Data Binding Not Updating Views After RecyclerView Item Updates in Android 14
I'm upgrading from an older version and I'm facing an issue where the views in my RecyclerView are not updating correctly after changes made via Data Binding. The setup includes a RecyclerView that uses a custom adapter with Data Binding to bind data to its items. When I update the underlying data, the views should reflect those changes, but they remain stale. Here’s a simplified version of my adapter: ```kotlin class MyAdapter(private var items: List<MyData>) : RecyclerView.Adapter<MyAdapter.MyViewHolder>() { override fun onCreateViewHolder(parent: ViewGroup, viewType: Int): MyViewHolder { val binding: ItemLayoutBinding = DataBindingUtil.inflate( LayoutInflater.from(parent.context), R.layout.item_layout, parent, false ) return MyViewHolder(binding) } override fun onBindViewHolder(holder: MyViewHolder, position: Int) { holder.bind(items[position]) } override fun getItemCount(): Int = items.size fun updateData(newItems: List<MyData>) { items = newItems notifyDataSetChanged() } class MyViewHolder(private val binding: ItemLayoutBinding) : RecyclerView.ViewHolder(binding.root) { fun bind(data: MyData) { binding.data = data binding.executePendingBindings() } } } ``` I’m calling `updateData()` after modifying the list, but the UI is not reflecting the changes. I’ve also tried using `notifyItemChanged()` for specific positions, but it doesn’t seem to have any effect. The `MyData` class has observable fields, and I’m using `@Bindable` for properties within it. Here’s an example of how I’m creating my data objects: ```kotlin class MyData(private val name: String) : BaseObservable() { @Bindable fun getName() = name fun updateName(newName: String) { // This should notify the change name = newName notifyPropertyChanged(BR.name) } } ``` I even checked if the Data Binding library is properly included in my `build.gradle`: ```groovy android { buildFeatures { dataBinding true } } ``` Despite all this, the UI doesn’t update when I modify the data. I’m testing this on Android 14. Any insights on what might be going wrong here? My development environment is Windows. Thanks in advance! What's the correct way to implement this?
