanation for such behavior? Thanks!
EDIT: Here are some relevant code from the adapter:
private List<Occurrence> mDataSet;
private Activity activity;
public <OccurrencesActivity extends OnOccurrenceSelectedListener> OccurrencesAdapter(OccurrencesActivity occurrencesActivity, List<Occurrence> occurrences) {
this.activity = (android.app.Activity) occurrencesActivity;
mDataSet = occurrences;
}
#Override
public void onBindViewHolder(final ViewHolder holder, final int position) {
Occurrence instance = mDataSet.get(position);
...
setOnClickListener(holder, instance);
}
private void setOnClickListener(final ViewHolder holder, final Occurrence occurrence) {
holder.itemView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
if (!occurrence.isSelected()) {
holder.itemView.setBackgroundColor(App.getContext().getResources().getColor(R.color.turquoise));
holder.titleTextView.setTextColor(App.getContext().getResources().getColor(R.color.white));
holder.statusTextView.setTextColor(App.getContext().getResources().getColor(R.color.white));
holder.dateTextView.setTextColor(App.getContext().getResources().getColor(R.color.white));
holder.timeTextView.setTextColor(App.getContext().getResources().getColor(R.color.white));
} else {
holder.itemView.setBackgroundColor(App.getContext().getResources().getColor(R.color.white));
holder.titleTextView.setTextColor(App.getContext().getResources().getColor(R.color.turquoise));
holder.statusTextView.setTextColor(App.getContext().getResources().getColor(R.color.grey));
holder.dateTextView.setTextColor(App.getContext().getResources().getColor(R.color.grey));
holder.timeTextView.setTextColor(App.getContext().getResources().getColor(R.color.grey));
}
occurrence.setSelected(!occurrence.isSelected());
((OnOccurrenceSelectedListener)activity).onOccurrenceSelected(mDataSet);
}
});
}
Recyclerview always resuse views while scrolling so you have to store selected positions into temporary arraylist and then keep condition check into onBindViewHolder that whether that particular position is already exists in arraylist or not? I updated your adaper. find the below changes with comment
private List<Occurrence> mDataSet;
private Activity activity;
//Added here temporary ArrayList
private ArrayList<String> mSelectedPosition = new ArrayList<String>;
public <OccurrencesActivity extends OnOccurrenceSelectedListener> OccurrencesAdapter(OccurrencesActivity occurrencesActivity, List<Occurrence> occurrences) {

Its the default behaviour of recyclerview. it will recycle/reuse views which are not in use currently. If you want to save the state which is colored or not. Then save a parameter in your List<Object> per position. and as per position in onBindViewHolder method use that position to change the color.
Try by Setting Tag to your item in onBindViewHolder of Adapter
holder.yourItem.setTag(position);
And then Inside the onClickListener,Just save that position in shared Pref. if it's selected, whenever you set adapter then before setting values just check that is it selected or not based on shared Pref. and perform action for same.
public void onClick(View view) {
if (!occurrence.isSelected()) {
//save position in share pref.
}
}

What is notifyItemRangeChanged(0, this.data.size()); in this example and how does it work?

