Recyclerview adapter methods not called after updating compilesdkversion to 27

Question

I have an existing adapter class which have android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView and android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout inside a android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout parent. See below.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:background="@color/background_grey"
style="@style/layoutParent">


<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
    android:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar">

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:background="@drawable/bg_red_blue_gradient"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:orientation="vertical"
        android:paddingLeft="@dimen/_8sdp"
        android:paddingStart="@dimen/_8sdp"
        android:paddingRight="@dimen/_8sdp"
        android:paddingEnd="@dimen/_8sdp"
        app:layout_collapseMode="none"
        app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|enterAlwaysCollapsed">

        <com.android.somecustomlayout
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

    </LinearLayout>


    <com.android.someothercustomlayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>


<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_marginTop="@dimen/_5sdp"
    android:layout_marginLeft="@dimen/_5sdp"
    android:layout_marginStart="@dimen/_5sdp"
    android:layout_marginRight="@dimen/_5sdp"
    android:layout_marginEnd="@dimen/_5sdp"
    android:layout_marginBottom="?attr/actionBarSize"
    app:layout_behavior="@string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior" />

</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>

This is the code of adapter class

public class ABC extends RecyclerView.Adapter<RecyclerView.ViewHolder> {

private ArrayList<ResultModel> mResultModel;
private Context mContext;

public ABC (Context context, ArrayList<ResultModel> resultModel) {
    mContext = context;
    this.mResultModel = resultModel;

     mParams = LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
}


@Override
public RecyclerView.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
    View headerView = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.abc, parent, false);
    return new RowItemViewHolder(headerView);
}

@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(final RecyclerView.ViewHolder holder, @SuppressLint("RecyclerView") int position) {

    RowItemViewHolder rowItemViewHolder = (RowItemViewHolder) holder;

rowItemViewHolder.textview.settext(mResultModel.get(position).mName.get(0));
 //   computations and logic for views


}

@Override
public int getItemCount() {
    if (null != ResultModel) {
        return mResultModel.size();
    } else {
        return 0;
    }
}



}


@Override
public void onViewDetachedFromWindow(RecyclerView.ViewHolder holder) {
    super.onViewDetachedFromWindow(holder);
    holder.itemView.clearAnimation();
}



private static class RowItemViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {

    private textview textview1;
.....

    RowItemViewHolder(View itemView) {
        super(itemView);

textview = (textview) itemView.findViewById(R.id.some_id_here);

}


/**
 * Method help to set listener on {@link ResultRowItemListener}
 *
 * @param itemListener instance of {@link ResultRowItemListener}
 */
public void setResultRowItemListener(ResultRowItemListener itemListener) {
    mRowItemClickListener = itemListener;
}

/**
 * Listener that provide method on row item click
 */
public interface FlightSearchResultRowItemListener {
    void onResultRowItemClick(ResultModel ResultModel, int position);
}
}

Everything was working fine until I updated compileSdkVersion from 23 to 27. Also i updated buildToolsVersion, com.android.support:appcompat-v7, com.android.support:support-v4, com.android.support:design, com.android.support:cardview-v7,com.android.support:recyclerview-v7 to 27.1.1.

See the build.gradle below

 apply plugin: 'com.android.library'

        keyAlias 
        keyPassword 
        storeFile file('')
        storePassword ''
    }
    debug {
        keyAlias 
        keyPassword 
        storeFile file('')
        storePassword ''
    }
}

}

After this my recyclerview is rendered blank. When I tried to debug the adapter class, only the constructor of the class is called and debug never reaches to any of the adapter methods like onCreateViewHolder & onBindViewHolder.

After some investigation, i come to few conclusion I like to share:

If in the adapter layout, for RecyclerView if i change width and height to lets say 500dp each, I can see the list but not when they are match_parent.
If instead of CoordinatorLayout as parent, i changed to Relativelayout, the listview is visible but not with CoordinatorLayout .

I have already looked into other solutions like Recyclerview not call any Adapter method :onCreateViewHolder,onBindViewHolder,

But they are not helping as problem is only appearing after updating compilesdkversion to 27.

Debug and check return values of getItemCount(). I think its returning 0 — Harin, Jul 20 '18 at 10:16
@Harry I did checked getItemCount() is non-zero. Interestingly I also observed that after notifyDataSetChanged() is called when applying sort for list results the list somehow appears — Dhiraj Sharma, Jul 20 '18 at 11:54
