databinding for rescue

[adeln]

xml? or do you mean something else?

[adambl4]

no, I mean bind data to views on the spot. This eliminates need of storing its references to local variables

[adambl4]

for example

textView {
rxJavaObservable.subcsribe(this::setText)
}

[adeln]

can you do this for recyclerview ?

[adambl4]

you mean in ViewHolder?

[adeln]

yes, viewholder + recycling

[adambl4]

yes, why not

[adeln]

i’m not sure how though, because the recyclerview gets it’s updates through notify* methods

[adeln]

I mean you need to somehow populate the viewholder first

[adambl4]

view gets a set of observables and subscribes to it. That's all. Then you push data to that observables from your recycler view adapter

[adeln]

have you ever tried doing that ?

[adambl4]

I'm using such approach for a long time. The implementation is a bit tricky and dirty to share it here