I understand how a ViewHolder's onBindViewHolder works, however I'm unclear about how notifyItemRangeChanged(0, this.data.size()); works in this example and what it does exactly.
The data that is supplied to this adapter is in Json format.
The adapter is below:
public class AdapterQuestion extends RecyclerView.Adapter<AdapterQuestion.ViewQuestion>{
private LayoutInflater mLayoutInflater;
//this is an arrayList of questionData objects
private ArrayList<QuestionData> data =new ArrayList<>();
//Created the layoutInflator
public AdapterQuestion(Context context){
//get from context
mLayoutInflater=LayoutInflater.from(context);
}
public void setBloglist(ArrayList<QuestionData> data){
this.data =data;
notifyItemRangeChanged(0, this.data.size());
}
#Override
public ViewQuestion onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
//inflates the customQuestion view or converts it to java code
View view= mLayoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.customquestion, null);
//We now want to convert the View into a ViewQuestion, view Question takes
//a view so we pass the view into view question and then return it.
ViewQuestion holder=new ViewQuestion(view);
return holder;
}
//ViewGroup parent and ViewType are not being assigned.
#Override
public void onBindViewHolder(ViewQuestion holder, int position) {
//here we need to bind the data to our view, there is currently no Data!
//We need to get the data from our JSON
//Parameters is a ViewHolder and a Position
//This gives us the current information object from the whole arraylist
//data.get(position) data is the arraylist and we are getting the current position or index;
//That current obj is of Type QuestionData
QuestionData currentObj= data.get(position);
//we are accessing the Inflated view, or saved view with holder
//holder.answerText is the textView in holder. We are then taking that current object
//We are getting the text of the current object and setting it to the AnswerText view
holder.answerText.setText(currentObj.getMtext());
holder.answerId.setText(currentObj.getId());
holder.mVotes.setText(currentObj.getVotes());
holder.mLikeButton.setTag(currentObj);
}
#Override
public int getItemCount() {
return data.size();
}
public class ViewQuestion extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder{
//once we create it once the reclycer view will automatically recycle it
private TextView answerText;
private TextView answerId;
private TextView mVotes;
private LikeButton mLikeButton;
public ViewQuestion (View itemView){
super(itemView);
//here we are finding the views by their ID
answerText=(TextView)itemView.findViewById(R.id.answerText);
answerId=(TextView)itemView.findViewById(R.id.answerId);
mVotes=(TextView)itemView.findViewById(R.id.VoteTextView);
mLikeButton= (LikeButton)itemView.findViewById(R.id.heart_buttons);
mLikeButton.setOnLikeListener(new OnLikeListener() {
#Override
public void liked(LikeButton likeButton) {
Voting vote = new Voting();
vote.onUpVote(convertToString(),
getAdapterPosition(),ViewQuestion.this);
System.out.print("Adapter Position"+getAdapterPosition());
}
#Override
public void unLiked(LikeButton likeButton) {
Voting onDown=new Voting();
onDown.onDownVote(convertToString(),
getAdapterPosition(), ViewQuestion.this);
}
});
}
public String getVoteView(){
String voteView=mVotes.getText().toString();
return voteView;
}
public String convertToString(){
String converted=answerId.getText().toString();
return converted;
}
public int convertToInt(){
String converted=answerId.getText().toString();
int ConvertedInt=Integer.parseInt(converted);
return ConvertedInt;
}
}
}
When the data that is to be set in RecyclerView is changed, the Adapter needs to get notified of the data change so that it can change the data in recyclerview.
The method
notifyItemRangedChanged(fromIndex,toIndex);
is used to notify the adapter that some set of data is changed among the whole data and it tells the adapter that adapter should refresh the data and reload it into the recyclerView starting from fromIndex to toIndex as passed into the method .
use this method if you have multiple data changed but not all , those changed data also are in cluster so that you can say from 5th to 10th index data are changed .
If all data are changed call :
notifyDataSetChanged();
if only one dataItem is changed then call :
notifyItemChanged(dataPosition);
Using notifyItemRangeChanged(0, this.data.size()) it’s bad practice.
Best way is using notifyItemChanged or notifyItemRangeChanged with payload.
Payload - optional parameter (key). That give you opportunity to check what kind of update do you need.
public void onBindViewHolder(/*...*/, List payloads) {
if (payloads.isEmpty()) {
setText(holder, position);
downloadBitmap(holder, position);
} else if (payloads.contains(SET_ONLY_TEXT)){
setText(holder, position);
}
}
In this example payloads used for checking when adapter should update only the text.
in your case you are not doing it(notifyItemRangeChanged) right as you might as well can call notifyDataSetChanged(); because you are telling the adapter that the entire list has changed and not specific position.

