Inflated view's button onClickListener not responding inside RecyclerView adapter

Question

I've been trying to get button's onClickListener working from inflated layout. I was trying this but nothing happens:

LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater)mContext.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.my_profile_fragment, null);
Button svBtn = (Button) view.findViewById(R.id.saveBtn);

svBtn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(View view) {
        System.out.println("CLICKED");
    }
});

Inside the RecyclerView adapter I inflate the original layout in onCreateViewHolder which has the layout of the cards, and I am able to interact with it:

@Override
public ItemRowHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup viewGroup, int i) {
    View v = LayoutInflater.from(viewGroup.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.single_card, null);

    return new ItemRowHolder(v);
}

But I would like to interact with the button from a different layout (fragment layout). Is that possible, if so how can I achieve that?

Answer 1

try view.getParent() to get your fragment's parent view.

Answer 2

The way you are doing it, unfortunately is not going to work.

Go to your onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder viewholder, int position) method, and use the fields of the viewholder to directly set your click listener there.

@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(final RecyclerView.ViewHolder viewHolder, int position) {
    viewHolder.svBtn.setOnClickListener(this);
}