ListView list is reversed when selection made

So I had my listview working perfectly then I decided to add a context menu. As soon as I did that whenever I normal clicked an item in my listview, the entire list gets inverted on the first click. Subsequent clicks do nothing to the order, but when the first item is de-selected again the list returns to normal. When I take out the context menu logic that I added, the list view problem does not go away.
I've attached a debugger and the elements in my list adapter are never reordered, and the ListView itself is never set to reverse with .setStackFromBottom()
Here is my onClick listener registered to handle the click events of the list view items:
public void onClick(View v) {
ViewHolder holder = (ViewHolder) v.getTag();
CheckBox b = holder.box;
Boolean check = b.isChecked();
b.setChecked(!check);
if (!check) {
mChecked.add(holder.fu);
if (mChecked.size() == 1) {
buttonLayout.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
}
} else {
mChecked.remove(holder.fu);
if (mChecked.size() == 0) {
buttonLayout.setVisibility(View.GONE);
}
}
}
The viewholder class just holds references to objects I use in the listview for optimizations. I cannot figure out why this is causing my list to invert when displayed, I've tried moving the listener to a different view in the layout, I've tried re-writing the listener, nothing seems to work! Any advice would be appreciated.
Edit: here is the code for the view holder
/** Class to provide a holder for ListViews. Used for optimization */
private class ViewHolder {
TextView date;
TextView gallons;
TextView cost;
TextView cpg;
TextView mpg;
CheckBox box;
FillUp fu;
}
as well as the adapter:
public class FillUpAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
ArrayList<FillUp> mElements;
ArrayList<FillUp> mChecked;
Context mContext;
public FillUpAdapter(Context c, ArrayList<FillUp> data) {
mContext = c;
mElements = data;
mChecked = new ArrayList<FillUp>();
}
public void clearChecked() {
mChecked.clear();
}
public ArrayList<FillUp> getChecked() {
return mChecked;
}
public boolean remove(FillUp f) {
mChecked.remove(f);
return mElements.remove(f);
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return mElements.size();
}
#Override
public Object getItem(int arg0) {
return mElements.get(arg0);
}
#Override
public long getItemId(int arg0) {
return mElements.get(arg0).getId();
}
#Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
LinearLayout layout;
ViewHolder holder;
if (convertView != null) {
layout = (LinearLayout) convertView;
holder = (ViewHolder) layout.getTag();
} else {
layout = (LinearLayout) LayoutInflater.from(mContext).inflate(
R.layout.fillup_list_item, parent, false);
holder = new ViewHolder();
holder.cost = (TextView) layout
.findViewById(R.id.fillUpListTotalValue);
holder.cpg = (TextView) layout
.findViewById(R.id.fillUpListCostPerGal);
holder.gallons = (TextView) layout
.findViewById(R.id.fillUpListGalValue);
holder.mpg = (TextView) layout
.findViewById(R.id.fillUpMPGText);
holder.date = (TextView) layout
.findViewById(R.id.fillUpListDate);
holder.box = (CheckBox) layout
.findViewById(R.id.fillUpListCheckBox);
holder.fu = (FillUp) getItem(position);
layout.setTag(holder);
}
holder.date.setText(holder.fu.getDate());
holder.gallons.setText(holder.fu.getGallonsText());
holder.cpg.setText(holder.fu.getCostText());
holder.cost.setText(holder.fu.getTotalText());
holder.mpg.setText(String.format("%03.1f MPG",holder.fu.getMPG()));
if (convertView != null) {
holder.box.setChecked(mChecked.contains(holder.fu));
}
layout.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
ViewHolder holder = (ViewHolder) v.getTag();
CheckBox b = holder.box;
Boolean check = b.isChecked();
b.setChecked(!check);
if (!check) {
mChecked.add(holder.fu);
if (mChecked.size() == 1) {
buttonLayout.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
}
} else {
mChecked.remove(holder.fu);
if (mChecked.size() == 0) {
buttonLayout.setVisibility(View.GONE);
}
}
}
});
return layout;
}
}
UPDATE:
Ok, so I've narrowed it down to the visibility change on the buttonLayout view, which is a linear layout of buttons on the bottom of the Activity's layout, underneath the ListView. Whenever I change that view's visibility to View.VISIBLE (which happens when the first item is checked) the list's order is reversed. The order is restored when the view's visibility is set to View.GONE
I have no idea what would cause that though :(
After narrowing the scope a bit more, I discovered the problem was not the changing of the visibility of my button bar, but actually the passing around of FillUp objects in holder.fu of my ViewHolder class. By changing that to instead reference the adapter's getItem(position) method, everything seemed to work out. Quite an odd bug, since the adapter itself was not having the order of the elements changed, but passing around a reference to the object made it very unhappy.
If your listview background color changes when you click on it, I think it is about your theme. Just play with the cache color parameters of your listview, here is an example:
<ListView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:id="#android:id/list"
android:scrollingCache="true"
android:persistentDrawingCache="all"
android:cacheColorHint="#0000"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:fastScrollEnabled="true"
android:stackFromBottom="true"
android:smoothScrollbar="true"
android:paddingTop="115dip">
</ListView>
